4 years ago i believed pac deserved a 50/50 split but two loses later and by the numbers the rios fight did I feel like we can all agree he is less popular and his numbers are not even close to Floyds.

If Pacquiao gets 35 million that would mean Floyd would get well over 100 million and that is not a fair split at all. Pacquiao is half the reason this is such a big fight. They can't have a Mayweather-Pacquiao fight without Pacquiao. Give Pacquiao about 60 million and Mayweather still makes about 90 million. That is a 60-40 split and fair to both fighters. If I am wrong about this fight making that much money a 60-40 split is still fair. Maybe Pacquiao only gets 50 million and Floyd only gets 75 million that's still fair and Floyd's biggest payday by far. Pacquiao will never accept a lowball offer of 35 million so just forget about it.

I have no idea what is an objectionably fair split of the money, but unless he gets some impressive wins this isn't 2009-2010 where both Pac and Mayweather would have been the event. Nowadays to most this event has simply become another "Can anyone actually beat Mayweather" event. Sure Pac probably has the very best chance of doing that, but him getting KO'ed has taken away most of the allure that he is anything but just another challenger.
