[carts]

Mayweather has bigger fish to fry. They've been going their separate ways for awhile now and Floyd is fighting the big boys while Pac is bringing up the lightweights and junior welters

what happened to the "take the test and we have a fight" keep sucking *****

ADP02 pick an alias and stick with one please.

Kidding .... that's not me.

Fraud Jr. fought Hatton at 147lbs(ineffective weight), fought Marquez at 145lbs(ineffective weight), fought Victor Ortiz 147lbs(remember when Ortiz was NASTY 140lbs fighter?)... In most situations it was Fraud Jr. picking on smaller guys unlike Pacquiao being outweighed by nearly 20lbs in some fights. lol. Fraud and his lover boys are brainwashed dead heads.

Sure it pops up if that is what you are looking for~

Do you though bro, if you want to hound a dude over taxes and keep close tabs on the matter more power to you. It is public information afterall.

You seem real happy about those facts or why put in those exclamation points~

No...just happy that I actually back up the things I say and you obviously don't!!

Owing almost 14 million is a BIG DEAL!! It means Floyd needs the Cotto fight to help pay that off! And Uncle Sam still has to take his share from the Cotto fight on top of the 14 mil!! And IF the IRS puts a lien on his purse before it gets transferred to Floyd, he will end up with less than 10 million net from the Cotto fight!

Mayweather and Pacquiao agree to 50-50 purse split – News
December 5th, 2009

By Manuel Perez: ESPN writer Dan Rafael is reporting that Floyd Mayweather Jr. and World Boxing Organization welterweight champion Manny Pacquiao have signed a contract for the March 13th bout, and the purse split is going to be 50-50 for the $80 million. Gee, I wonder what happened to Pacquiao and his 60-40?

Thank god Pacquiao came back down to earth and agreed to the 50-50. I personally still think Mayweather should have gotten the most money, but whatever. Rafael says that no location for the bout has been selected yet. 8 oz gloves will be worn. That should benefit Mayweather, the quicker fighter. The best part of the deal is that the fight will be held at 147, rather than another catch weight. That’s good news.

Rafael says that for promotional purposes that the bout will be called “Mayweather-Pacquiao” with Mayweather’s name coming before Pacquiao. That makes sense, because Mayweather is the undefeated fighter and the one fighting in his home country. “M” comes before “P”, so Pacquiao should come after Mayweather in my view. But seriously, Mayweather has been a flawless performer in America for years now and has entertained audiences here for a decade.

I sure wish Pacquiao had fought someone like Timothy Bradley instead of Hatton, and Shane Mosley or Antonio Margarito instead of the recently beaten Cotto. And in place of De La Hoya, I would have liked to have seen Pacquiao fight Paul Williams. He and his management team have been great at match making until now, because he’s been kept out of fights against Bradley, Williams and Mosley for some reason.

ownage.........

You mean when he was getting stopped by Maidana and outboxed by Peterson?

His win at 147 against Berto is far and beyond the best win of his career.

Freddie Roach himself, amongst many others who worked with him said he was killing himself at make 140 and should have moved to 147 years ago.

And, Ortiz is vastly bigger than Floyd Mayweather.

Yeah, I know.

Mayweather's latest stance (100% of the PPV revenue) is damn near impossible to defend. This is coming from one of the biggest fans of Mayweather.

But the original Micheal Marley article, that was unspecific, just simply "I'll take less money" could obviously be thought of as less of the PPV money.

But, it's confirmed now according to Pacquaio that he didn't mean that so I guess that article is irrelevant.

Actually the reports said. I will accept (take) A lesser amount"(not THE lesser amount). This can easily be that he'll take less than he was originlly expecting to get, say 50% instead of 55%. I don't see this as suggesting taking less than Mayweather.

It means Marquez wanted to move up to fight Floyd, and I didn't agree with it. But the poster is acting like he was bloating up Marquez or something, which is not true.

How come when its Marquez moving up, its because he wanted to but when Bradley moves up, its Pacquiao picking on him?

It actually says;

"I am willing to take less money than Mayweather because the important thing is making the fight happen"

So he's in actual fact, literally, saying he's willing to take less money than Mayweather. In that article.
