Comments Thread For: Mayweather: Pacquiao is Not Getting 50-50, No One Is!

TRUE....I can't understand WHY, El FRAUDO, keeps PUNKING OUT!!!

Because he knows Manny will best that asz

[jbpanama]

Just shows you how ****** that Negro from the hood is. He wouldn't fight Manny if Pacquiao took 40% and let Floyd take 60%. Manny already offered 40%/40% and the winner gets another 10%, and Floyd wouldn't even take that. All Floyd has to do is win the fight; obviously he's short on confidence. Floyd Mayweather is a joke, he's not credible. Leonard, Hagler, Hearns, Duran, Arguello, would have made the fight in a heartbeat, and they did in their day. That's why they are legends, and Floyd never will be no matter what his record is. Tell Floyd he needs to grow a pair.

He has a PAIR, there just not BIG ENOUGH!!!

Correction: I meant to state Manny offered Floyd a 45/45 split, and the winner gets the other 10%. Floyd balked at the idea. This is the problem with Boxing. Divas like Runaway Floyd, never want to fight the best of the best, in their primes, multiple times if need be. Gutless fighters like Floyd try to be "strategic", by "hand-picking" the "right opponent". A guy that fits their style perfectly. One dimensional, preferrably leads with their chin, preferably one having fought too many wars, one past their prime, a big name opponent, up in years past their better days, OR one much smaller, you can lure or bait up to your natural weight class. The easiest and safest route to the bank, the least risk to maintain an undefeated record. Protect your image by calling others out, then make demands you know the other fighter would never agree to, so to save face, and never face the best of the best; but you can attempt to hunt down the media to tell them all about your "attempts" to make the best fights. That's Floyd Mayweather to a tee. Roy Jones Jr was the same way, until he misjudged a hand picked tomatoe can, and got violently knocked out; then knocked out several more times since. That's the same thing that will happen to Runaway Floyd if he ever grows a pair and fights someone credible. He's banking Cotto (big name), has had too many wars (he has), is well past his prime (he is), and that's why that fight was made, and in three years Floyd has never had the balls to go fight Pacquiao, or even Shane Mosley or Cotto back in their primes. It took Floyd 10 years to fight Mosley and Cotto, because they werent beyond their prime yet.

TRUE,FRAUD is doing his Best to RUIN the Sport!!!

Offered 55-45 to the ppv of the winner is what was said. Mayweather said that discussion didnt take place

We talking about guarantee numbers. Pac declined. Its no arguing there. Now he's fighting Tim for a guarantee of what ?

And ppl stop talking about 50-50, Floyd been said 50-50 is off the table before his fight with Ortiz. So yall beating a dead old horse

This fight is a potential 160mil+ PPV buys with potential gate receipt of 70-80mil, that is all excluding additional pays from sponsorships, so all in all, it is a potential 250-280mil superfight, half of that is 125-140mil... Even if you take out Arum's cut, the remaining would far exceeds the supposed 40million guarantee by Floyd... 40mil out of a 280mil revenue is so not fair!!! It's not even a 70-30 split!!! And as far as the Ortiz fight, OSDT was only the concern, Floyd said if Manny will submit to FULL OSDT, then we have a fight... So WTF now???!!! If i am Floyd and i am so sure that i'll KTFO this overhyped midget, i will take up on his challenged of 55-45 purse split with the winner taking the lion's share, with that in the system, i will surely be taking home more than he is....

No one should get more then the man who turned boxing into a PED circus for the past few years.. Floyd should get the bigger share for making these negotiations a BIG CIRCUS from day one.. Floyd should get the bigger share because he is the only fighter concerned with cleaning up the sport of boxing.. By the way, does anyone know what Floyd has done to clean up the sport? SMH..

[ChewLeather]

I just don't know why Floyd putting yet another roadblock which is for Manny to leave Arum?

What the f has that to do with the fight? Another clear indication that Floydie doesn't want the fight.

Damn diva.

[Mikimoto22]

I think they should both stop talking about it. No one believes Floyd and Manny only talks to the Lord - who cares anymore. And please Floyd, stop talking about yourself in the 3rd person - you sound like a douche..

[jcpryor]

When you actually go back and look at some of the videos where Mayweather talks about Pacquiao in the past, he actually hasn't changed his stance on the split. He's always said that he believes he deserves more money in interviews. Not saying that its right, but he hasn't flip flopped. Perhaps if they both actually sit down and have a legit negotiation he'll agree to a 50/50 like in the last negotiations. However, at this point, both camps are full of **** as far as I'm concerned.

Well said. That's a green K and 1 million points for you.

Floyd is undefeated who outclassed the man who schooled pacquiao 3 times so everybody can still bash floyd for whatever reason in the end fighters decide who they wanna fight so floyd wanted to guarantee him 40 million ok so whats the problem?? Read april's edition of the ring magazine pg.50 seth abraham said in the end fighters make the fights not the promoters not the cable networks who pay them the fighters.
