    I said it before...it always comes down to money...

    I tried to tell you this a year ago!!!

    I'm not hating on Manny...I'm not into that. But the fact is no matter how much money he is gauranteed top rank gets 27% and gbp gets 25%...he's not seeing the same money Floyd is getting...this is why the fight is not happening...the drug test is legit from Team Mayweather and Manny in my opinion would have accepted the test a long time ago but it Arum is telling Manny what to do...this is the exact reason why Arum got rid of VisionQuest...Top Rank pretty much priced themselves out of the fight when asked for 50 split...in boxing theres no way he deserves 50 split when Floyd has done better ppv numbers against common opponents...Manny has sold more ppv's in last few years becauses he's fighting twice a year...Arum has tricked a lot of Manny fans in the Mosley fight by having showtime do the fight knowing that they would not be able to do accurate ppv buys and have to go public with the numbers...to this day showtime has not released numbers on the fight...if the fight happens which i think it will...Manny would not get what he deserves for fighting in the biggest ppv event in the history of the sport...if you do your home work it was Floyd who was the first to get ppv revenue when he fought Oscar...I'm just pointing out what it really is...I think Manny has started to smart up and thats why he called in VisionQuest to force Arums hand getting a bigger purse...Real Talk

      This is one of the more reasonable things I've heard on NSB. I didn't realize Pac was so financially screwed relative to Mayweather and what he deserves.

        That's a possibility too.

        Even though money may not be the king in Manny's life, he should get what he deserves. But being bound by two contracts that allow digging into your pockets in every fight has got to of concern.

        Perhaps, Many doesn't care as much since he appreciates the treatment he's received thus far career-wise.

          Well Manny has recently said that profit sharing meaning purse split needs to be worked out...so he does care about the money and he's starting to think about his future knowing that he is interested in other things besides boxing just like Floyd...like the old saying goes..."work smarter not harder"

              Is this a fact? I see it thrown around here quite a bit, but how true is it?
