Pac rejects Mayweathers offer of 60/40 in Floyd's favour...

[skel1983]

I'm a PBF supporter. I think PacMan's ever-shigfting reasons to avoid Olympic style testing is suspicious and ultimately the reason the fight didn't occur earlier. PBF taking on SugarShane showed he had no fear, as Mosely is beter than anyone Pac ever fought at welter and perhaps at any divison.

But if PBF refuses to fight at 50-50, then he's the one ducking IMHO.

Fuck off hahah 39 year old Mosley at 147 is better then anyone Pac has ever fought you for real?? Didn't Cotto beat Mosley at 147 three years earlier?? Marquez both fights were much harder fights than Mosley for Mayweather.

When PBF fought Mosley, Mosley was ranked higher P4P than Cotto was when he fought Pac. So yes, even though Cotto beat Mosely earlier, at the time of their respective fights, Mosely was better; most likely becasue Cotto was the victim of Margarito's plastering.

Indeed, its quite an irony that PBFs competition at welter significantly outweighs PacMans. Clotty was coming off a loss and even b/f that was not on a HoF trajectory, unlike Mosely. Cotto was never the same after being plastered, while Hatton and ODLH were already thoroughly dissected by PBF himself b/f Pac took them down, albeit in even more brutal fashion to be fair.

In contrast, future HoFer ODLH wasn't far past his prime--having only lost to a bigger BHop, arguably should've gotten the decison over a juiced future HoFer Mosely (not to mention Trinidad), and thouroghly KO'd Mayorga--b/f PBF dismantled him. Hatton was an undefeated P4Per when PBF destroyed him while JMM, still a P4Per, fought Pac to a draw b/f being thououghly outclassed by PBF. And then there's Mosely.

PBF has faced superior competiton in ecent ears.

Yes that's why Mayweather won boxer of the decade....Oh wait a minute he didn't the other fella did what's his name again??

It is silly, 50-50 or they should be both grounded:

What will make it a multi millions dollars fight is the fact that both are fighting each others, that's the mix that will generate tons of money, the slight more popularity one could have over the other at that point is not important. I trust Bob to make it happen though but this ego fight is just stupid, even if we all know it,s just to foam the promotion and make sure the fight keeps being in the collective imaginary in the meantime.

Finally, somebody who makes sense.

I dont see how you can blame the fight not happening on Pacquaio. Pac just wants a fair deal. Floyd is the one making two rediculous demands:

1 - Drug Testing - If Floyd really cares about the fight game he should be working with the athletic commissions to get their laws changed and not just demanding some testing that isnt standard in the pros.

2 - Money - The fight should be 50/50. Floyd is not the bigger draw and manny should not settle for less than 50/50. That is fair.

Once again Floyd is making himself look like a fool and ruining his own legacy. If he hadnt pissed away all of his money he wouldnt be so dam concerned about the extra 10%. Floyd will die broke, I can see it now.

Thats just simply not true. Floyd is the bigger draw, the proof is in the numbers.

[ElTerribleMorales]

fuck the both of them, with each and every corny report of drama like this i grow less and less interested in this fight

[fan johnny]

This is a bull shit thread!

The is no negotiation new at all from either side.

The writer, Pacquiao Rejects Bigger Revenue Split For Mayweather - Boxing News, has no source and doesn't even quote a source. It's just another hungry writer looking for attention.

[Spicoli]

Good for him.Thats a slap in the face for any fighter on these guys level.These two need a dose of humility and come off the thrones though....makes fans tired and either piss or get off the pot.So many quality fights and fighters go by the wayside while waiting on this theatrical bs.

Sort out the egos and one upping between the ropes.

[Puerto Rican Punch]

The fight should be 50 / 50 or as I read in a previous threat 40 / 40, and the winner takes the rest. This sh... is really getting bored, get an agreement or fight other boxer or retire. After all this I hope that if they fight it is not a boring fight as I am starting to suspect it could be. I just hope the agreement is not reached at age of 40 when someone may be broke and figting to pay delayed bills.

[Boxer4life]

i dunno why every single big fight is simply not made a 60/40, 60 going to the winner.....that solves all problems in my opinion

jolz,

hey einstein, just because flash elorde is in the hall of fame doesn't mean he can't be overrated, idiot! yes, he did have a good career but before pacquiao, the overwhelming majority of filipinos were saying he was the best filipino fighter of all-time. hogwash! that distinction went to pancho villa.

look at flash elorde's record and sure he had 10 title defenses but against whom? he fought two or three good fighters and lost them all. throughout his career, his opponents were average at best. and look at how many losses he had! yes, i will agree that elorde does deserve to be a hall of famer but an all-time great? never!

[THE THIRD MAN]

50-50 or this fight does not happen. Pac has been active, he never took a break, he fought DLH, Hatton and Cotto all in succession and won by KO in each of them. I want this fight to happen, he deserves to be on a par with PBF.

You do have a point in that THOUGH,eventhough i'm a filipino.
BUT IT DOESNT TAKE AWAY THE FACT WHICH IS OBVIOUSLY EMANATING THROUGH YOUR POST THAT A FILIPINA GIRL REJECTED YOUR UNSHAVED, FLEA INFESTED, SWEATY WART RIDDEN, DIRTY LIL'

ah so the man who defended his title for 7 years is overrated eh?I like your logic, it is very, very stupid...

Please return the elementary, high school or college or even the post-graduate diploma you have received (if any lol). you should have just kept your a$$ shut..you are the major description of stupidity here@saddo..

And where in my argument that I stated that Elorde should be an ATG? Obviously you cannot defend your argument that is why you are now trying to twist the story boy..

and of course, there will be a best, but that best will be beaten when another best comes to another era and exceed the feat that the former achieved...

Come on, don't hug too much Mexican nuts..You are worse than Pacquiao nutkissers...

Doesnt matter if Floyd is the bigger draw, he still needs pac to make the biggest purse in his carreer.....who else is he gonna fight to make that kind of money? 50/50 cuz wether PBF likes it or not, if he dont fight pac at 50/50 he gets ZERO.
