Comments Thread For: Mayweather Confirms No 50-50: 'Pacquiao Wants More?'

[War Dinamita]

We were here, just kept low-keyed...

I mean the *****s were out with their six-shooters drawn, firing in the air like madmen, while ravaging any women (*******s) in sight...

Now same *****s are in hiding, with their pea-shooter spewing "Manny said he'll take the lesser cut...".

Floyd calling Manny out on the lesser purse split is like Manny calling Floyd out on the 14 day cut-off while it's clear that they moved on from that stance.

Explain to me why Manny has the right to demand a 50/50 split purse when Floyd is not under contract with Arum, TR, or anyone else?

Are you forgetting Arum and Manny stating in interviews that Arum would guaranteed Pac's purse, but Floyd had to find his own guaranteed purse?

Manny had already agreed to take less money to take the fight happen and then later says he's not taking less than 50/50. So why even make those comments to the media if he wasn't being honest? He just said those comments because he didn't want to look like a fool to the fans.

So, you are blaming " both " now ?



BTW, your post looks like a traffic light, so I turned it off ^^

Man, I am not reading that whiney dribble.

Nothing you said changes the bottom line.....

THE LIE:
" I will take less money " ~ Pacquiao
THE TRUTH
" 50/50 or no fight " ~ Pacquiao

THE LIE:
" making the fight is more important than the money " ~ Pacquiao
THE TRUTH
" I cannot fight on May 5th, because we need to build a new stadium in order to maximize revenue " ~ Pacquiao

Those two lies, plus Arum's big box of ridiculous excuses..... the cut, investors, the date, Mayweather's guarantee, the venue, blah, blah..... proves that Team Pacquiao don't want the fight..... even though Mayweather punked Manny in front of the world.

And Bob Arum is Manny's official promoter, his words are representative..... to insinuate otherwise is childish.

Pac personally stated that he wanted Mayweather so bad that he was prepared to take less money, because "making that fight is more important than the money"..... then, not only did he insist upon a 50/50 split, he publicly admitted that it was a sticking point that would kill the fight.

That is not changing you mind dude, that is lying through your arse.

=====================================

This lie is sig-worthy, you cannot justify it because it does not mention a split, Team Pacquiao just don't want that fight.....

THE LIE:
" making the fight is more important than the money "
~ Manny Pacquiao, in the Philippines

THE TRUTH
" I cannot fight on May 5th, because we need to build a new stadium in order to maximize revenue "
~ Manny Pacquiao, in the US

=====================================

BTW, Pac deserves an even split, and Mayweather is a ball-dropper who cannot be taken seriously unless he concedes a 50/50 split in return for May 5th within the next couple of days, because time is running out.

Just look at Teddy Atlas and what he said in the other thread. Kinda what I said. Floyd can't go back when he has his own "history" of words that can be slung in his direction.

Ooops, LeadUpperCut is banned .... but I'm sure he will be back.

Explain to me why Manny has the right to demand a 50/50 split purse when Floyd is not under contract with Arum, TR, or anyone else?

50/50 split is for revenue... think of it as a split between Floyd and Arum.
Out of Arum's 50%, he'll pay Manny his guarantee and whatever PPV upside he is entitled to.

Are you forgetting Arum and Manny stating in interviews that Arum would guaranteed Pac's purse, but Floyd had to find his own guaranteed purse?

On that same interview you are referring to, Arum said split revenue 50/50 down the middle... I guarantee Manny's purse and you find someone to guarantee yours (Floyd).

Manny had already agreed to take less money to take the fight happen and then later says he's not taking less than 50/50. So why even make those comments to the media if he wasn't being honest? He just said those comments because he didn't want to look like a fool to the fans.

Manny can still take less, by getting a much smaller guarantee from Arum.

And for those who says that Floyd funds his own promotion, that's what you call "cost".
If Floyd spends $20m in promotion and Arum spends $5m is irrelevant... They will get those back and whatever is left is called "revenue" and it is split 50/50.

I always knew Floyd would find another excuse to duck Pac. Pac never indicated that Floyd refused Pac's 50-50 split when they talked on the phone. Floyd just conveniently answered back a few days after the phone call via espn that he wont do 50-50...

now that's clearly ducking
