There is talk of more than 30 million per fighter not including percentage of pay perviews, I'm not sure it can go much higher. Besides Floyd is not getting any younger and he has only fought twice in 18 months and 3 times in the last 3yrs. If they were to agree to a fight you are looking at May of 2001 as a possible date and Floyd would not have fought in a year. It is hard to shake off rust and you don't get faster by not fighting. Floyd waiting is only hurting his chance at beating Manny. I think Manny beats Floyd but I also believe Floyd has the physcial skills to beat Manny but is not willing to take the physcial punishment to do so. Floyd my be waiting for Manny to slow down from all of the fights but if Floyd isn't fighting he is not keeping his skills sharp and is only hurting his chances. Besides all that Floyd and his trainer Roger have a bunch of legal problems they need to deal with.
