    Mayweather would've made MUCH more than Pacquiao. It's an insult to Pacquiao and the #'s this fight would've done.

    Really? NO PPV revenue for Manny? REALLY?
    Manny deserved something but not 50%. Manny said 50% or no fight AFTER he said he would take less than Mayweather. How ****** can he be by putting that out there?

      About as ****** as Floyd asking for all the PPV revenue, actually.

      So why not come back with a counter offer from Mayweather? That's what negotiations are for.

        When negotiating people will always ask for the most and see if they can get away with it. Manny threw his bargaining power out the window when he said he would take less than Mayweather. This made Floyd know he is indeed the bigger draw. Not a smart move by Manny.

Manny felt like he was in his right to not fight and sue (which he did) but if he was really totally in his feelings about it..... why continue talking about making the fight with Mayweather if he truly felt insulted? Tell me again why the fight didn't happen in 2009? Oh, is because Floyd called Manny a cheat? Awwww poor Manny. I guess Roach saying that Mosley and Marquez could possibly be cheating in the media is enough grounds for them to sue too, right? Unlike Pacquiao. Mosley and Marquez was down to get tested but Manny wasn't.

          only wants testing after the most devasting defeat in his career. So by him wanting testing with Rios.... is he calling Rios a cheat? Is it right for Manny to request a test to Rios who has never been caught cheating? Was it Manny saying he would take less money to fight Mayweather through the press and then get insulted when Mayweather actually followed up on Manny's statement? How dare he call Manny's bluff!
          Dude, I and many others have broken this down for you a thousand times. You will only see it from a flowmo's perspective. You're ridiculous, I'm out.

              How do you throw your bargaining power out of the window? Manny will always hold bargaining power until he retires. The proof is in the pudding, it's not about what is said come on now he generates big numbers still.

              Even then, you're making up excuses for Floyd that Floyd himself doesn't use.

              Mayweather has been chanting about it's about the drug testing STILL, even though Manny has SAID numerous times he'd agree to it. Do you hold Mayweather accountable for that?

                He doesn't hold Mayweather accountable for anything sadly.

                  Um manny is still saying he'll take less, so what are u talking about?? It's the ppv share that manny wants a piece of and even then he's willing to take less. But Floyd said no on ppv when they both agreed to it before. Then Floyd said PAC would have to fight Marquez and Bradley again then PAC needs to sign with tmt and give floyd a few fights under that then finally now Floyd says no PAC fight the ship has sailed. It's funny how u guys want to grab and hold onto one thing PAC said but when u look at floyd he comes with a new demand every week.

                    If you don't hold all 3 people accountable you should take a look at your wall and take the fanboy posters down.

                      SO what if floyd makes so much more than Manny. Manny is not entitled to anything. Floyd took the risk of leaving TR and creating his payment package. why does he have to make up for manny's unwillingness to do same?

                      I thought Lampley made an excellent point about Kovalev on Saturday. He took short money to fight Cleverley on the road knowing that a win would pay dividends later. Floyd and others have done the exact same thing. WHy can't manny do same?

                      I agree the $40 mil w/ no ppv was a bull**** offer. but grustler is absolutely right-manny has never made that much before as the main draw and never will.

                      Its clear that both fighters could've done a lot more to make this fight happen.
