Comments Thread For: Mayweather Rejects Pacquiao's 50-50 Proposal For May 5

[bMak]

Mayweather: Has only fought 5 times in 5 years.
Ortiz... Controversial KO...4rds
Mosley...12rd UD win
JMM...12rd UD win...( controversial weight issue/came in heavy/heavier fight night)
Haton...TKO in round10.
DLH...Split Decision win 12rds
Five fights...Five years! 7ppv fights in 7years....hold that thought......

Manny Pacquiao: has fought 7 times within 3 years.
JMM... Decision win 12 rd
Mosley...UD win 12rd
Margarito...UD win 12rd (beatdown)
Clottey...UD win 12rd
Cotto...KO in 12 (beatdown)
HAtton...KO in 2 (out cold)
DLH...tko in 8 (no mas)

And Floyd thinks he deserves more than 50/50!!!! lol Not only did he beat everyone Floyd fought, more convincingly...he fought three Floyd retired (ducked) to keep from fighting!

Activity has absolutely nothing to do with the money split. You have to be trolling. If that were the case, Ortiz, Mosley and Marquez should've been paid more than Floyd.

OH and for the people that say manny does nto deserve50/50 ths fight has been a 50/50 split every time it was negotiated and it was never an issue, evne during this turn of negotiating it wasnt an issue untill now, not to mention pac has drew more ppv numbers recently, they both deserve 50/50, screw both of them

[switchsouthpaw]

pacquiao just don't want to fight mayweather. he does'nt deserve a 50-50 split and he sure as hell don't want to fight on may 5th.this is just another pacquiao ducking move..

Ironic since Mayweather once said he'd accept the 50/50 split, then came up with some other bull**** and threw it into the mix.

[spoonwars]

In the end, it's Floyd ducking Manny, as it has always been. That's why *****s love Floyd.

Testing is issue is gone and now we have another one.

Typical Floyd.

At this stage there should be no argument about percentages. 50/50 is good.

[treason1]

i heard that the fat guy on jim rome just ripped mayweather a new one !!!!!!!!!!!! anyone see the segmant and can comfirm it !!!!!!!!!

[Calabis]

This, I don't agree with.

This fight's 50-50. Both are the biggest cash cows and neither side will accept any less than 50-50 and I'm sure they both know it.

Mayweather should make a statment today and clarify if he wants 50-50 or not.

Because I thought Manny said 50-50 was ok?

Also, just last week Mayweather said 50-50 is ok.

So, it would be wrong to reject 50-50 at this point.

50-50 purse split he's is ok, 50-50 overall revenue he's not...Floyd is not going to share sponsorship money and investments he has brought into the fight...as I said before, he has always been guareented a purse, but he also makes money on side with sponsorships and promotions..why the hell should he share this money with Pac....Pac has his own sponsors and promotions

look at the Ortiz fight

50/50 is the right call, Mayweather says he's not the one ducking and claims Arum is looking for reasons to not make the fight happen. Now no 50/50, Come on... This is gunna be the fight of the century...

this guy still doesn't get it. mayweather is not the crowd drawer. it's his opponents. fans who see his fights want to see him lose. fans are finally realizing this. look at his last fight. it didn't even make 700k in ppv sales.

mayweather is a boring boxer. he's not the kind of boxer you'll want your friends to see. it's no wonder why companies don't ask him to endorse their products. wake up man.
