they can't speak about the splits right now, from Floyd's assistant...
are you implying pac/floyd have agreed on how they are going to split the money?
David: No but they are talking
David Levi
I'll be able to post more details about the purses and split in a couple days, but not while negotiations are happening.

I can't give details of the money at the moment but it'll be released in a couple days I'm sure.
If they agree on money, they won't on testing.
12SixElbow - If they agree on money, they won't on testing.
we'll see

That might have been true in the past when it looked like Manny couldnt be beaten but now I think Floyd is more willing to take the fight.
if Manny ran over JMM in his last fight I'd say if they agreed to a date, split, venue, testing Floyd would bring up the color of Mannys shoes, his gloves, his walkout music, anything to delay the fight but now I think Floyd believes he can beat Manny easily after that JMM fight so I think they could work a deal out.
Plus both of them know the money to be made on this fight is insane, they will walk away with so much money and the winner will really cement his legacy, this fight has to happen, they both know it.
To let this opportunity pass would be one of the biggest fuck ups in sports history imo. They've delayed it so long and all it would have taken would be one of them to lose and the fight loses interest, money lessens etc, why take the chance Manny loses, FLoyd loses?
JMM has always made Manny look bad
I'm not going to play this game!
If this fight happens, I really want to hear Dana or Joe talk about boxing being dead.
Because the UFC is doing what, 300K for some events now?
And Brock, Chuck and Randy won't be back.
Boxing as a whole is down.
But Floyd/Manny makes UFC 100 look like Straight Dave's Man Slammin' Max Out.
sgotwalks - I'm not going to play this game!
HHH
Good to hear after Arum said some crap about Manny possibly fighting everyone but Mayweather.
I honestly dont think this fight will ever happen....EVA!!!
I just read earlier this morning on one of the threads that Floyd wants a 70/30 split?!?!
Fucking joke...
Floyd originally said 50/50 was ok, now he's backing away from that

they can't discuss splits because of negotiations, don't listen to said email sent to ESPN, the media don't always give out credible info, this is coming straight from his assistant..
