      So even if Manny had agreed to 50/50 and OSDT (which he didn't)...it is still Floyd's fault and he would duck because you say so? Ok that seems reasonable.

        He didn't at all. And yes, I remember Arum's clock. Floyd was obviously ducking based on that, I mean the majority of the boxing world ate that nonsense up.

          Why would there even be a 50/50 split then? Yet a year later, Floyd wants 100/0. Did he not have an accountant at the time?

            it was jack knob.
            Manny's terms were:
            The glove size, Ring size, 50/50, 0 million for every LB over 147 at the weigh in.-----Floyd agreed

            Floyd's term(s) were/was: Both fighters are to take random blood and urine test, which can be taken up until the fight (to prevent/deter cheating).
            ----Manny refused


            How hard is that?
            Why don't you get it and see the writing on the wall?

              How did Floyd walk away? Pac refused to negotiate on the last deal and refused 50/50 when it was on the table due to more strict drug testing......Manny immediately signed to fight Clottey-who was paid over $1,000,000 bonus AFTER a poor performance.

              WHO WALKED AWAY and HOW?????

                Just like you slurp up whatever Floyd serves you. It's easy to see this **** for what it is when you aren't emotionally invested in one of the fighters.

                  I'm guessing he's young. Or posting from Baguio.

                    So Floyd is just supposed to leave whatever the initial offer was on the table indefinitely until Team Pac decided to accept? That seems pretty unreasonable. You don't turn down a transfer offer for a player and then call the team back two years later and expect the exact same terms regardless of circumstance.

                      what'll fix the issue? 55-45 or even 60-40 to the winner.. END OF NEGOTIATIONS
                      i agree with your fix bro 60-40 or a 55-45 to the winner is acceptable split...
