Dont be a ***in tard.

Excuse me???

[treason1]

when manny said he would accept a smaller purse he was going on the premise of building a outdoor venue !!! that would maximize profits !!!!!!!! but since mayweather is tring to force manny in to a corner by making him fight on may 5th , he has every right to ask for a 50/50 split !!!!!!!!! because the mgm would be cosiderably smaller than the propose temparary stadium and manny would not only loose out on a potential extra 50 mill but then he would have to take a smaller share of the purse !!!!! and any unbiased fan can see that is just not fair !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! the only people that thinks its fair are die hard floyd fanatics !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Excuse me???

You've got eyes, dont you?

[Dempsey-Roll]

Just like how Floyd said "Pacquiao youre next!"
Then changes his tune after that.

This is no different.

The fight has always been 50/50. Floyd should just take it if he really wants the fight.

You've got eyes, dont you?

Harrassment of staff is strictly prohibited and stated in the rules.

Really, ree****yaluss?

If this is true, you should all be ****ing ashamed if you don't awknowledge that it is a blatant duck move by Floyd.

I was man enough to state earlier on that TR was acting like ****s, and preventing the fight from happening. But if this indeed is true, you should be ****ing ashamed for not keeping it real and condemning Floyd. I'm still don't sure if I believe it though.

Really what?.....

He said it because hes a boxer, they'll say they'll fight a bear to the press. Hilarious how people have jumped on this like it actually means anything. Everyone knows its a 50/50 split. And everyone (including Floyd) knows Arum would never accept anything less.

Why give Mayweather or anyone for that matter ammo though?

Why bother saying I'll take less of the cut? Obviously he's not going to.

That's something Mayweather would never say. 'I'll take less of the cut'.

There's a long list of fighters who wouldn't say that at this point in such a big fight.

But all in all I agree with what you're saying. The fight's 50-50 and Mayweather should accept 50-50 if he wants the fight.

[Eaner0919]

this is what I don't get

Manny allegedly states this and all the Mannyiacs go into a tizzy about Floyd don't want it

so now Mayweather calls Manny's bluff and it's Floyd's fault? Manny should have allegedly kept his mouth shut about splits and let his team negotiate that

[THE REED]

I just don't get why he would say he would take less, only to come back and say he wants 50-50 now...

now Im not saying Floyd is right for wanting more than 50% (even though I made a thread after Pac pulled the offer that it could cause trouble since Pac volunteered doing that without anyone even sayig anything) but that outdoor venue you speak of has nothing to do with it. He said that before the outdoor stuff even came up again.

You cant be so naive enough to think he was considering all those other factors. He said it, he meant it, and thats it. Floyd is ok to hold him accountable for that but if Pac & Arum dont move on it (which they wont) then Floyd cant let that be the only thing to hold a fight up.

Ellerbe just said that there are no other things to stop the fight and everything is agreed on. If thats the case then Floyd cant let money or the legal case Pac has against him hold the fight up even though Floyd really isnt in the wrong in either case since Pac did volunteer on the pay cut and the legal case is a punk move
