    for the Tito vs Winky fight, I said this before, if Tito was in his prime, and Winky wasn't able to wear those pillows on his hands to protect his small head, it might have been a different fight. Seriously, they need to have a limit on how puffy a glove can be, kind of like how they measure a goalie's pads (in the NHL) before each game because it makes it unfair.

      it is not so much about precentage as it is the amount given:
      If Floyd is offered more money than he has ever made in a fight I am not sure he can complain all that much...so if Oscar offers 15 million, it will look bad for Floyd to refuse.

        **** that. Oscar is 10x the draw Floyd is. Oscar should take no less than 60/40.

          I dont buy that "if tito was in his prime" argument for the Wright fight, Tito was outclassed, he didint look "done" or "tired" or "old" he was outclassed, period.

            To "The Greatest"


            Since you have it in you to call me a ****in moron for having an opinion on the Wright/Trinidad fight, why dont you back it up here, rather than give me bad karma and insult me?

            You tell me how any version of Trinidad would have fared any better in that fight?

              ....All gloves weigh the same, as long as they meet the weight conditions, then its fine. Fighters need that so that they dont break their hand every fight. If Floyd had to wear small gloves his entire career he would probably be forced to retire, along with Malignaggi, breaking your hand hurts, bad, and not every person is born with indestructable hands. In Winkys case he probably sacrafices a certain amount of power to have his gloves padded like that, but its to protect his hands, just as a figther who uses a little less padding (reyes) gloves gains the advantage in power, one cancels the other out in many respects. As long as they weight the same, its ok.

                You guys talking about the draw are dead wrong. It is about the percentage. Floyd's going to make more money then he ever has but so what. Does that mean you should just take anything? Guess what, Oscar is also going to make more money then he ever has.

                I think alot of you forget what Floyd brings to the table. There's no doubt that Oscar is the man but he will make way more money fighting Floyd then anyone else. Its like Floyd said about Gatti. Gatti is a draw in his hometown of AC but there is no way in hell that he sells out the Arena in just a matter of hours if he's not fighting Floyd.

                All the media has said that this will be Oscar's biggest money fight, it will probally be the biggest non HW fight in history, and it could actually be the biggest money fight in History including HWs.

                You think Oscar gets that fightint anyone else? Floyd is the P4P #1 guy in the sport and his status has grown. He stays on PPV now and does some very solid buys. Oscar is also being trained by Floyd's father.

                My point is that Floyd brings alot of stuff to the table that makes this fight sell also. Its definatly not a one way thing. Also who else can Oscar fight? Tito's not coming back and no one wants to see that anyway. Then you have Winky which Oscar would make way less money against & he has a far better chance of losing.

                Oscar cant and wont just walk away like you guys think so basically Oscar needs and wants this fight also. This fight secures his legacy. This win is probally even bigger then a win over Winky just for the simple fact that Floyd is more sexy. Its a much more sexier win even though you may think Winky is better and a much more harder fight. Oscar will be remembered much more for beating Floyd then Winky.

                I think 58/42 or 57/43 is reasonable

                  Tito Trinidad is the liar.
                  Don't talk about Oscar like that.

                  Anyway, Tito knows in his heart that he would come back if the price was right.
                  If they could give him 50Million for that ****, he'd come back.
