After the infamous phone call between Mayweather and Pacquiao, many wanted to know exactly what they were talking about. I don’t think either of them have any true ill will toward each other, but they can’t seem to get on the same page for this fight.
Here is what Floyd says happen on the call.
For all the good will that Mayweather has built up over the past couple of weeks pushing for the fight, he just flushed it down the toilet.
The 50/50 split should be the easiest thing to negotiate.
Pacquiao’s team has given 101 excuses, but not getting a 50/50 split is a legitimate reason not to fight. This is a 1a/1b situation, Mayweather will always make more because he doesn’t have a promoter, so even in a 50/50 split he would come out on top money wise.
Was Floyd just playing us all?
Is he no different than Bob Arum?
Because his statement makes no sense at all and he isn’t a dumb individual, he knows that Manny won’t get in the ring without a 50/50 split (even though Manny is on record saying he would take a little less).
Both of these guys for lack of a better term are BSing and once again don’t hold your breath on this fight ever happening and now it is Mayweather who put the latest obstacle up.
