Comments Thread For: Pacquiao Shocker: I'll Take Less Money Than Mayweather

[Brother Jay]

why is Pac flip flopping?

That's ^^^ exactly what I'd like to know.

Pitiful.

*******s argue with the facts even when its in their faces.

Just freakin' pathetic.

bump, let the tards wallow in their own sorrow.

Does anyone else feel like this is just lip service for the fanboys? It feels entirely like they are posturing to announce JMM 4 or Tim Bradley. Another duck and lies from Team Pac incoming.

Hahahahaha! Spot on.

Because he shook.

[SCUD.]

Floyd also said 50/50 before, then he backtracked.

After all said and done this fight should be 50/50, who thinks otherwise is a fanboy!

Floyd also said 14 day cut off was fine, then he changed his mind.
Floyd also said $$ wasn't an issue, then he changed his mind.
Floyd also said Pacquiao was next, then he changed his mind.

but that's business/negotiations right?

Floyd actually never did say 50/50. He's always suggested that he thought he should get a bigger share of the revenue. Everyone thought money would be an issue going into the negotiations in 2009, but he agreed to 50/50 pretty quickly. If both camps actually sat down and had a legit negotiation, Floyd would still probably agree to a 50/50 in the end.

At the end of the day, Mayweather is his own boss and Pacquiao is just a fighter. If you really think about it, it isn't really a smart business move for Mayweather to publicly say that he'll accept a 50/50 split when they haven't actually legitimately negotiated since 2009. After all, he CAN make an argument for why he should get a bigger share, even though I personally think this is a 50/50 fight.

Let us say Floyd agreed to 50/50.

50% goes to Mayweather pocket

Pacquaios 50% we all know a large part of it will go to his promoter and 10% of that 50% will also goes to his trainer Roach and Ariza. Now after the deduction Pac might only get less than half of it but Floyd is greedy who wants to take those percentage as well.

[thuggery]

damn according to the media pac is a man of his word.

Guess this proves that he isn't
