Comments Thread For: Arum: Movement in Mayweather vs. Pacquiao Talks

[MisanthropicNY]

False. He's seeking 2/3 of the revenue which makes out to about 66%. I'm assuming Pac and his team are pushing for a 60/40 split and it's not that big of a difference. Pac already agreed to get the smaller share of PPV revenue.

Sports Illustrated first broke the story.

I say split the difference then... 63-37... or something like that... Arum and the Pac's pool boy might be the problem...

But Floyd saying he wants 2/3 of the revenue...kind of shows that Floyd wasn't being genuine when he offered then #1 lb for lb Pacquiao who hadn't been KOed by Marquez yet $40 mil with no PPV revenue...

That offer was a joke and further goes to prove that May was setting up road blocks to avoid the fight...

I think Pac should agree to that split actually... Pac avoided the blood-testing the first time and has been KOed and has stated money isn't a big issue to him, but it's out of his hands..Arum needs to sign off on that...

"Movement" in Pac-May negotiations is like bowel movement in a constipated guy.

If this fight gets made (contracts signed) I'll feel like a 8 year old boy the day before Christmas.

yeah that winner take all is ****** judges can get it wrong and give it to the wrong guy so the other guy is broke plus no way the state will allow such a fight, that goes agianst worker laws it would be unfair and unjust you can;t do such a fight unless they get a gurantee and the winner gets the rest that would be okay.

But still you cant trust judges.

The only way that would work to be fair is fight till someone gets KOd like they used to do in the 1800s they would fight until someone quits or gets knocked out for 30 or 40 rounds.

60 40 is the best split if Floyd goes further than that, he is a B1tch, this fight is big because both fighters are the key, Floyd needs Pac and Pac needs Floyd to make this a fight, its not one guy its both guys, their names are tied to each other.

Pretty much this ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Pac and Bob were starting to look bad, so here comes captain save a....in Ronnie. Stfu, Ronnie, you always show for the Top Rank's spins and swivels, don't u? None of these a- holes wants the fight. They will see how much they can squeeze out of gullible folks until they ride off into the sunset.

So 55/45 is ok with Floyd , means all the other 100 page threads about a flat 40 mill and 160 mill to 40 mill are all BS and as usual more propaganda .

Biggest problem is Manny is so used to being the A side he doesnt know how to be the B side , thats the reason he keeps saying NO , he was going to walk over 2% with Hatton shows how money is indeed the motivator , like Arum said its always about money .

The Charity BS and I will agree to everything BS , the TV adds and media campaign about how much he wants the fight is all about pushing his side of the deal up , and the general public swallows i8t like its last feed .

Just say YES Manny and get at least double the biggest payday in your entire career .

So he basically wants twice as much as Pacquiao. If revenue is 200 mil Floyd would get about 133.? and Pacquiao would get 66.?. I wouldn't blame Pacquiao for taking it if he would. That is a lot of money. I think it should be 60/40 though.

No one with a brain took that 40 million offer seriously. Only morons did.

Pac keeps saying no. Lmao. What has he said no to? After agreeing to steroid testing app 3-4 yrs ago ( which had never been requested bf- so it's understandable why he turned it down, even well renowned boxing trainers said he had no reason to agree initially?), what has he said no to. Lol
