    Ahh yes, I do agree with you. The part about the sheeple that is.

      This is where I'm getting lost aswell.

      Pacquaio and team says they have agreed to terms.

      But Floyd's saying they haven't agreed to terms.

      But both say they're negotiating.

      So I'm confused. And tired.

        If they're negotiating then obviously nothing has been agreed to. I'd love for a reporter to ask Arum/Pacquiao if they've received a contract that they've agreed to? And if so...have they signed it?

          If Floyd ends up fighting someone other than Pac on May 5, I will support Canelo vs Kirkland. Even if Floyd fights Cotto, I will still not support the fight. All I wanted as a fan was Canelo vs Cotto and Floyd vs Pac. And if both fights get canned, it seems like a spit in the face. Sad for a hard core fan like myself.

              Still waiting for you to tell us what exactly is happening in these negotiations. Please enlighten us with what your credible source has revealed.

              Either that, or please pull your head from Arums a$$.

                I can't stand Blob Arum but I personally believe Floyd is low balling the hell out of him and Pac. He's using his KO loss and PPV numbers to try to negotiate a deal. This was obvious when he kept mentioning that Pac wouldn't get the same deal he was given years ago of a flat 40 mill. That's incredibly selfish of Floyd. He knows Manny is still the biggest fight in the last 30 years and both parties would greatly benefit financially. Anyway, doing it this way he can still say that he tried to negotiate and lay the blame on Arum.

                  i'll spell it out, they haven't agreed to floyd's most recent bullsht offer of 20-30 mil for pacquiao, no ppv, pillow gloves, usada testing, no buboy, no arum

                  they agreed to majority of the afromentioned terms, but obviously pacquiao will never agree to no ppv, agree to everything = agreed to gloves, pillows, usada, 60/40

                  60/40 isn't one of floyds ideas, obviously, this is the guy that didn't want pacquiao getting any ppv last time they negotiated, and recently reiterated this point

                  but anything else is not happening, the reality is pacquiao has stretched as far as he'll stretch, floyd needs to stop acting like a p*ssy and just agree, but he's trying to make sure he gets as much money and as many advantages as possible for a fight he really doesn't feel he'll win

                  this is after all the guy that once asked pacquiao "what if i lose? you have sponsors etc i only have boxing"

                    I wonder if that's the case too. But if so, I want them to come out and say so. Because if they're saying 60-40 has been agreed to (I find that very hard to believe) then that's not the issue. I don't know what's fair. I think they should open the books and let the #'s decide. But even though Pacquiao's sales are declining, at the very least, he should be treated with respect. 60-40, 65-35. Anything lower is ridiculous.

                      **** him. Let him go and have a pointless rematch against Cotto fro less than half the money and then try telling us manny ducked with a straight face!
