if he had access to the contract he wouldnt have to "think" he would know

im sure no less that 50 mil was guaranteed each way..bc that was the tag for both in 2009
so noway in hell do they both get 50 million and they tell us 1 buy over oscarfloyd would have been great for boxing

Who said he had to think? I just hedged. He flat out stated.

floyd is an ego.as a fan of his i've learned not to listen to much he says..just appreciate his skill and understand that he is F'ing with the masses each time he talks...matter of fact i've become so good at it that i read his mind and understand him from just headlines...this thing with broner now..its all promotion..floyd doesnt want fighters to get rich off him..some will tell him cotto making 32 milion and he'll say "why i beat him.." u see wat i mean..i love him, but he's slick slow when his ego gets in the way bru..

manny made well over 50 million..and that alone means oscarfloyd had to be surpased in a big way

Wasn't talking about what he made. Talking about what he was guaranteed. More important, I never stated that he didn't make over $50m. I think you need to fall back and re-read.

he was guaranteed 50 million in 2009...u think that decreased? no!
if floyd could prove manny didnt make 50 million his ego would have made him do it already..especially after manny's punk excuses..he would have slapped that mma dummy around and then posted manny's contract and purse the day after that.. can we not agree to that?

He likely wouldn't have done that. Remember Floyd said the following more than 4 years ago.

He's a congressman, right? But he has the worst contract in boxing history. How smart is he?

Missed that 2009 contract. Let me see it.

As another poster said when he wouldn't be surprised if when they do a 30 for 30 on this, Al and Bob weren't working together on this.

IMO There is no way this fight does 4.6 mil in 2009.

and there is also no way Floyd win the fight in 2009

see how your logic works.

SHAME ON YOU

[Rath]

That's if you believe that was really Manny's cut. Mayweather didn't think so.

why you so concerned about how much Pac made in that fight.

does it decreases your manhood for every penny Pac made that night?

[Rath]

It's a shame that all those people got to witness Pacquiao being rendered completely ineffective. This was the one guy who was supposed to take it to Floyd and give him trouble with all his hand speed, punching power, and quick feet.

Instead we saw him defused and tamed just like all of Floyd's other opponents. Marcos Maidana put up more of a fight.

Kenny Bayless was not the referee

who cares fight was a bust action wise nobody cares everyone is waiting for cotto v.s canelo

I hope you're right but deep down I know Canelo Vs Cotto wont get across the globe like a Manny Vs Floyd fight did, pretty sad really considering I think you will actually be guaranteed a good bit of action in this one.

The thing that pissed me off most of all was the absolute lackluster undercard to this joke of a PPV event.
