i guess u miss the part where manny said he's fine with or without floyd.. LOL.. what i dont get is since manny is such an easy work no skill oppoent why would floyd turn down making the most money?? so floyd walks away with zero and thats fine with him??? i mean im only saying this because floyd's image is surrounded by making $$$$..

Ok so he''s fine. Go away then. Your point is ridiculous so its no pint in discussing. How floyd views the fight, easy or hard, has no bearing on purse split.

team pac offer floyd winner takes the bigger slice, since floyd's gonna win anyways because manny is one dimensional easy work, this is not a fair offer to u??

NO because floyd is promoting the fight and is putting his money up to guarantee a return on the investment. Manny isn't putting up his own money to promote.

my point is rediculous by reminding u what u guys been saying about how easy this fight will be for floyd? LOL.. so why would floyd turn down making easy money? and not just any money but we're talking about millions here MILLIONS!! and again easy work. LOL..

guys, the point isn't that it should or shouldn't be 50/50 (I think it should be 55/45 for Floyd). The point is that pacquiao shot himself in the foot when he said he'd take less. You can argue it should be 50/50 all you want but it's pacquiao's mistake by saying he'd take less and then asking for 50/50. Why would Floyd agree to that?

another thing is, for the de la hoya fight, I believe Floyd made 25 mil while Oscar got 58...and Floyd won that fight too. He paid his dues in situations like that so now that he's on top, he wants more money. Let's be honest, despite what this article says, Floyd (not Manny)is the one regarded as p4p king, especially by his peers. I put a lot more stock in what other boxers say about this fight than fans etc. Cuz those guys actually know. And in this case, every boxer I've seen asked who's better has said Floyd without hesitation.

but floyd is going to win remember?? so floyd gets the bigger slice.. this is not fair??? but offering manny a flat $40mil when the fight will make 100+mils is fair???

[The Big Dunn]

yeah and il ask you again, was floyd selling the kind of ppv numbers manny is now before he fought de la hoya?

it used to be "if it makes dollars, it makes sense."

No he wasn't. But he did take ODH from 1.4 to 2.44 mil ppv sales. That should count for something right?

Same for manny. He doesn't deserve the paltry $40 mil no ppv. But he doesn't deserve 50/50 IMO either. Take less, make fight. Manny has this option, just like floyd has the option to move of 50/50.

Manny turned it down, not floyd. and I am not one of those people. Its simple. Manny wants to be part of the biggest fight in history, take less to do so.

[Oh you out son]

umm hatton said floyd was a harder fight and that floyd will beat pac.. so why would hatton agree that this fight should be 50/50 to vengeance what pac did to him???

lmao he was likely coked up if he said that. maybe he just doesn't remember the pac fight well because he was cold ****ed unconscious staring up at bright lights

what, take 40? floyd said he isnt budging from 40 mil. does he really want the fight?

winner gets the bigger slice. how can u argue with that?? manny is gonna lose so after all manny did agree to take less LOL.. so why wont floyd and his fans agree to this?? u havent give me any good reason u just keep repeating urself LOL.. manny wont take a flat $40mil so u can stop repeating that. what i dont get is why turn down the winner get the bigger split??
