I know you like manny, but you should be adult enough to post the whole truth without omitting facts.
Its as if you are afraid someone new will come to NSB and actually hold manny accountable.
If you and your friends won the lotto jackpot and your friends give you just 42% more than you make annually, would you be saying what you said above or would you be saying "You guys are joking right?"
The pot was bigger for a Mayweather vs Manny fight so they would both have received a great payday and should be proportionally better. Floyd knew that that offer would be refused by Manny. For sure he knew that Arum certainly would have refused. Furthermore, giving that amount to Manny didn't mean that is what he would get. Manny would need to give his team their share as well. So who knows if Manny would even have received as much as what he usually made back then for a fight.
What some of you Floyd fans still don't get is that it was NOT a serious offer. Floyd just wanted a way out and got it. AGAIN and AGAIN!!!

Originally posted by shade darkar View Posti dont need to justify anything. so your reason for floyd not trying to make a fight with pac now is because arum said they are fighting april 12? thats the best you have got?
newsflash, floyd picks who he fights, all he had to do was negotiate with them, make the fight for may and therefore pac would fight in may instead.
did floyd even try no make a fight with pac this may? the answer is no. they have been talking amir khan since last year!!!!!
and unlike you, im not a fan of 1 fighter, im a fan of boxing.
No, they did not try to make the fight in May. Niether did Team Manny, unless you consider what manny said in the press trying to make the fight. Why would AL/GBP try to negotitate a fight in May. Yet you are only mad at one guy.
SHade I've watched boxing long before floyd and will watch long after. Ive surely seen more fights than you.vYou may be a fan of boxing but you criticize things for every fighter except Manny.
That is not how a boxing fan behaves.

Originally posted by Evol View Postbecause its floyd, even if floyd offer pac $1, dunn would be on here saying manny ducked floyd for not taking that offer.. funny shiiet is dunn even admits that the 40mil offer was bogus but he cant seem to stop bringing it up because he has nothing left to talk about to make his point so he bounce back on the 40mil offer to make it seem like manny was the one who didnt want this fight.

Originally posted by BoxingScribe View PostLets just put this out there. Since the $40 million offer, Manny has lost to Bradley, been KO'd by Marquez, and stunk up the joint with Rios to the tune of 475k PPV buys. Are you sitting here saying the biggest boxing star in the world (which we saw what his drawing power is when he left the states) is entitled to a 50-50 split? If not, what is he entitled to? Because if you are saying his drawing power isnt on the decline you are naive. So what is Manny worth NOW with regards to negotiations?
