Comments Thread For: Pacquiao Says Mayweather Offered a $40 Million Flat Fee

[tikay00]

Look man, at the end of the day if it aint 50-50, its straight up duck job. You think more people knew foreman than they did ali? Yet they got the same fight purse for the rumble in the jungle. It's because the EVENT was so grand and spectacular. You cant possibly in your right mind think 1 fighter can get more than the other, with a fight of this magnitude. You cant possibly think that. A ***** sure can.......

For a first offer i think its good numbers definitely, But i think they could do better, For me Arum or Pac arent ******, they would rather share a PPV than go for a flat fee, Even at 50-50 pac isnt getting anything close to what Mayweather would get, So am surprised Mayweather is offering Pac 40M, That offer would be rejected if they ever fax it to Arum straight away.

Like i have said many times 50-50 or NO fight and i fully support that, But it makes sense to go after this fight with the first offer at 40M than go fighting in june for 20M even after PPV share.

But, the first offer was 50/50...They agreed to 50/50. By all accounts the split was never an issue. OST was the issue, date and the venue was the issue. The split was agreed upon. Then the split became an issue where 50/50 wasn't good enough. So to go an agreed 50/50 split to a flat fee of 40mil is not really a good offer.

Anything other than a 50-50 split across the boards, is a straight up duck job by floyd. *****s and *******s alike, can we all agree on this?.......Of course not, *****s have a sick intense bond with a man that they do not even know. Yeah he has skills for days, but damn to the lengths you guys defend the guy, its border line GAY/IDOL WORSHIPPING. Like fa real, not a single ***** can possibly have a girlfreind, because their so preoccupied thinking about or having to defend this man at every turn, using the most ridiculous angles, and statements.
The reason why i dont go at the *******s as hard as the *****s, is because theirs a certain venomous tone to the ***** fans, like they will literally fist fight you over this man. They will take law courses and finance courses, just to find 1 little thing that they can use to explain all this bs. *******s are horrible as well, but you *****s are seriously demented in the head.

You could say the same for *******s.I did`nt see any *******s criritcize manny for not agreeing to a random test with no cutoffs when Pacquiao rejected it.I didn`t see any *******s get on on Pacquiao when he contradicted himself numerous times,i didn`t see *******s get on Pacquiao when Pacquiao said he felt he won the last fight with Marquez when Pacquiao know himself that he did`nt.

yeah, but that has nothing to do with floyd or this fight. Okay so lets say this is how sporting events worked. For example, it's the nba finals. The new york knicks vs the LA lakers. Both huge markets, both equally iconic figures in basketball. Do you think the New york knicks would get a 60-40 split, because the lakers dont make as much money, because the city of los angeles is corrupt and wont pay them as much? NO, you pay them both the exact same amount of money to the penny. Because they both generate the same amount of interest and buzz. Remember floyd's not spending a dime on this event. I could see if maybe floyd was heading the event coordination, the dates for the press conferences, the intro pyro and lighting for the arena, the funds for the commercial spots, paying advertisement fees for channels like hbo, cnn, every channel on this plant for this fight. Dude come on man, anything other than 50-50 is straight duck duck goose.

I agree that the fight should be 50/50 but if you think that`s enough to make the fight then you`ve been living somewhere in a cave for the past two years and just recently came out.

i`m sure Floyd would agree to a 50/50 split but Bob Arum does not want this fight,he`s made excuse after excuse after excuse to not make this fight.

[FeFist]

Yea he's trying to rip-off Pac lol, At the end of the day if the fight goes to 50-50 then yes Pac would make more than 40M but if he stuck with Arum and fight whoever he fights in june he makes less than 20M, And why arent you outrage on how Pac is been ripped off by Arum? But you want to be when Mayweather offered him a flat fee?

fool, its arum's job to rip his ass off. He promotes pacquiao. Its not right, but manny's ****** enough to sign the contract with his evil ass. Floyd is not his manager, promoter, accountant, or pastor. Why the hell would he just straight up accept a flat fee from another OPPONENT, knowing damn well they both have the same name recognition, manny more so.

Lol at you calling a member who has far more sense and credibility than you a dumb ass.

look at my post above,i`ve already said the fight should be a 50/50 split,my point is you acting like *******s are better then *****s when they are not.

[tikay00]

true true, you right. i guess i got blinders on, because im caught up in the latest who dunnit episode. My fault. So ok, floms AND *******S are both ass holes. is that cool?

I see it like this. If they don't make the fight because Floyd doesn't want to give a 50/50 split and because Pac doesn't want to fight on MGM on May 5th. Then is both of their fault...Lately personally I was blaming Pac. Saying that this was the biggest duck since Bowe-Lewis...But, once Floyd started this split nonsense like an idiot. Then I can't solely blame Pac. Until Floyd agree's to 50/50.

The reason why we didn't criticize manny for not wanting to go Along with the ost is because there was no reason to. Floyd said manny is easy work no skills so how u gonna demand ost from An easy work? And best believe manny got it hard from us I even went as far as texting the dude to let him know when he was talking about his next opponent. We all told him it better be floyd! So dont sit there and say we don't criticized the guy. Ok maybe I went to far about the texting part that didn't happen lol..
