Good thread @Greenbeanz

Infact can a mod make this a sticky then members can just post all things relevant to Pac v Floyd in one thread or this main board will just be awash with threads on the subject...?

[Master]

Where is the stream. By any chance will ITV be showing it?

Wow, you put a lot of work in it so I thought I owe you at least a click on each one of 'em - well maybe not all, just the ones with you-know-who. Nice work, Greanbeanz.

Floyd senior has a poem for us all



"Skip Bayless? Skip to my lou
The Mayweathers are coming through

I thought you knew
Man, who the hell were you talking to

Maybe you should pay more attention
And make less mention

For one, I heard your comments about my son
Who's second to none, number one
And throws punches like a machine gun

You said he was scared to fight
Then all that changed over night
When it comes boxing, Floyd is the light

Skip Bayless and the other guys
They should all apologize
For telling America all those lies

The fight is signed, sealed, delivered and almost done
Lil Floyd once again will overcome
And still remain number one"

Snip...

The 60-40 split has a small wrinkle, Arum said. For revenue between $160 million and $180 million, the winner of the fight will get 51 percent ($10.2 million), Arum said, with the loser taking 49 percent ($9.8 million).

Revenue below and above that window will be divided, 60-40, in Mayweather’s favor, Arum said. Ellerbe would not confirm or deny the breakdown, citing confidentiality.

Those first 160-180 numbers don't make much sence. As they highlight a 10.2 and 9.8 million dollar split for winner Vs loser. Who the hell is getting the bulk of that money? Maybe they missed a "0"
