ESPN reported that Mayweather sent SportsCenter anchor Stan Verrett an e-mail that rejected a 50/50 purse split with Pacquiao....something that Manny has said he's agreeable to. According to Verrett, Floyd wrote: "He asked about a 50/50 split and I told him that can't happen, but what can happen is you can make more money fighting me than you have made in your career." So there you have it. Mayweather is still about fighting Pacquiao in the media because if he were truly serious about fighting him, he'd jump at the 50/50 purse split. Can there be any boxing fans alive who don't see that Mayweather has used the nuanced drug testing and demands for purse parity as a ruses to avoid the fight? Does anyone who remotely follows professional boxing not understand that fighting Pacquiao would not only be the most lucrative bout of Mayweather's career, but also the most important and signature fight of it? And can anyone make a case as to why one deserves a bigger split of the money over the other? Of course not, because one doesn't exist. Mayweather's insistence that he receives the lion's share of the money is just the first step in him trying to control all the terms of the fight. And if Pacquiao/Arum ever conceded to Floyd's demands on how the money is divided they would be dancing to Mayweather's beat and drummer on everything else right up until the last bell concluding the fight. The good news is maybe Mayweather has dropped the demands for the Olympic style pre-fight drug testing because that wasn't mentioned as part of the conversation between he and Manny. Then again maybe he's assuming the sale and is operating under the pretense that that's already part of the deal. One thing is for certain, it's become nauseating watching Mayweather string everyone along and tease them into thinking he wants to fight Pacquiao in a fair fight. The fact of the matter is Mayweather, who I believe is confident that he can beat Pacquiao, doesn't want to chance it. Not at all. The Pacquiao-Mayweather talk and hype has become a big joke and an embarrassment to a professional sport that continually reinvents ways to make itself less and less relevant to those who it depends on to support it. There's been a ton of talk of how a Pacquiao-Mayweather clash would be the biggest fight in boxing history. And no doubt from a money perspective it would be. That is mostly because it would be the latest superfight to take place and there are no other fights that can be made that would stimulate quasi boxing fans. And that's because the fighters who round out the rest of boxing's pound-for-pound top ten are either 47 years old or only known to the small percentage of hardcore boxing fans still in existence. Remember, what Pacquiao has achieved has been off the charts. But it's not like we've never seen him stopped or defeated before. As for Mayweather - has there ever been another so called great boxer who ducked more elite fighters than he has, or waited until they were an empty package before fighting them? So why would a fight between them be so must see? Boxing history is replete with all time greats facing each other several times without the games and excuses Mayweather has sunk to in order to insure he has every advantage in the world if he ever does meet Pacquiao. Floyd Mayweather has been so terrific and great that once he's retired he'll never be an immediate mention or thought when talk of the greatest fighters/boxers in history are bantered about. And that's because despite him retiring undefeated, nobody will remember where they were the night Mayweather fought such and such unless he fights Pacquiao in a fair fight without gimmicks and stipulations. And that's sad, because Mayweather could and would beat the smaller Pacquiao if they ever fought. Maybe it's better for both Mayweather and Pacquiao if they never meet. If that's what happens, Pacquiao can continue making a ton of money and Arum doesn't have to worry about losing a bulk of his income. As for Mayweather, he also can continue to make a ton of money without ever being at risk and continue to claim a de facto victory over Pacquiao. If they string this along too much longer, even the marks are going to stop caring.

They didn't and/or couldn't follow up because of Money May's deceptions and diversions, which will not deter Da Manny from staying on top of his arse and knocking it OUT, EARLY! Money Jay says: Floyd is tripping now...give the boy 50/50, and make the fight. I ride or die with my dude, but right now, I'm dying man. I hope that is some sort of mindf***ing Floyd is trying to pull with Manny..or maybe he's mindf***ed the entire world...WTF is really good?? BTW, @ Radam G, ain't no cyberbeef with you my dawg, I'm as real as they come, and I actually think your funny as ******, lol. I just wanna see Floyd piece this fool out, but I'm really getting tired of the games that are apart of trying to make this fight. Games that are being played by both sides, Top Rank, and Mayweather. It's like going steady with the baddest chick in your class, and she keeps teasing you every time you try and smash... she'll let you see it, smell it, but you can't hit it...WTF is going on?? brownsugar says: mayweather asking for 70 % after the fight was so close is an abomination,.. make the f***n fight or stop off. but it's a ruse... if the fight doesn't happen because there is no compromise... then I must step aside and give credence to the naysayers. amayseng says: Floyd does not want the fight, plain and simple. How many games were played when floyd signed to fight ortiz? none. i barely heard anything, out of no where the contract was signed and the fight was made. easy as that. i know boxing is a business but floyd is finding a reason to halt the fight, the top 2 best in the last ten years dont go 70-30 or 60-40, no way no how... anyone who would support that is biased and not a true fan of the sport. juantotre says: I got a better deal for Manny and Money, ali says: Yeah Mayweather is tripping right now I still don't think he's scared to pac...I think he feels like he's the bigger draw so he deserves a bigger slice of the pie and he's right cuz that's how boxing works ....But at the end of the day he should say **** it and take 50/50 or try to work something out to were the winner would get a bigger % of the money...hopefully he's just doing this to see if he can get away with it. amayseng says: ali.......because he thinks he is the bigger draw? no it is because he does not want the fight. the easiest way to avoid a fight without seeming a coward is to price your self out. the Roast says: Looks like Floyd doesn't want the fight. 50/50 is the only way to go. Radam G says: Money May doesn't deserves a bigger part, and he is not the bigger draw. He is a man of straw. And da bytch is always guilty of violating every agreement and da law. And his nuthuggers, bandwagon jumpers, groupies, fanboys, fanfaronades and flunkies, he knows how to claw. ali says: [QUOTE=amayseng;12833]ali.......because he thinks he is the bigger draw? no it is because he does not want the fight. the easiest way to avoid a fight without seeming a coward is to price your self out. ali says: @Amayseng are u saying Mayweather ain't loved by his ppl? Look everybody knows in other counties the fans support u more then the fans do in the United States. Pac is basically all the Philippines have to look up to. TotoyBato says: 'Tis true, looks like Floyd's biggest fight will be against (fighting off) BIG BUBBA in June 1st. I'm betting BIG BUBBA will have his way on that PRETTY BOY. TotoyBato says: Floyd does not need to fight Manny Pacquiao right now. Floyd's about to face a great crisis. Stay safe Floyd. Brothers please protect Floyd. We need him at 100 % when he attempts to cement his legacy as the greatest boxer of all time. mortcola says: [QUOTE=TotoyBato;12846]Floyd does not need to fight Manny Pacquiao right now.

Pac is basically all the Philippines have to look up to." themanwhocantbemoved says: what totoy bato really means that "we need Floyd to be 100% when he attempts to cement his legacy" is that we him need in his best condition when he tries to fight pacquiao so that if he lose he wont have an excuse..... because manny is the only man who can cement his legacy, when or lose.... ali says: @amayseng u r crazy as hell Mayweather did better numbers with ortiz then Pac did with Marquez and Marquez has a way bigger fan base then Ortiz. Cotto vs Pac didn't do better numbers then Mayweather vs Marquez so Cotto ain't even close Trinidad numbers vs Oscar ain't nowhere near what Mayweather did with Oscar. Y'all Mayweather haters always seem to forget is all these mega superstar fighters did they best numbers fighting Mayweather. mortcola says: [QUOTE=ali;12849]@Mortcola why do u say its too late?[/QUOTE] TotoyBato says: Right on Mr. [B][U]themanwhocantbemoved[/U][/B]!!! There is intelligence that reads through these mostly gibberish posts. Floyd's Legacy could be as Undefeated, best Lb for LB fighter of all time. Best and most intelligent sports moneymaker of all time. But who cares about Legacy and Money when your rectum is about to be prolapsed. DaveB says: Mayweather is definitely tripping. Pacquaio did 1.4 million buys vs. Marquez. Mayweather did 1.25 million buys vs. Ortiz. Which ever way you cut it one is going to do better than the other on a given ppv. They are both cash cows, they are among the two best if not the two best p4p fighters, and the masses want to see this fight so 50-50 is the way to go. Why is Mayweather trying to dictate everything to the degree that it looks like he has no intention of wanting this fight to ever happen? Sure Pacquaio and Mayweather can dictate to everyone else that they get the bigger purse or other advantages but they can not do that to one another. The fact that each of them wants to do that has been problematic since the time this fight seemed like it could become a possibility. Mayweather is his own agent and Pacquaio through Arum has been as much of a problem, so Pacquaio shares the blame too. To demand 70-30 is an abomination and a slap in the face to everyone everywhere. There has to be some give and take. Didn't Holmes have parity with Cooney? Didn't Ali have parity with Foreman? In this fight parity is easy to justify. The real question is do they want it or not? The world has been waiting over two years for the answer. ali says: @mortcola....I guess only time will tell if not Pac right now then who is acceptable? Cotto, Martinez good enough opposition to enhance his legacy I say it is. Grimm says: [QUOTE=ali;12852]Mayweather did better numbers with ortiz then Pac did with Marquez and Marquez has a way bigger fan base then Ortiz.(---) Y'all Mayweather haters always seem to forget is all these mega superstar fighters did they best numbers fighting Mayweather.[/QUOTE] ali says: Now all of sudden the numbers are lying....ODLH got alot more money then Pac and Mayweather when he fought them why? Because of the numbers not because they went on line and seen a voting poll on who's more popular. U have to go by the money the generate when they fight period. Now I said Mayweather should just take the 50/50 split whoop his *** and move on to bigger and better things. Radam G says: You are such a know nothing and fibber, SCLA Ali. Da Manny is not the only anything, we "have to look up to in the Philippines." And nowhere else. Quit keyboard tapping and making yourself look so foolish. Coxs Corner says: When Ali and Frazier fought the first time there was no argument over who should get more. Ali was the star and the "draw", both had claims to the title but they agreed to a 50-50 split. I see Pacman due to his punch and usually more exciting fights more of a draw to the general public than Mayweather but it don't matter. This fight should be 50-50 for the fight the public most wants to see. The fight would have been better and more meaningful if it happened in 2009. If they fight now its 3 years late. ali says: Radam that **** really ruffled your feathers...Now u see how it feels when ppl speak on your race and don't know what they talking about ... what's crazy is I said ain't nearly as bad as what u said and u got the nerve to get your panties in a bunch wow! !!! Straight sucker sh*t... Radam G says: WRONG! You have not "ruffled" my "feathers." I know African American black. You apparently don't know any type of Pinoy/Pinay, because you make up all type of unheard of nonsense. ali says: Filipino history month is in october which has 31 days. Radam G says: I'm being sarcastic about how you have been short changed. Hehehehe! Holla! Radam G says: To tell you the truth, SCLA Ali, kid me used to educate blacks, especially Nation of Islam Muslims and groupies who hanged around the GOAT Ali's entourage back in da day, to why blacks got the shorest month to celebrate "Black History." Know-nothing muthasuckas were always talking about a conspiracy against 'em. And you know me. I'm "down with O-P-P." Hehehehehe! Money Jay says: @Ali, that boy Radam got real soft when the shoe was on the other foot! He just mad cuz we dominate every major sport, with maybe the exception of baseball, lol. Radam, quit all ur rambling...its 2012 bro, and my president is black. Everybody hate Floyd cuz he's young, rich, and yes black. You can't deny the boy skill set, It's one of the best in the history of the sport. BTW Radam, Spolstra is a puppet, Pat Riley runs the heat sucka!! ali says: Ok triple OG....go tell ya boy lil Floyd all this **** u saying about him on TSS and maybe he will get so mad that he will take the 50/50 split and beat yo ur boy ***. ali says: [QUOTE=Money Jay;12881]@Ali, that boy Radam got real soft when the shoe was on the other foot!

Radam G says: BIG Homie SCLA Ali, I REPEAT that I NEVER, NEVER make or have MADE a RACIST comment. Point one after out to ME, and I will salute YOU, BOW and never come to this site AGAIN. WOW! None of you muthafudgas and muthasuckas are down with Webster Dictionary, apparent commonsense and da human rainbow. C'mon Homie Ali! WEAK byches roll with racism, not a strong Pinoy bro, like yours truly. Pinoy got it going on with "PEOPLE POWER!" Later for weak-tiny-arse racism. We KAYOED dat jive like __ _ ___! Radam G says: See how the nutcases come outta of the wood. Somebody should tell small money jay what time it is. Of course the U.S. Prez is black and straight outta Asia. Born in Hawaii and reared there and in Indonesia. Color him black -- many Asians are -- but know that he is ASIAN to da bone! riverside says: TSS has really turned into some bizarre psycholical place, more spookier than funny Radam G says: Hehehehe! That is cold-hearted, riverside. Now you know that you have gotten on your "some bizarre...spookier than funny" spit on occasions. Holla! Radam G says: This is my LAST spit on this subject. I got a call from one of my civil rights' boys. He told me to pay those tired jokers behind the curtain no mind, no time and no luv. But you know me. I'm down with one last drop of O-P-P!

No matter how many times we tell ourselves that we're not going to get sucked into the Mayweather vs. Pacquiao subterfuge, we always do. However, Mayweather relayed something in his phone call to Pacquiao last week that indicated what we probably already knew, that is Floyd isn't as serious as he wants us to think he is about making the fight with Pacquiao.



As I've said, "CALL A SPADE A SPADE! Money May has never wanted this bout to be made. It is nonsense to say that some fighters are not scare of others. We, who all have been in that squared jungle, know that there are some fighters that just scare the holly heck and double hebejebeez outta of us. And if we can, we'll stay away from them.
Money May can con every Stank -- I mean Yank -- and his sidekick into believing that Da Manny doesn't want none [sic]. And this is just the way superiority thinking rolls. On its arse, it never wants the truth to unfold. Just to play games. And to get the nuthuggers, fanboys, fanfaronades and groupies all fired up.
Once again, Da Manny will kayo weak-chinned Money May EARLY! Money May has RUN the greatest con in the sweet science's history. He, just as his Uncles Roger and Jeff, has a weak chin -- glass all up in da jaw. But you don't know that and will never believe that because he has been running any optical illusion of fighting broke-down, used-up and green-arse, cherry-picked pugilists who he could edge out with his psy ops and black ops propaganda. He doesn't scare Da Manny a bit, thus Money May will not go anywhere near dat t*t.
The only Pacquiao that Mayweather beats is an imaginary one. Because dat sucka Money May will never step to da real one. Holla!
