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

[ChewLeather]

Wait...Are you saying Oscar is known as the Golden Boy cuz' of his PPV numbers?

I don't believe Oscar had Golden hair like Goldilocks, do you?

That's what I have known, he is called Golden Boy because he generates PPV's in his generation.

Or was he called Golden Boy because he was found out to be gay?

Educate me.

Both of them will earn 2000 USD. Simple as that. Whether you worked once or twice to get 2000 USD, the fact remains that both of them earned the same amount.

But going back to the topic. Who has more PPV, Floyd or Pac? Does it matter who did most PPV events or who did sell more PPV buys?

Another direct question. What's youre stand on all this fiasco? Does Pac deserve 50/50 or not?

Of course Pac deserves 50/50. However, he did say he would agree to a lesser split. I think this is just posturing and we will see this fight worked out. Basically Mayweather is trying to keep some sort of leverage for whatever reason. It will end up being something reasonable.

Pac has sold more PPVs by sheer volume. Floyd has outsold Manny by almost 400,000 PPV per event on average. They are both PPV powerhouses so your "Manny sells more PPV" position is pretty much the weakest argument because he technically doesn't sell more PPVs than Mayweather.

But will that change the fact that Manny OUTSOLD Floyd in PPV totals?

Do think that in this stage of their careers Floyd will outsell Pac's total PPV's knowing that fact that Pac fights TWICE a year and Pac's last PPV outsold Floyd's?

In my opinion, NO. The gap of their PPV numbers will go further in favor of Pac.


Another Fun Fact. Tyson sold 12.4 million PPV's in 12 events having an average of 1,030,000 buys per event.

Why is ODLH still considered the Golden Boy and having the most PPV's when he averages ONLY 700,000 (12.6 Million in 18 events)?

"BECAUSE HE SOLD MORE. - It's not rocket science my friend."

I think what I'm presenting here only DEBUNKS *****s reasoning that Floyd should not accept a 50/50 split but demand more.

Despite how popular Oscar was as a fighter he only cracked 1 million ppvs 3 times, and one of those was with Floyd...I totally understand what your saying...total total total...If we were talking pay checks everybody would agree...dont give me more hours pay me more per hour!

with all that said the fight should be 50-50

He's called the Golden Boy because his smile and "good looks".

Or maybe he was called the Golden boy cuz' of the Gold medal he won in the Olympics. And, the story going into the Olympics made him a quite popular before even becoming a pro. His looks and image that he portrayed?

Hence why they were thinking making his pro debut against Chicanito Hernandez. Because, they saw him as the Golden Boy. He had that nickname before even headlining a PPV.

This is the first time I read anyone saying he was called the Golden Boy because he sold the most PPV(total, not average) ever.

If that's then case then when Floyd or Pac pass him up(total). Are either or both going to be known as the Golden boy? smh at the logic.

[LeadUppercut]

i dont think Floyd ducked Manny because he refused the blood test. That was a while ago. Manny has agreed to the blood test to make this fight. Thats over with now. I was just saying the list of excuses you listed are past now and that the reason we are not fighting is due to the Money issue.

No, the date is the reason, you will see that in the next couple of days.

If Floyd agrees to 50/50, Arum will kill the fight because of the date.

Just wait dude, you will see.

[LeadUppercut]

Again, you appear to be patient with Floyd even though he confirmed what was stated earlier. So now if Floyd changes his mind you are OK, right? Well, Manny now accepted Floyd's demand of OST, right?

Maybe you need to make those 5+ points about why is Floyd not more aggressive in making this fight happen for 2+ years now!

Floyd called Manny a punk BUT:
- Floyd didn't just request OST, he has accused Manny of PEDs.

- Floyd OK with 14 days cut-off just to make the fight happen.... later, no way!

- Floyd also said no to 50/50 because he heard something said by Manny to the media over a month ago ... dynamics have changed since then Floyd! A bit later, Arum met with Manny and probably said "that's not how we negotiate Manny!" and you need to fight on May 5th or no fight! "Therefore we lose out on extra stadium generating money ...."

- Floyd has said no fight until Manny drops the suit.

- Floyd said, "Manny you are NEXT" ... a bit later said "I never said Manny is next"

- Floyd/Ellerbe .... There was no talk about the fight when Koncz came to the gym ...later, Floyd states that he spoke to Koncz on several occasions EVEN the time that Konz went to their gym. So I guess Ellerbe was lying?

- Same with these investors talk. Never happened? AGAIN you hear Floyd say "Yo, speaking of Koncz and these investors, I was actually contacted by one of them investors who explained their offer to me."

- Floyd gives May5th must date ... that's OK but Arum putting deadlines ... NOT a word from Floyd! Hibernation!

- Floyd, I am taking a long vacation so I'm not planning to fight Manny or anyone else.

- Floyd calls Manny a punk and to fight on May 5th because Floyd is handcuffed with that date. Therefore, losing out on the bigger stadium generated money ... OK, no problem Floyd .... but now, Floyd comes back and says, "But Manny wants 50/50 ..."

Mayweather called Manny out regarding statements Pac made to the media.

Mayweather punked Manny again for talking utter **** to the fawning Filipino media.

Mayweather knew that Manny was talking ****, so he called him out on it.

And guess what, Manny got punked again, that is what happens when you talk ****.

Yes it is a little disappointing, but highly likely to be just leverage on the date.

Manny got caught red-handed talking ****, we don't know if Mayweather will concede on the split as yet.

If Mayweather concedes in the next day or so, then Pac is looking like a real b1tch..... if not, then Mayweather just wasted everyone's time and should have gone straight to jail without passing GO.
