      Ok.

      Do you have a point?

      Fact is we know nothing of what's going on behind closed doors.

        where was this hunger when floyd offered him that 40m? this situation reminds me of ray leonard and aron pryor.

        ray offered him the biggest pay day of his life but pryor wanted more yet fanboys here think ray ducked him. if pryor was that eager to fight then he would have just taken the money.

        **** manny and floyd, both need to stfu and just fight

            The last deal on the table we heard about was $40 mil 65/35. That was refused. There are strong rumors that Vargas has a deal in place as did Margs in 2010. If you keep refusing offers calling out on social media is really meaningless IMO. I doubt you agree as you are someone who uses social media in the most self deprecating and self destructive ways possible.

            What type of response would you like to see? If you got that response, would it make you change your opinion?

            ok.

            Even if Manny signs, Floyd will do the Columbo routine and say:

            "Just one more thing (roadblock) Manny" - Floyd
            These are never roadblocks or impediments to any other Manny fight. They shouldn't be for this fight.

            Negotiations are a two way procedure and if one side is not happy they simply walk away. It's no different to accepting a new job, If you know your worth you will not accept the first salary offer.

            This is potentially the biggest fight in history, so why would one fighters demands take precedence over the other. Further to this, we only have other peoples word that any of this is in fact holding up the fight.

            If the recent (ridiculous) amounts being offered are true, then I agree that Manny's team should draw up a contract and offer it to Floyd for evaluation and discuss *********s accordingly.

            Not really a big fan of either, but i do feel that Floyds "0" is a bigger factor than the amount of "0"s he would see on his cheque at this point in his career. Manny has already lost in spectacular fashion and is the underdog in that respect, but has acheived more in terms of legacy with his divisional conquests.

            I hope it happens, but I'm not holding my breath.
            You are entitled to your opinion. The last few weeks I've been reading about "negotiations" rather than "demands". the "demands" being made are no different than Things Manny/Bob have requested of their opponents.

            The primary reason the fight hasn't happened is no deal has been good enough for Manny and his team to agree to. Yet when asked about the fight-Manny and his team say the "demands" are not an issue-OST, purse split-last week one member even stated its n ot about the money.

            Ok, if everything Floyd is asking for isn't an issue-why has each offer been rejected?

            Pac is calling him out on social media-so Floyd responded there. what's the issue? Yes, he kept quiet during the lead up to the algieiri fight.

            As pointed out above, another deal was rejected. Arum also refused the step aside money, which IMO was too low. So obviously they are at the table, even though Floyd is not making any noise.

                This is a daft argument as Floyd stands to make his biggest payday by far also. This fight is exceptional so what floyd or manny would normally get isnt so relevant. Floyd isnt really in a position to 'offer' anything. The offer will come from both their paymasters i.e the network showing it, the take at the gate etc. Both parties know how much money is available here so the best and fairest thing to do is split it. No fair minded fan could possibly see it any other way.

                Both fighters earning power is going to be reduced if they dont fight each other and because of the overwhelming public perception that floyd is indeed afraid to fight Manny, its likely to hit floyd's harder. The British public arent ****** either. Khan isnt as big a draw here as I'm hearing american posters who dont even live here try and tell us he is. Nobody here gives Khan a shot at beating Floyd and he isnt even that well liked so they arent likely to turn out in Hattonesque numbers to see it.

                  'The last offer we heard about'....yeah, in a tweet from someone linked to floyd.

                    Ok so you have no point then?

                    What relevance are you trying to offer?

                    It doesn't matter who says what in a tweet and who posts what video.

                    We don't know what going on behind closed doors.

                    And according to Arum, and team Pac, and others, they're negotiating at the moment.

                      You claim the offer from Floyd was fake but you then say the counter to that offer was real. Can you see the problem with that?

                      the offer Manny got would be the biggest of his career. the counter offer was less than Floyd got for the Cotto fight, which is a smaller fight. Can you see the difference?
