    Yoohoo! Anybody there?

    Bullies get slammed. LMAO!

    You are calling a African American man a monkey....as a African American myself, I take offense to this.

    This is just a sport, not life or death....no need to use such language.

      If I was Pac-Man, before 2013, it would be 50/50 split....now I will take scraps if the alphabet boys were after me.
      Well, Floyd's flat fee was in 2012. So that is what people are discussing when they are criticizing the $40 million flat fee from Floyd.

          "He has to leave bob arum." Say he leaves Bob, whats the next excuse?
          Here lies the problem. You blame it on one side and continue, for whatever reason, to excuse the other party. I'm not about to go back and forth on this. Both sides are ******ed and I blame every single person involved in those camps, but you won't. I'm just glad you answered the question that the thread was about.

            Duran would have accepted it from Pacquiao probably.

                every fighter in boxing would accept a 40 million dollar flat fee. because it would be the biggest purse of their career.

                  No fighter will fight for free, Ray, Duran, Ali.

                  Got get the biggest legend you know and they ain't fighting for free, I don't care how much of a class act or gentlemen they are.

                    Floyd has net worth, Pac is in tens of millions of debt....I'm not excusing either fighter for the sad excuse they put forth making this fight...but your knowledge of boxing has always shown to be lacking. Continue on.

                      As for the flat fee...no one would've accepted it then, at the moment though Pac is not even close to 50/50 or A side. Accepting 40 million if it was offered again would be a smart choice. He made about half that vs Rios...and will make about the same vs Bradley if not a tiny bit more, while Floyd can fight a joke fight in Khan and make more more than Pac if he fought anyone other than Floyd. Those points won't change.
