    First thing that caught my ear was that the fight fell apart over money(Shocker). It always comes down to money. Pac wanted 50/50 and that wasn't acceptable to Floyd. Drug testing didn't seem to be problem this time. Also, he called Pacquiao a ***** and a ***get numerous times. Another thing that caught my ear is that according to Floyd Sr. everybody is on steroids, except his son. Finally, Floyd Sr. actually suggested that Floyd Jr. could fight Clottey next. In fairness, it was one of like 3 names that Floyd Sr. mentioned, but a Clottey fight would be horrible. One thing about the money situation. Pacquiao isn't Shane Mosely. He doesn't need Floyd Jr. to make big money. He'll fight Margarito in the Middle East and make $25 million with no taxes. Like it or not Floyd Sr, Pacquiao is just as big a star as your son. They need each other to make the biggest fight in boxing history. They both deserve an equal share of the money.
    1. This would be consistent with the thread i posted yesteray. Pac wanted 50%.

    2. No. Pac is not as big a star. otherwise, he would have sold similar numbers. And got similar paydays. Floyd substantially outsells Pac consistently. And that is the Team may point: Why should I "give" away millions of dollars.

    Arum doesn't want to make a fight with Bradley or Williams, calling it a free ride. So why should Floyd give Pac a ten million "pass".

      Who wouldn't think negotiations were going on?

      A lot of people here need to stop believing everything they read and think a little harder.

          What I dont understand is how Floyd has done more in PPV buys and grossed more money in less bouts yet Pacquiao still insists on a 50-50 split. Pac should just accept the fact that Floyd draws more PPVs and the 50-50 split would have a HUGE focus on just that, PPV buys. No wonder Floyd didnt agree to that. They should try offering him a 55-45 split and see what happens.

              would you stfu already?

              you were just on here earlier claiming that there were no, i repeat no negotiations taking place.

              you got owned in that thread and now you're trying to talk your trolling ass out of it.

              i hope you don't mind if i borrow your ******y style of coloring and enlarging your fonts to make it appear what you say has substance.

              moron.

                LOL, Floyd agreed to 50-50 last time, then it's a drug thing, now it's a money thing again.

                I guess if Pac and his next opponent do better numbers than May/Mosley did, Mayweather will say he is caling it a career again.
