I've heard the most ridiculous things come from some of those sources..you only have to look at any article where a writer looks at things without bias to see a billion brainwashed Pactards flood the comments area with nonsense.

Obviously, I expect the bias but a lot of their stories are baseless. I don't remember the pot-split ever being an issue in the first place?

Yeah, I'm sure Floyd has mentioned outside of negotiations that he should be getting the lions share because of blah blah blah but this sounds like an excuse for the Pacfans when Uncle Bob throws a wrench into the negotiations to say "See! Chicken Gayweather Quack Quack Duckweather is still running away..Pacman even offered to take less money!! waa waa waa.."

I still don't see this fight happening as long as Arum is alive but we can hope..

True, dat, Phillipino sources are for the most part totally unreliable, I was just hoping, that for once this might be true.
Like I said, if this fight can't be put together now, something very fishy is going on somewhere.
Don't get me wrong, I've read a few places that quote Manny as having said "I don't mind getting less" so that part is probably true but it's just the way these article titles are spun - "Pacquaio Lowers Share - Fight Likely" as though they are deep into negotiations and Pac has agreed officially to lower his share of the money. It was, as I understand it, just an off the cuff statement that Pacquiao made in an interview.

Also agree with Shza, I've said it before and will say it again, anyone who says they won't watch this fight or don't care about it anymore are straight lying. Two years ago would have been better but still the biggest fight in boxing.
Who knows, it might even be bigger, 2 years ago, I honestly had little interest in seeing it, but I do now. Partly because Floyd has grown on me a bit, i've gone from being a serious hater, to appreciating him and what he's accomplished.

Like I said, should Pac-Floyd ever happen, Pac-JMM wouldn't
do anything to tarnish it.
Lol you sure about that? Look at the posts above mine..people are already getting the "Pacquiao was washed up" excuses ready for if (when ) Floyd KO's Manny. I agree with you that the JMM fight shouldnt take away from it because when has Manny NOT struggles with JMM? He struggled more than 2-3 years ago when people say the Floyd fight should have happenee so I don't see the problem.
