Floyd: $20 million...Marquez: $10 million

[The Gambler1981]

Very true.

It kinda reminds me of that Mike Tyson quote.......



Only in Floyd's case ; he might not sell it out. But he would make $20 million for it.

He might not sell out the arena but he would get 450k PPV buys on the off chance he rips his own **** off (and that sect of people that just want to watch Floyd masterbate).

i'm very happy for my man marquez if this is true

the dude deserves it

Sure does. Can someone tell me what he got for the Pacquiao fight? Split and figures?

[BmoreBrawler]

"hey but fraud gayweather isnt a draw.."

Sort of like Bernie Madoff.

[Sox8055]

For christ sake. Floyd/Marquez fight can't generate that kind of money.. Bull****...

Obviously Pac cant..

He's fighting Money Mayweather what do you expect.

1.5 million was his biggest to date, that was in the second Pacman fight.

Buu,

Would you please explain how the fights economics work?

Thanks.

i don't know you tell me. you're the numbers analyst/expert.

$30 million dollar purse is a LOT.

i'm not dissing floyd. i'm not dissing jmm. get the stick out of your ass. i'm not hating on them. i'm just saying those numbers can't be realistic.

i'm just stating that $30 million dollars is a lot.

even if this fight sells 1 million ppv buys , $30 million for just the fighters is a lot.

is it just the fighters that need to get paid? HBO doesn't need any money? the promoters don't need any money?

the numbers i heard thrown around for pac-hatton was about $12 million a piece.

that's with probably 1 million u.k. ppv at about $25 a piece.

Oh, you mean larrysmith?

[QUISQUEYA]

Instead of hating on him, these other fighters should ask themselves what they are doing wrong: "why is Floyd able to make so much money"?

[SIZE="3"]I mean, Mayweather made more to fight Bruseles than Mosley made for Margarito. That is bananas.

But I'm glad for Marquez. There was not a fight at lightweight that would pay him even half that amount.[/SIZE]

I try not to judge what others do with their entertainment dollars.

[Left Hook Tua]

Getting more than Pacquiao...all I can say..He obviously brings more money to the table.

he can get more than pacquiao.

he can draw more than pacquiao.

i don't care. not my problem.

i just find the purse estimate too high. if they can get paid that much , more power to them.
