floyd already ducking manny again!
- Thread starter corinthian
- Start date
last time I checked, floyd originally demanded a 14 day cutoff for testing. even though he didn't hold himself to that same cutoff for the mosley fight(they stopped testing at 18 days). pac agrees to the 14 day cutoff, then floyd changes it. now pac agrees to the up to 24 hour cutoff for testing and now floyd starts demanding something else.
doesn't get anymore clearer than that and that was said back in july. GOT EM!!.

Nice article but I see and watch a lot of things on boxing and as far as I know he has never agreed to testing up to 24 hours before the fight. If he has changed his mind then once its officially announced then we will have sumthin. I dont think he has agreed to it myself despite that quoted article u typed. Also are u sure about that Mayweather/Mosley testing because I was sure they were tested atleast a week before the fight if not closer? Got Em!!
Right, he made $25 million + some of the cut for the PPV. So he probably got around $32-$35 million for the Ortiz fight.
the other thing you have to remember is that Ortiz only got $2 million gauranteed with a small upside of the PPV, so Floyd got like 90% of the purse or something crazy like that and Ortiz got 10% or less of the purse. Obviously Floyd would have to get 50/50 with Pacquiao so $70 million is likely pushing it. More realistically both Pac & Floyd should walk away with around $50 million, which is still absolutely absurd for one fight. But neither Floyd or Pac can make that kind of money against anyone else in the sport.
