    I'd take this more seriously if I didn't think that he'll now attempt to stipulate the fight out of existence.

    He's been 'offered' $110 million of a supposed $200 million purse, an he's saying that Pacqiuao shouldn't get $40 million.

    So he wants what? $170 - 180 million or the fight doesn't happen. Thanks Floyd, we love you man. TBE. Doing it for the fans.

      There's no $170m going all to one person. Where do you guys come up with this crap?

          Floyd is so dam ******ed clearly shows he doesn't want to fight pac. If he believes pac doesn't desver 50 split he is on crack. Doesn't matter if pac ppv are down and doesn't matter if he has recent losses people will buy this ppv, no way does Floyd deserve 60/40 split and bob knows that's a rip off for them. This fight is not happening ****kkkkkkk Floyd and his groupies

            You guys!?!

            Well, I'm no mathematician but the 'offer' was $110 million out of the near $200 million purse supposedly set aside for the fighters.

            Floyd said Manny's stock has fallen so he wont get the $40 million that he says he was once willing to agree to. So we'd think he might be looking in the region of $20 to $30 million.

            If we go on by the UAE numbers that would leave $170 to $180 million left in the fighters purse fund. Its not a difficult equation. Hypothetical maybe, but then everything around this fight is until Mayweather decides to fight his number one contender.

              We're not going by the UAE #'s because they haven't shown anything that backs that. They've made these silly offers before. Let's get back to what we know and stop living in Candyland.

                Floyd is one clever guy. The ONLY reason he spoke up is because he'll most likely be watching the Khan fight tonight, and he wouldn't want that be the first time he's seen in public (and be boo'd for his silence regarding Pac). At least with Floyd saying something about Pac, even though he's BS'ng, he can be a little bit more comfortable attending the Khan fight tonight. And if Floyd does attend the fight tonight, we will know who his next opponent will be.

                  Seriously, and possibly end up like those guys that fight in Russia thinking they're getting 1 million USD and get like $300 and a plane ticket.

                    We know that they've gone public with an offer. Both of the fighters are aware of that. So now any other prospective offers will have to take that into consideration because it could theoretically be used as a bargaining ploy.

                    Now how seriously it would be taken if it was used as leverage is up for debate but it now has to be considered to one degree or another.

                    If you'd also clarify what you meant by "you people", it'd be appreciated.

                      We also know that they haven't been able to finalize that funding. Just like they always. So please spare me. What "you people" comment are you referencing? Quote me please.
