        40 million is worse because back in 2010 Mayweather and Pac were making almost EQUAL PPV buys, with a million buys for each fighter. And Pac wanted 50-50 or atleast a 55-45, but got lowballed with a 40-million flat offer from Mayweather which is ******ed.

          In all fairness team Pac just turned down a 50/50 split because a he scared of needles.

          Floyd was really trying to stick it to him.


          No pun intended.

            interesting... #WADA style testing was the reason why Pac didn't shoot for it back then. The word from industry wasn'T about the money, but about testing...

              No, Pacquiao turned down a 50-50 fight from Mayweather because the blood testing was too close from the fight. He was drained when he fought Morales the first time because they took two ounces of blood from him 1 day before the match.

              "Well, he now agrees to a 14 day in? Well he got the chance to accept that, but right now I want it just a day before the match!"

              - Floyd Mayweather.

                Brian Kenny: ''What about 15 days before the fight? Would that still bother you?''
                Pacquiao: ''15 days before the fight inhibits training. It's not good to draw blood during that date...it inhibits training.''

                Cmon, Pacquiao using the word ''inhibit'' that ESPN shıt was all scripted in play with Pac's publicist's coaching him what to say. You don'T see the realtime footage as it would be an awkward interview. that was all cut and edited to make the interview seem fluid. Ironically, the conversation and questioning was already awkward and it seemed like Kenny was running out of options to play it off...obviously Kenny knows what's going on.

                only gullibles bought into the 15day and swerving off WADA...Arum and Koncz made sure the gullible's believed their part.
