Comments Thread For: Teddy Atlas: Mayweather Should Give Pacquiao The 50-50

[Jayallday9]

There's no way in hell Floyd should give him 50/50!! Bob arum has been touting Pac as the man to beat FLoyd, and these "fans" didn't care about Pac until then. Manny didn't earn his way to even be in this position, except for the brilliant marketing of Arum!! For some reason logic goes out the window when it comes to Pac and for you act like all those weight drained fighters who USED to be important when pac beats them tells me not to even respond..Other than pure hated, why in the world would the undefeated champ who is the heavy betting favorite have to give 50/50 to someone who everyone thinks will lose????Floyd knows arum will rip Manny off,Manny knows it too(visionQuest), so if I'm Floyd I am in no rush to give that greedy Arum millions of dollars especially when your cash cow is a media creation who used my name to get here!!

Just saw on the news Mayweather wants 70/30 split. This fight is not gonna happen!!

[Chopper417]

I absolutely agree that Mayweather should give Pac a 50/50 and make the fight happen. I am still confused though as to if Arum has actually agreed to have the fight on May 5th or not. Mayweather is not going to fight on any other date besides May 5th, so if Arum has not agreed to May 5th it really doesn't matter if 50/50 is agreed to or not.

[WESS]

No, everyone assumed he wpuld take 50/50 cuz he actually agreed to it before.

Pac didnt agree to a damn thing, he just said something. Big difference.

Just like he said he agreed to testing for the past 2 years?

Pretty much. You agree to something when you negotiate a fight. No negotiations have taken place. Pacquiao saying "I take less money" to a journalist doesn't mean *****. But the Mayweather fans will cling to it as hard as they cling to his ball sack.

If these guys are so confident they will beat each other whay don't winner take 70 and loser get 30 percent! They are both frauds and in for the cash, not the sport! Reminds of a fight I was in with a bully! By the time he told me all the rules before he beat me up, I knew he was all talk, never really wanted to fight. I kicked his ass!!! Somebody is a bull ****er here.....

look at the *****s trying to defend floyd even when they know 50/50 is the right thing to do at this point. what makes u guys think floyd deserve more than pac after all this??? instead of calling floyd out u guys are here defending him in his favor for a bigger split??? wtf?? do u guys actually want to see this fight? just a few weeks ago u see all these pac fans calling manny out putting pressure on manny to make the fight happen with floyd on may 5th. now look at u guys cant even stand up for urself and tell your boy floyd that 50/50 is the right thing instead u guys are on here saying floyd deserve more?? LOL!!

if team pac doesnt agree to may 5th then i can see the split in favor of floyd. BUT if team pac agree on may 5th then its gotta be 50/50. theres no other way around it. why would team pac agree to floyd's date and also agree to take less?? LOL!!

Yeah I agree, they should fight May5th and the split should be 50/50, simple.
