Comments Thread For: Mayweather Explains Why 'He Can't' Give Pacquiao 50-50

[Scarab]

AND FLOYD IS LIKE I aint splitting 50/50 with your ass, simply to get BOB A BIGGER SHARE. Pac wouldnt even end up with 75 -80 million like floyd. SIMPLE MATHEMATICS PROVE ME RIGHT ON THAT. Its not like Bob does some heavy ass advertising..

Why does Floyd envy Bob? Manny is asking 50/50, which is FAIR. Now, whatever Manny does with his 50%, it's NONE of Floyd's fcking business.

Take the test, Manny

[The Big Dunn]

Everyone is, only Big Dunn buys Floyd's lies now.

Floyd would rather fight Martinez at middleweight than Pacquiao.

Why?

Because Floyd know Pacquiao has his number.

Only to manny fans does an offer of $40 mil, while extremely low given the expoected revenue, amounts to fear. Greed yes. Fear no.

I'm so close of living BOXING! I've been a boxing fan for 30 years and I've never been this disappointed!

I don't mind Pacquiao-Mayweather fight not happening...
As long as Mayweather stops "CLAIMING" that his the best fighter!

It bothers really bothers me... It's an insult to all the true Boxing Greats who fought everybody in their time!

How come manny/bradley isn't 50/50? since 50/50 is fair. Wait I know, because manny is the much bigger draw.

Is it not clear yet that Mayweather has no "character", and no dignity?

He asked for a complicated set of drug testing; finally, Pac gave in to all his different demands. Still not enough. Afraid that Pac would agree to a reasonable offer--45/45 with winner getting an extra 10%--Floyd put in the ridiculous offer of a flat $40 million...when everyone knows that the bout will clear over $200 million; so he's looking for an 80/20 split in reality.

That sap is afraid: he knows that Pac will risk getting knocked out but that he will come at him with everything and he (Floyd) will not be able to stand up to it. And why would he? He's got no spine--you need "character" for that.

How does floyd talking ****, calling himself the greatest to hype his fights and expand his brand an insult to old time fighters? Ali said he was the grfeatest after Liston, not the 3rd frazier fight. Was that an insult?

[Spacey1991]

This fight ain't happening, neither of them are eager to fight eachother.

[goldenbear]

Pac shouldn't expect 50-50

Floyd is a boxer promoter. Arum is a promoter. Pac is a boxer. Floyd wears two hats. Pac doesn't get any backend revenue from Arum his promoter. Floyd is giving him an extra $10-20$ mil more than he usually makes. Depending on who he's fighting. Now Pac who isn't putting up any money to pay for the promotion wants part of Floyd's promoter money. Doesn't matter who you like you would be crazy if you're Floyd to agree to that.

Ali fought the best, Mayweather has done everything he can not too.

And who on Mayweather's record even comes close to Ali beating Liston, not even mentioning the style Ali did it in.

Mayweather ducking has bought shame on boxing, the sooner this guy retires and leaves the sport for good the better it will be for the sport.
