Some purses for Saturday's card: Mayweather 32 Million, Maidan 1.5 million

yeah, I remember Robert Garcia saying a few months ago you actually get paid more fighting Pacquiao than Mayweather, I thought he was kidding but I guess not. Tim Bradley with no fan base in two fights with Pac made as much or more than Canelo, Guerrero, Ortiz and Maidana combined. Bradley made $5 million and than $6 million for his fights with Pacman, and he has no fanbase. Canelo who brought in the majority of ticket sales and over half of the PPV buys for the Mayweather Canelo fight only got a guarantee of $5 million smh. If Canelo fights Pacman, Canelo will make way more because he will be given PPV buys as well and a higher base guarantee. And these door knobs want Manny to leave Bob because, "Floyd offered him 40 million dollars!!!" Floyd just wants to take Manny to the cleaners on the financial end. How its not more than obvious to these bums is inexplicable. They rant and rave how they care about Mannys financial well being and his ability to make the most amount of money, but make excuses when Floyd is raking in 95% of the pie versus Marcos. A truly despicable lot they are. And then, they have the audacity to say its Arum who is holding things up. Taking a look over at the GBP fiasco, its becoming clearer by the hour as to who the two shysters are. Schaeffer and Floyd. Literally trying to rob people blind.

Arum isn't so bad after all. Shows you what it must be like to do business with fmj. Only works out if your willing to get screwed. yeah, I remember Robert Garcia saying a few months ago you actually get paid more fighting Pacquiao than Mayweather, I thought he was kidding but I guess not.

Man whats crazy is Floyd claims to be the cash cow but why is it that Pacquiao's opponents get paid more than Floyds? 1.5 million and probably no ppv percentages or something ridiculous like Maidana only gets points when it reaches a certain number like 2 million buys lol meaning he won't get none. fighters should be calling Pac out over Floyd, you will probably get paid more, Canelo will get way more fighting Pacman than he did Floyd. This dude Floyd is greedy as hell. Floyd's PPV's earn more money, as does the gate, but Floyd is also paid much much much more than Pacquiao. That's why.

I see people crying about Khan getting paid the same as Maidana. :lol1: Keep crying! :bottle:

Carlos Baldomir got $1.6million to fight Floyd..... A 100k for being the Lineal Champion I guess.

Because of fanboys who go to fights because of one fighter who is fighting, not because they called for the fight or they think the style of the fighters will make it a entertaining competitive bout. They are brought in by the hype and personalities, little to do with boxing. People are really stupid. Says the man that is lapping up everything that spews out of Bob Arum's mouth.

Floyd is a crook Its sad Maidana is getting pennies When his the exciting fighter And floyd just comes to win by points

Who cares how much they make? :lol1: :lol1: If you don't care, why are you posting so much? No one "cares", it's just interesting that Maidana is getting paid fuk all to fight Mayweather. Boy got bum raped. I feel sorry for him tbh Was thinking the same thing...... Webb is just concerned that Floyd will be seen as a rapist and a cherry picker .... all in one swoop. :lol1:

WTF is this trash. Am I the only one that gets pissed off for a boxer putting his life on the line for only 150k on a freakin mega PPV event?!?? After taxes, manager fees, trainers, etc.. what he's left with 40-50k? WTF type bull**** is that?

Carlos Baldomir got $1.6million to fight Floyd..... Ouch...lol

when its time to leave the dressing room Maidana demand a few more million or walk no fight

Showtime/CBS finna lose booku dollars on this bulls*t. Showtime can't be making much off of Floyd. I wonder who they will force Floyd to fight after this flops? "Fought Canelo for the fans doe" :lol1: sike

Maidana took short money to get the fight, as got said he had no real leverage and 1.5 million is a lot of money to him. So he get's his biggest ever purse, and a huge opportunity that could make him a ton more money if he comes through. Same thing with Collazo really, although he probably have made 350k or close to it before but it has been a while since he would have got a payday like that and this a great opportunity for him to secure more paydays that are equal or better. It is not always about the money for the lesser guy coming in, it is that opportunity to take that step forward to make more in the end. What they really did was take money from the b-side and spread it around the card, they could have paid Maidana 5 and not spent on Khan and Broner but I don't think that would help the card. This well said. Smart move by GBP, Haymon, and specially Mayweather.

Showtime/CBS finna lose booku dollars on this bulls*t.

Broner's less than I thought, 1.25 M To recap purses: Mayweather $32 mill, Maidana $1.5 mill, Khan $1.5 mill, Collazo 300k, Broner $1.25 mil, Molina 150k, Love 100k, Periban 35k— Kevin Iole (@KevinI) April 30, 2014 So 3.3 million for the undercard, that is a lot especially considering like 80% is concentrated on two guys. That is like 100k buys this would need to produce to break even, by itself and I think that would be asking a lot.

well why didnt he? He could have probably fought kell brook on this card? Because Khan isnt stupid like Maidana He can fight Collazo on a damn undercard and get 1.5 mil, if he wins he gets the Floyd fight, and he will more than likely get around 3 mil - 5 mil for that and after that he can fight Brook the brook fight will always be there

Also this purse for Maidana reflects what Showtime is expecting this PPV to do numbers wise, which isn't much. They spent almost no money promoting this fight, no media tour, only time Floyd was doing interviews outside of fight week was when GBP had other fights happening. Showtime is trying to control costs so they don't run into another Guerrero money pit like last year... ...and during the Pacquiao fight...lol. You gotta admit it's genius.
