Who should get the bigger purse for Mayweather/Pacquiao?

[mellow_mood]

Pac vs Hatton will get more than 800,000 buys. Hatton vs Floyd did 1.4 million buys in Britain alone. I'm sure those fans were'nt paying to watch Floyd run around. Pacquiao would have unbelievable PPV #'s in the Phillipines if the majority of the people there had access to PPV. Now they're pretty big stars in the US and Canada.

hey man.. what did the cops told you>?

I know for a fact that it wasnt more but you have to take certain things into consideration which are mayweather fighting a nobody in terms of PPV does 325,000 buys yet Pacquaio does a LITTLE MORE against a WELL KNOWN NAME/ LEGENDS.

Mayweather's last 4 PPV Buys:

Mayweather-DLH: 2,400,000 Buys
Mayweather-Hatton: 850,000 Buys
Mayweather-Judah: 375,000 Buys
Mayweather-Baldomir: 325,000 Buys

Pacquiao's last 4 PPV Buys:

Pacquiao-DLH: 1,250,000 Buys
Pacquiao-Diaz: 225,000 Buys
Pacquao-Marquez: 400,000 Buys
Pacquiao-Barrera: 350,000 Buys

Comparisons:

Mayweather-Judah did more than Pacquiao-Barrera, Mayweather-DLH did more than Pacquiao-DLH, Mayweather against a nobody did 325,000 and Pacquiao against a nobody did 225,000 buys, Mayweather-Hatton did twice more than Pacquiao-Marquez. I would also bet with you Pacquiao-Hatton does less than what Mayweather-Hatton did, the pattern will continue.

Notice when Pacquiao fought the NAMES, the LEGENDS, he still did close to what Mayweather against Baldomir, with the exception of the DLH fight which still did less than half of what Mayweather-DLH did.

Pacquiao's been fighting at a smaller weight class therefore did'nt get paid as well. Plus he did'nt break down and cry and tell everyone he won't fight unless he gets paid.

Are you his manager?

DLH-Pacquiao did 1.25 million PPV Buys, Pacquiao got a guaranteed 6 million + PPV Cut from those 1.25 million buys.

DLH-Mayweather did 2.4 million PPV Buys, Mayweather got something like a guaranteed 14 million + PPV Cut from those 2.4 million buys.

Mayweather made 30 million total from the guaranteed $ + PPV Cuts, if you compare their PPV's DLH-Pacquiao did less than half of DLH-Mayweather so Pacquiao will probably get a lower cut from the PPV's.

What did Pacquiao-Marquez II did again? Yeah lower than Mayweather-Baldomir you cant compare pacquiao to mayweather in terms of PPV's bottom line

Both were the P4P No 1 when they fought DLH.

But yeah Certain jackasses would think Pacquiao deserves the bigger purse

Nah, I was simply pointing out that he stands to make a lot more than 6 million from his fight with Oscar

DLH-Pac just did 1.25m buys and DLH-PBF did 2.15m buys, how is that less than half?

With the economy in the shape it's currently in, I'd say 1.25 million buys is a very good amount.

That's a given 50/50 split

They're looking into it. In my town they take death threats very seriously.

I do not think HBO would give anyone 32% of thier total PPV revenue,it would be 32% after they take out all the expenses, overhead and other stuff (I would imagine anyways). HBO has to make thier money also and while some peopel think they run a ****ty business for boxing they do know how to make money on PPV.

Also they will not be able to draw Mayweather out of retirement with some ****ty offer, you need to keep that in mind. He is retired they need to compensate him to come back.

If Lennox Lewis came back (from a way longer layoff) do you not think he would get paid a huge ammount more then he ever made before to rematch Vitali or fight Wlad?

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing but that's what was reported, sounds misleading... meh.

It'll probably take $20+ million to lure Money out of retirement and who can blame him for demanding that much?

Pacquiao earned a guaranteed 6 million for the DLH fight + 5.2 million from the PPV's.

Total = 11.2 million, thats less than half of what Mayweather earned which was 30 million dollars. I have already posted the PPV stats in the previous post. So who should get the bigger purse and who is the bigger draw? Clearly Mayweather, and he will dictate the negotiations.

I see Mayweather getting the bigger purse for this fight, but Pac will be MORE than PAID...he will make more than he did against Oscar...the PPV and live gate will out do both Mayweather-De La Hoya and Pac- De La Hoya...unbelievable numbers will be done in this fight.
