I'm not a fan of boxing anymore because the best don't fight the best and fans celebrate mediocrity. Mayweather's fans are actually happy when he prices himself out of fights! I read some guy on here saying he would 'lose respect for Floyd' if he gave Pacquiao 50/50. Aren't we all bored of hearing about PPV numbers and purse splits? It's supposed to be sport, not politics.

I really think that what really is going on in floyds head is that he dossent want to do enything he feels forced to do.
The whole world is screaming at floyd to fight Pac and I think he is so full of Vanity and Narcissism that he feels like the kaiser getting orders form farmers.
He thinks he is the best boxer that ever lived and is above boxing
Pac is simple minded and likes that other people dos the thinking for him and those people only think in terms of money.

But, Pacman being #1 PFP should be given the reasonable 50-50;
or the proposed 45-45 with the 10 remaining going to the WINNER!
that's FAIR enough!

Actually an equal split of 40-40 with the winner taking the remaining 20% but the only problem here is that can cause a lot of problem with scoring of the fight, Unless a KO happens or the fight ends in a draw then whoever loses would probably end of accusing the Judges of been paid off.

Another thing that makes me laugh is, whenever arum propose something unto the Mayweather side he has to put the "if Mayweather doesnt agree to this then he doesnt believe he can win the fight" etc
this stuff just makes me laugh because its like a child talking out of a grown old man's body, he also claimed his proposal was Pacqauio's proposal lol OK arum.. The same Pacquiao who handed his phone back to Knocz while him and Mayweather were discussing PPV money? Yeah

Originally posted by Camp Beast View Post50/50 plain and simple. I can't believe I'm saying this but Arum's 45/45 & winner 10 is a good idea. Although we all know Floyd won't take that. Once the numbers come in for Pac/Bradley I think then there will be leverage on Mayweather's side. I don't see Pac/Bradley reaching 1.5 like Mayweather/Cotto just did. Cotto definitely had a lot to do with those numbers though. Bradley won't pitch in much to the Pacquiao fight so I see that one coming up short. If you really want to break it down, compare Pac/Cotto to Mayweather/Cotto. That's a good scale to base the negotiations off of. In the end it's gonna fall on Mayweather being reasonable in the negotiations or Pacquiao giving in to Mayweathers unreasonable demands. I see neither happening. Mayweather vs Pacquiao is gonna be the greatest fight that never was. Hope I'm wrong.

Here's solution. Next time Schafer picks up the phone and tells Bob they want to negotiate the fight, Bob shouldn't say "no thannks, we aren't interested right now." That's just a starting point.
