Pac should be getting at least 72-25 against you know who

These are guaranteed minimum numbers not including endorsements for Pac.

[icebergisonfire]

Manny Pacquiao = 50 million for 2 fights
Floyd made 40 against Victor Ortiz and he's making another 40 against Miguel

That looks like 80 million vs 50 million for the same number of fights.

You want to try that again?

Ortiz= 2011

Based on the structuring of Floyd's deal with Golden Boy, right?

Gotta assume Arum is taking monies that would otherwise be going straight into the hands of Pacquiao.

How have Mayweather and Pacquiao's PPV events performed H2H? I don't honestly know.

Floyd spent over 10 million of his own money promoting the Ortiz fight. And he only fought once that year so your argument makes no sense. Thats like saying ARod could play 2 baseball season in one year and would've got 60 million.

At the end of the day you only get paid for what you did and Pac made over 50 mill guaranteed and floyd made less than 30 (not including endorsement which Pac has many and floyd has none.
