Originally posted by millcitymauler View PostThe kind of pressure that Castillo applies is totally different than Manny's pressure. Castillo's is a physical pressure applied by getting his head in his opponents chest, and mixing body punches and uppercuts along with the pressure of the weight of his body. Manny is fast footed, in and out, throwing multiple punch combinations before he gets away from anything coming back. The difference between Floyd and Manny is that Floyd is just as fast, much more accurate and posseses a higher ring IQ, not to mention he's the bigger man. Floyd agreed to any, and all aspects of O.S.T. - he also proved it by taking part in random testing for Mosley. Doesn't Manny's myriad of excuses even get you just a little bit su****ious???

So he holds pretty good cards to refuse Floyd's request of 60/40 split

1990s Roy Jones Jr.

1960s Muhamad Ali
1950s Sugar Ray Robinson
Those are some BIG NAMES.
And You have former FOTD award winner Roy Jones Jr. talking about how Manny is one of the top ATGs of all time:
Roy went on and talked about Manny's character, " I love this guy to death, to come from where he came from and to rise to where he is at right now is truly amazing. He is my kind of guy, he is a brother in Christ."
Jones commented on where he thinks Manny ranks all time, " Manny is at least in the top 3 or 4 of the all time greats in boxing. Some of the things that he has done in boxing are amazing."
Whether you believe that or not that is some pretty big praise from one of the greatest boxers ever...

It's obvious who is ducking whom. We all know who has that reputation.
During the first negotiation, Pac agreed to a 50/50 fight despite getting the bigger PPV revenue in their last fights (Pac/Cotto and PBF/JMM). PBF threw a curve ball with his OST demand. Now, Pac made concessions with the OST demand just to make the fight happen, and Floyd throws another curve ball with his 60/40 demand.
Floyd's reputation is in clear display once again--and he calls himself the greatest of all time?

LOL! Wow...

What is up with the Gag order? I thought they were not going to deal thru the media?
The Pac camp is still running there mouths and this is in rumor of a 60/40 spit, there is nothing official. Don't know where ppl come up with this information.
I guess when you are a hardcore fan from either side you believe what fits in your beliefs
