Pacquiao: I asked for a 50-50 deal with Mayweather and said I would agree to the blood testing but he wouldn’t do it
February 20th, 2012
By Chris Williams: WBO welterweight champion Manny Pacquiao is still talking about his failed negotiations for a mega fight against WBC welterweight champion Floyd Mayweather Jr., complaining to Yahoo Sports that Mayweather didn’t want to accept his offer of a 50-50 deal plus the pay-per-view money.
Pacquiao told Yahoo Sports as quoted by sportsiluustrated.cnn.com “I told him, ‘OK, 50-50 and I’ll agree to everything else. I told him I would agree to all of the other things he was demanding. Everything. Even the blood testing he wanted, I would do it. But it had to be 50-50. He talks, he says all this, but you know what: He doesn’t want the fight. I want the fight. I’m the one who has wanted this fight all along.”
Oh, so Pacquiao finally agreeing to the blood testing. It took him long enough. He had the chance to make the fight with Mayweather Jr. in 2010 but wanted a long non-testing period of over three weeks before the fight. What in the world is that? Three and half weeks of no testing before the fight. I’m not surprised the fight didn’t happen. But now that Pacquiao is saying yes to the testing two years later, it’s too late to get that same 50-50 deal for the money because Pacquiao looks to have slipped a couple of notches and won a fight in his last bout looked like a textbook version of a gift decision in his fight against 38-year-old lightweight Juan Manuel Marquez.
This is the same Marquez that Mayweather completely shut out two years ago when Marquez was a little younger, but Pacquiao went life and death with Marquez, winning for the second time in a row a controversial decision. I’d say that Pacquiao doesn’t deserve a 50-50 deal, because Mayweather is clearly at the top of his game, while Pacquiao has clearly slipped and is fading fast.

You on this thread talking rubbish too lmao. Again go do some research and as far back as 2 years ago Pacquiao ON VIDEO said he will take the test. You can not take a test if the fight is not happening. WoW you blow me away with your stupidity. Mosley is OLD and you would take every test under the sun to get a hell of a pay day. JMM did not do RBT by the way, Ortiz like Mosley would do RBT because he is a NO-one in comparison to Floyd. Your excuses hold no water, holes everywhere.
Floyd goes I want I want I want bwaah bwahh boohoo. No one would except $40mil of a potential $160. Thats 3 times more money for Floyd when he has not acheived 3 times as much. I agree he is an ATG but has to man up now and stop avoiding fighters in their primes.
Pacman is retiring because of religion.
Will lil floyd convert to Muslim after jail time like Ali? If so, what should be his new name?
hey williams (which one are you? serena, venus or vanessa,, LOL) ur mind is so clouded either with mere hate for pacquiao or just greed to have more hits for your pathetic blog from gazillion of pacmaniacs out there it makes me sick really, go get a real job and not pin your hopes on getting more moolah from blogging,,, you dig?
f..k you white rice,im 6ft.2,man eating giant?
if the payperviewers decided who their purchase money went to in all his fights. Mayweather would be broke. just sayin’
What are you Mayweather fans going to say when Mayweather gets a gift decision over Cotto! Pac knocked him out. Mayweather WILL struggle with Cotto. Styles make fights in boxing. Example: Jermaine Taylor beats Hopkins TWICE. Palvic destroys Taylor. Hopkins destroys Palvic.
A blind man can see arum is protecting Pacgirl
Pacgirl is a fraud
fm vs mp is strarting to get stale.
50 -50 does this need to be solved?
pac is getting a lesser oponent and less money ,so is fraud maynever so what.
You´re good in twisting words. Pacquiao was not complaining, he was interviewed amd amswered the question. You got also the wrong information. Mayweather claimed Pacquiao demanded 50-50 split. The truth is Pacquiao offered 45-45 and the left 10% will take by the winner. Wrong again!
im more of a mayweather fan than pacquiao. but u cant say someone is declining fast after one fight u have to respect him he has won belts in more division’s than mayweather. 8 incase u idiots forgot
Pac is already rich.dont mind the money pac.
Its all about your dignity.and the braveheart of pinoy
Excuses after excuses after excuses after excuse after excuses….That’s Floyd demand. No ending story. Just go to JAIL FLOYD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
another good sell by chris keeping the hype alive..:D peace!
three years of yak-yak-yaking…..blah-blah-blah …yak-yak-yak
tweet-tweet-tweet-……more yak-yak-yak……only to boil down
this simple arithmetic : 50 – 50
and still won’t work! Don’t they teach this in the ghetto?
Manny has become a joke in boxing. Real boxing fans laugh every time a midget calls him great!
Floyd would NEVER run out of excuses to avoid Pacquiao. Just be honest to yourself. How did this whole thing started? It started when Pacquiao KO Hatton is just 2 rounds where Sr. was the trainer. They accuse Pacqcuiao for PED and they ask for blood test.Pacquiao responsed to blood for 30 days before the fight then Floyd changed it to 14 days then random then 50-50 split then he goes to jail. lol
i think mannys die heart fool fans know in there little heart that pacquiao cant beat mayweather. even alex ariza said it ,and he works for pacquiao!
It’s okay. Manny wasn’t native English speaker but everybody understand what he said.
Floyd will not fight Manny unless he decided to retire.
Mayweather family against Floyd fighting with Manny because they knew Floyd will be beaten by Manny.
That’s why they created PED story. Next time, Floyd will demand one of Manny hands must be tied. How Coward Floyd was?
He needs to check who he was, every time he demand for the fight.
Floyd may be 0 lost records but he will always remember as Coward in American boxing history.
manny still hasnt mastered english and stuggles to get his point across. by ‘he’, he must obviously be referring to bob arum, the last man who wants the fight to happen.
Pac dont deserve 50/50.. he is fighting in mayweathers home country and is not as popular as Floyd and manny’s skills are not that great any more. Go back and watch his fights the last few years. you pactards say floyd is scared and will get knocked out? Pac has not had a ko in years! But he is going to ko the best defense fighter out there? Get real tards!
Another Idiot Writer !!
The P4P King deserves a 50/50 split. A congressman and peoples champ vs a soon to be incarserated woman beater ?? What is this country coming to ??
this chrissy is an idiot
You talk about logic but when Manny offered Mayweather $40 million he wasn’t willing to accept that so why should manny? After all if you look at the last 3 fight of both fighters, Manny had higher PPV views! so again why should manny accept anything less than 50/50?
The # 1 p4p not get 50/50. something is serious wrong here. Chris William wrote this article..
Hhhahhahaaahahah”. Lol know what he going to say…… Chris william is floy sr. On drop vision…….
i think america is the home of the brave? so why is mayweather living in america??
the pacman was invited by ali’s birthday including hollywood stars and some greatest boxers, i wonder why maynever is not invited there??!!!

Pacs offer is reasonable as compared to Mayweather’s. Floyd offered manny $40mil guaranteed purse but without a share on PPV buys. With their fight easily garnering in the vicinity of $180-200mil that’s easily $160mil going to floyd. Only a foolish floydiot would take that damn offer.
Lol. Hard out there for haterz. The pac haterz try so hard. Lol.
Pac fought Cotto when he was seriously wieght drained, Mayweather is fitting fully legit Cotto at his best weight
pac fought cotto when cotto was at his prime (during this time, he was avoided by floyd). aside from that, pac fought cotto when pac was new at welter.
now, floyd will fight a has-been, washed up fighter. nice cherry picking floyd.
and by the way, what happen to “i want the winner of PWill-martinez fight”? have floyd forgotten already who won that fight?
manny is finished he knows it , already bob arum has found the replacement . tim bradley by SD , manny should have put a catchweight on bradley at least that would have made him more of an easier pushover.
cw, how can you be so damned stupid? anyway, at the beginning of his article, I already stopped, cause I know it’s bs! you should stop writing dude…
the FOTD and only 8-belt holder CANNOT get less than 50% … stick it into ur thick skulls floydiots
“AVOID PACQUIAO AT ALL COST”…………This is the constant theme of the MAYWEATHERS.
They seem to want the fight………but>>>>>>>>
Pacquiao is now talking from right out of his arse again….He was the one who said talk to my promotha….Pacquiao is lying he can’t even talk for himself.lol!
What else can i say….Coward Floyd jr is too scared to Pacman…that’s it period.Bwahahahahaha!
Suddenly Zombie Chris has resurrected..again? Go back to hell Chris..that’s where you belong!
@ Bobo
You sound like a silly A Z Z little kid.
@Boxinghasbeen killedbyamidget
I agree with u! Pacman is greater than Running Floyd!
Pacman all the way! Even Mohammad Ali is in favor of Pacman against Floyd!
Floyd Joy Jr. scared of a little one-dimensional, no defense, amateurish midget. A real brotha would have countered offered with winner take all.
PACQUIAO IS THE BEST! EAT YOUR HEART OUT! HEHEHEHEHE! BWAHAHAA..
At this point is all he said she said… I could careless about these two so you can decide who’s the she. Does it really matter anymore? Ok, we get it the fights not gonna happen. Big deal. Pac, retire and be president, sing bad songs and make bad movies. Floyed, keep running your mouth and fighting once a year. There are so many other good fights to be made. Time to move on!

All these true champ (PAC) haters
I must have to talk bad about pac to get on this site
Mayweather doesn’t need Pac to make $50 mill a fight, but Pac needs him, no way I would accept a 50-50 either if I was mayweather
Pac will never have the balls to fight Mayweather.
pac man is a fool he cant get 50-50 with a frighter like money may.
come on pac man money may is 42-0p4p the best ever,u got ko 4 times and lost 5,money may should get more money sayt 70-30
excuses already being lined up for pacmans loss.
Cwis (Jamal) please stop embawsing your self. It ain’t pwetty!
There you have it, bible boy admitting that he cared more about the money than making the fight for the fans. What happened to “I’ll take a smaller share” or ” I’ll fight him in jail”. Yes, Mayweather,fights for money, but he admits it. Manny is the people’s champ? Riiiight…The fight will never happen. Thanks Manny.. For nothing.
agreed. but do what it takes to make it happen. i will respect pacquiao even if he gets shut out completely
‘
lol what a little crybaby Pinoy.
wah wah wah Cotto wouldn’t give me my cowardly catchweight.
wah wah wah Floyd wouldn’t give me 50/50.
wah wah wah I’m a pinoy I have yellow coward’s blood running in my vens.
