    i hope in the rematch they will have a video of Floyd doing the random blood test, all of them not just one video of urine test.

    and i also hope they will release the result every single time not wait until the fight is done and over with.

    by the way, have USADA release the result of the random drug test for the fight of the century yet?

      The rematch talk is to make Manny fans feel better. Arum's selling them the pipedream and Floyd is happy to play along. When you have them saying they deserve more than 40%, you have to be smart enough to realize this isn't happening.
      we'll see.

      floyd has a year to feel out the public. it's up to him.

      bobfather just doing his best to salvage pac rep and same time set up a possible lucrative rematch.

        You think the rematch would be lucrative?

          We will see obviously. I hope not.
          it's not $180 mill...

          but say another $90 mill to fight a dude you already whooped? and pass rocky 49-0? and 2 wins over the guy in your era considered an atg?

          i thought floyd was tired of boxing too.... but he sure still has it.

            The fact that they're telling you about it taking place next year is all you need to know. They're ****ing with Pac fans. Or trying to make them feel better. You have Arum saying they deserve more than 40% when in reality, they deserve less now. Given that at least half (and more) of the people who purchased the fight the first time won't buy next time, how's Floyd going to make $100m? Giving Manny 10%? That's not happening and thus, he has no motivation for it. Not even worth dreaming about.

              At best, a rematch does Floyd-Canelo/Oscar #'s.

                35% vs floyd will still be more than any other fight.

                they'll sell "CONTROVERSY" , "REVENGE".

                media will eat it up. fans will eat it up.

                2m ppv minimum.
                Well he needs to get to 49 before he can get to 50 so we'll see who #49 turns out to be.

                And your still talking about Pac coming off a year layoff fresh off of a surgically repaired shoulder with no tune-up. And he's not going back to his wreckless 2009 style.

                This will be a Jones/Hopkins II debacle in terns of entertainment.

                  Just how is he getting $90m? Break it down for me. Based off what PPV #'s and what's Top Rank getting?

                    yes.

                    tr just has to keep their pr machine going.

                    keep controversy going over pac injury.

                    floyd can start some other stuff later to keep media talking.

                    media will eat it up.

                      Respectfully Tua, no one is buying the Pac injury. The media's not eating it up, they're eating him alive, including his own network.
