      It's the same thing. Is not even a counter offer. It's the same offer. And, Floyd only wants to offer him a flat amount with no upside.

      BTW, that's pretty much saying thanks but no thanks.

        Didn't you hear?

        Yeah I did. Funny, manny came up with that right after Martinez offered floyd 80% to fight. God didn't tell manny to pay his taxes or stop cheating on his wife with hookers, or stop ******** but stop earning a living.

        Yeah, right.

          Nice damage control though.
          Bob offered Mayweather 50 Mil gurantee after Pac was offered 40 Mil.

          In fact Pac even said something along of, winner takes 60/40 or something.

              Arent the Pac fans usually complaining about Mayweather using Pac name to promote his fight and here we are arguing about something that Pac ALREADY said till it came down to it and allowing him to use Floyd name to maybe promote his fight that no one seems to care about including himself.

                  It isn't the same thing.

                  A gurantee comes from the promotional company. Whatever they offer you will get, and if you do good then they may pay you more.

                  In terms of 50/50 on the PPV, Pac will have a gurantee of say 10 Mil. If it doesn't hit a certain cap then that's all he gets paid. If it hits more then he gets a % of whatever is the extra.

                  Basically asking for 50/50 on the PPV is a good deal, since Mayweather may negotiate he gets more of a gurantee.

                  So he may say to Pac, I get 20 mil gurantee, you get 10.

                    I am a Pacquaio fan and actually from 2009+ It was Floyd fans who kept saying Pac used Floyd's name, and the Pac fans retaliated. Strange thing was, Pac didn't even talk about Floyd much since he was retired a few times so I don't even know why they accused him of using Floyd's name.

                      Who cares??? I'm focused and excited for Mayweather-Cotto at 154 and Pacquiao-Bradley. If Pac loses or gets another questionable decision against Bradley, he'll lose any shot of getting even 45/55, let alone 50/50. He's already going to get demolished in PPV sales for their next fights. And if Floyd sells 100K+ more than Pac-Cotto (1.25 million) did, there's another reason for Floyd to say no to 50/50.

                      I honestly could carelss at this point.
