    wtf did u just typed up? floyd only called manny once and that was before the pac vs marquez 3. floyd called pac and offer him $40mil flat no ppv. at that time pac was still a draw so of course he declined the offer. Now at this very moment pac doesnt deserve a 50/50 split anymore and pac is not asking for one. At this point pac is sayig he's willing to take less beacuse he knows he doesnt deserve anything higher becaue of the losses. pac is still saying now that he wants to fight floyd, what has floyd say about manny so far????
    I don't expect you to know much about this because you seem to be a die hard Pacquiao fan. But in 2011, Richard Schaefer reached out thru Judge Weinstein (the same judge who was mediating Manny's defamation lawsuit against Manny) to Arum to make the fight. Judge Weinstein CONFIRMED that Arum and Koncz informed him they were not interested in negotiating a fight with Mayweather and Manny. But see, as a Pacquiao fan, those little FACTS dont matter. You just want to say its Floyd fault when there is overwhelming evidence that Arum has come up with a ton of excuses (we need to build and outdoor stadium) for the fight not happening and Manny only talks about fighting Floyd when he has a fight signed. Where was this talk before he signed the fight with Bradley? Just.....think about it

      Actually, about a month before Floyd called Pacquiao directly, Floyd's team contacted Arum through a third party attempting to make a fight, but he said they weren't interested because they were pursuing a fight with Marquez, which is exactly what happened.
      No matter how many times you tell them, they have a problem with these things called FACTS.

        That offer was no offer.

        The lottery example was just to make you understand how what you said was incorrect. If the jackpot grows then the amount a fighter makes should grow proportionally. Manny was making more proportionally compared to his opponents. Did Floyd use that calculation?

        Manny countered with $45 mill and was even willing to do $50 ....why did Floyd refuse? Because 5 or 10 mill more is peanuts compared to what they could have made.

        Offer was not serious by both sides but Manny was willing to give in a bit. Not Floyd! Floyd wanted it all to himself .... actually tried to derail it altogether!
        Criticize floyd for being a greedy, sellfish narcissist all you want. That criticism while true, doesn't absolve manny.

        Be honest about the offer and evaluate manny's actions the same way you do his potential opponents.

            Actual facts aren't a option on this board.

                  When you offer someone a flat rate of 40 million, and no PPV %, how is that a good offer?

                  That offer was bull from the start. Don't twist things in Floyd's favor. You're not a real Manny fan. And don't come back at me, and call me a *******. It's not a good offer.
                  And lets fight for charity is? 40 Million would've been the highest guarantee in history at the time. The highest grossing fight just did 150 Million. Pac isn't the A-side, was going to be paid by Floyd, so Floyd would need at least double what Pac gets to match revenue with him, and Pac wasn't putting in a dime to promote it. Pac would be an employee in this situation and 40 Million is damn good for someone who is coming to fight and nothing else.

                      According to Manny he said 50/50 and hung up.
