Pacquiao is now the top draw in Boxing. He is entittle to make more money than PBF, period. Pacquiao has a social force backing him up. He is world known.

ODLH made PBF and Pacquiao anyway... people bought the PPV's because they were facing Oscar. Then, PBF and PAcquiao took it from there. Now the average joe can't stop talking about Pacquiao everytime they see me at work. people don't realize this... PAC is making an historical run to All Time Boxing Greatest List. He passed PBF.

Yes, but... still...

Mayweather is just not going to go for what you are proposing.

It just won't happen, regardless of what the numbers show... Mayweather won't take 35%... I'd risk a lot on that.

Why must PBF be paid more than PAC??? RIGHT NOW, PAC is DA MAN. PBF took a vacation and his beloved thronesit as the number 1 P4P now belongs to Pacquiao. IF PBF demanded more money for been considered the best, now he has to take the role of the challenger, and thus LESS MONEY.

Oscar De La Hoya was never considered the better p4p in any of his recent megafights but he still recieved more money because he was the BIGGER DRAW. Its Draw thet dictates a split not p4p ranking. If that was the case JMM wouldnt need to jump 3 weight classes just to receive a decent paycheck.

Pac is a beast & huge draw, but he aint no Mayweather

[cottothechamp]

damn bob arum sucks for boxing. This fight needs to just get made, aint all bout the money anymore, its about finding who is the true p4p.

See this is the thing about Bob Arum that just pisses me off. When a fighter makes a lofty demand he bit(hes and moans and complains that they "priced themselves out." But then he'll go and say something like this that could potentially kill negotiations for a fight that fans want to see like Mayweather-Pacquiao, but the fu(kin' Top Rank butt pirates still like to **** on Golden Boy affiliated fighters who supposedly always "price themselves out (Arum, 1978...2009)."
