One on One with Bob Arum
IF Manny Pacquiao fights Juan Manuel Marquez, the Filipino boxing sensation deserves to get at least $8 million.
This was what Bob Arum told the daily morning Philippine radio program “Sports Chat” where the veteran promoter was the main guest recently.
But despite the specific numbers being suggested, Arum said an immediate rematch will not be a good idea.
In the same interview Arum revealed the ticket sales which according to him is the biggest sales by far achieved by the three-division world champion.
Arum disclosed the gate sales of the fight saw an income of $3,350,000, excluding the nearly $60,000 sales of the closed-circuit coverage.
This amount, according to Arum, is Pacquiao’s all-time high, eclipsing the $2,900,000 revenue for the Filipino’s third bout with Mexican icon Erik Morales.
