Comments Thread For: Hatton Urges Mayweather, Pacquiao To Do 50-50 Fight

[hitking]

I think 50/50 is fair. I also think that Mayweather is pricing himself outta the fight. I aslo think that since Pac said he would take less money and would be earning a career high payday ($40M). he shouldn't have said he'd take less if he wasn't willing to do. I also think that Pac's last in-ring effort shows how much of a mismatch this joke of a soap opera really is. I also think that fans in both camps are way too emotionally invested in this. I also think that fans of both are ****** for caring how much either makes. I wish they would fight for free so I coule watch for free. I also think that the majority of the Pacquaio fans would rather the fight not happen because they are very aware that Pac is much more likely to win a PR war against Mayweather than actual boxing match. All in all, who cares. Its Lewis-Tyson all over again where the hardcore knowledgeable fans could care less and the casual fanatics think its a much better match-up than it really is.

**** it, just make it 100/100 so that everyone wins. I'm sure they can find a way to do that .

Yes he did accept it.....but when??? He had the opportunity to earn 50/50 and all he had to do was accept the OSDT, but he didnt, he walked away from the deal.... Nkw he wants to come back and say "ok" but in the business world it will always cost ya to come back to the table..... And still he'd be getting almost double what he's ever been paid

When? You are making it sound like Manny just said it today .... If you listen to Floyd's statement of a couple of days ago, Manny has yet to agree on testing too .... you still believe whatever Floyd tells you?

For it to take as long as it did then OST it was a big deal for BOTH SIDES!!!

Manny compromised ALL THE WAY .... Floyd didn't budge.

Now we have a similar situation but like I said above, if Floyd really wants OST then Floyd should be compromising and accepting 50/50 .... and by the way, 50/50 was part of the original deal.

How can you go for the guy who always pushed them goalposts back?

You can give Floyd the 200 and he will still come up with another excuse not to fight. The excuses never seem to end.

I'm sorry....i didnt grasp what you said 100 percent and i want to, can you explain a little further?

Initially, Floyd and Manny agreed to 50/50 but not on OST. Floyd said, "Manny, Take the Test and we got a fight"

Floyd wouldn't budge and give Manny 14 days cutoff. Manny wanted the fight, so he compromised and said "OK, I will take the TEST".

Now, Floyd changes his mind and tells Manny that he wants all PPV money. Naturally, Manny rejects as that is nowhere close to 50/50

Being that Manny compromised on something that was a BIG DEAL (OST), Floyd should do some compromising as well.

when did team pac agree to fight on may 5th ? they didn't.why would they ask for 50/50 after saying they would take less?they were taking a real pr hit over the may 5th date and top rank just found a way to spin it around with this 50/50 ****.

floyd was doing all the compromising in the 1st negotiations yet team pac still walked away to go fight clottey instead.so a couple years go by and pacquiao loses to marquez in the eyes of many and now doesn't look invincible so now he feels like compromising

Leonard and Hearns FOUGHT IN THEIR 20's in their primes!!!!!!!! Get it? Got it? Good!

was floyd-pacquiao even an option in their 20's?

[letsgobrady]

YOU agreed with the guy who said Hagler used a walking chair! Next time QUALIFY what you agree with specifically, otherwise you are endorsing the entire post and exactly what the other guy said! Get it? Got it? Good!

why?for u?so i have to highlight everything i agree or disagree with just for you?you make it seem as if that was the post, the post was just giving examples of times where fights didn't immediately happen in past years and i agreed with that .don't worry about me brother worry about yourself and i'm pretty sure most people that are not looking to make a petty argument would of understood what i meant but someoone who thinks he is smarter than he really is wouldn't

lol no no, he treats them like a bitch and like a battered wife they keep coming back for more

VisionQuest told Pac that he didn't even get paid for the Cotto fight....not only that..he was informed that his records were lovingly kept IN A BROWN PAPER BAG.....................................

The guy your avatar says Floyd would beat Manny....as a matter of fact...ALL the fighters that have been in the ring with BOTH guys say Floyd will beat the Pinoy Puppet..
