    Should Floyd fight Winky for 50/50?

    Its wrong but it goes by fast and if you read just a couple of lines then I think you will stay with it

    As I said yesterday, I think there is a better chance of this fight happening then alot of you think and I along with Greg Leon thinks that Floyd was dead serious about it last time but there was no way he was going to jump from 140 straight to 154 to fight a Winky who had been there his whole life, just had a fight at 160, and is the 2nd best fighter in the world, for 50/50. Floyd wouldve been so ****** to do that. Now you heard Floyd's response and you can see that he is not playing and he would fight Winky.



    Winky said dumb things like he had nothing to gain but now Floyd is at 147 and was going to fight at 154 against Oscar anyway, so what is Winky's excuse now? If Winky wants 50/50 then the fight wont happened. If Winky fights for 60/40 then it will definatly happened and if he fights for 55/45 I think there is a 50-50 chance it happeneds.

    Again, Winky said he wouldnt take anything less then 50/50 last time because Floyd was too small and he was taking all the risk. Now, Floyd is still small but he was going to fight at 154 anyway and has had 2 fights at 147, so you cant say that you deserve 50/50 for the same reason. Winky is not Oscar and Floyd is not going to give him 50/50 when he's not the bigger name and he has all the advantages. If its 60/40 then I bet anyone that Floyd takes that fight and if its 55/45 then theres still a good chance.

    Winky is also trying to use Floyd, now. He talked his way out of the Taylor instant rematch, he said all this **** about wanting to move up and fight Calzaghe, but now like a little boy he wants little Floyd. Then he thinks Floyd will do it for 50/50? Floyd can fight Margarito for 8 mil. You know Winky will have to give in enough for Floyd to come out better then that deal.

    If this fight doesnt happened then Floyd will get criticize for it as always but Im telling you that Floyd will be very interested in this fight but he's not a fool. If anyone thinks Floyd shouldve fought him for 50/50 last time then your crazy and if you think he should fight him for 50/50 this time then your crazy.

    Not saying that Floyd can win, but like he said, "No one's going to beat me with just a jab". If you watch Floyd's fights and Winky's fights then its not even close in terms of overall talent. If they were the same size then Floyd would kill him. Dont count out this fight not happening and if it did, then dont count Floyd out in it. He is still the best all around fighter in the game and no one around his weight is just going to dominate him.

    Read this article on there contract last time and I dont trust Shaw. I dont believe they agreed to 50/50 because the whole time Floyd said no to that. http://www.sptimes.com/2005/07/26/S...yweather_.shtml

    I cant believe everyone thinks Floyd is running when he said 55/45. Its crazy to me. Winky wants to call out little Floyd instead of fighting Calzaghe like he said he was going to do. You have to give Floyd some kind of reason for taking that fight. Most fighters wouldnt do it for any kind of money but Floyd really wants it. Winky has every single advantage in this fight, doesnt have the bigger name, isnt the bigger draw, but yet he still wants 50/50 even with all the weight size? Then he lies about killing himself to make 154 when we all know thats not true. He's only been at 160 for 2 fights and he didnt even put on that much weight after the weigh in for the Taylor fight.

    Floyd came into the ring for a 147 pound fight weighing 146 and he started at 130. Winky is arguably the Middleweight Champ of the world and he wanted Floyd to jump from 140 to fight him for 50/50. Is he crazy? How much of a punk would Floyd look like now if he started dissing MAB and calling him out after he was just going to fight Oscar at 154? Then he wants MAB to fight him at 140 for 50/50? All of you would be clowning Floyd if he said that but thats the same thing Winky is doing. The differnce is that MAB wouldnt fight Floyd but Floyd will fight Winky, just not for 50/50.

    People hate Floyd so much that they think he is crazy for just wanting 55/45 for that. I thought Floyd was crazy to even do it for that much but he was going to do it. Now Floyd is bigger but he is still a very small guy and Winky still wants 50/50. I cant believe how people rip Floyd for that. Now did you hear how Floyd just clowned Winky? I told you guys he will fight him for the right price and its not some outlanish Roy Jones type of figures either. Tell me if Floyd should fight Winky for 50/50 and if not then tell me how much he should give Winky? Peep the article.

    yes he should but the split isnt the issue, floyd knows he doesnt stand a chance in there with winky so he is going to talk **** in order to hype his sac riding fans into buying his next dud of a pay per view against a lack luster opponent.

      I would love to see a Mayweather/Wright fight.But I don't think that it would be fair.Winky's size advantage would be too much for Floyd.In my eyes,it wouldn't be a fair fight.Floyd should fight Margarito,and Winky should accept a rematch with Taylor.

        50/50 or no deal, if i was winky thered be no question about that, floyd cant run no more he has been cornered by margarito and wright, if he takes neither of those fights i will lost respect for him. I dont see why the top 2 P4P fighters in the game shouldnt fight if there around the same weight, and 50/50 is exactly what it should be, floyd hasnt beaten no one the caliber of the opponets wright has faced, so for him to ask for 60/40 from a guy who just beat mosley twice, trinidad, and jermain taylor is just dumb as ****. im really startin to believe floyd is a fraud.

          Come off it. Shane had just lost to Forrest twice, really lost to Oscar, and looked like crap against Marquez. Those are the 4 fights before Winky and he didnt have one real win in any of them but yet people give Winky so much credit for the win. Tito had just come out of a "2" year retirment, was completely rusty & shot looking, and had just been murdered 2 fights previous. I swear people act like Winky just killed the prime Shane & Tito.

          Winky hasnt made any kind of money compared to Floyd, he isnt the bigger name, and has all the advantages. How can you say that there the same in size when Floyd started at 130 and Wink started at 154. Everyone knows Floyd belongs at 140 and Winky belongs at 160. Floyd came into the ring weighing just 146 for a 147 pound fight but yet he's supposed to fight the huge Winky at 154 for 50/50 when Winky is arguably the Middleweight Champ? Thats crazy. Thats like Floyd fighting MAB.

          In there last fights Winky just weighed 166 and Floyd 146 but you think there the same size? Besides, Winky's argument last time was that he desereved 50/50 because Floyd was so small and he had nothing to gain. Now Floyd is up where he's at and he still deserves 50/50. Floyd will make good money no matter who he fights. Who is Winky going to fight? Soliman again for peanuts? I thought Winky said that he was going to fight Calzaghe so much? He's the one who looks like the chump

              It should be 50/50 cause neither of them sell that many seats, this fight wouldn't be a slaughter of PBF like some are saying, but the size advantage would be a huge factor, and Winky would probably win.

                  Floyd sells more seats then Winky, he has the bigger name, and has made by far the more money. Then, look at what you just said. You said that Winky would win because of his weight? That along should tell you that it shouldnt be 50/50, and when you add on the stuff I said above then its even more clear.

                  This isnt the same Floyd. He has been selling more and more each fight. Floyd did a great number of buys against a Zab coming off a loss and Winky had to fight Taylor on regular HBO. If Winky and Floyd fight the same guy right now then Floyd would get way more money and when you add to that the weight then Winky must be smoking.

                  If Floyd fights Winky for 50/50 then he would never fight Winky because he can make that much fighting alot of guys, so why would he fight a guy who is much bigger then him and great. If he fights Winky for 50/50 then he probally wont even get the 8mil Margarito is offering, so why not just fight him at 147. Floyd isnt that dumb

                    I notice alot of you are picking 50/50 but you arent saying why. Let me help you out, "because Im a Floyd hater and I love to rip him every chance I get".
