floyd vs pacquiao purse split

[77Ritchie77]

i don't think pac should get 50/50.
idk the exact numbers, but floyd vs hatton and dlh outsold pac vs hatton and dlh.
say may vs hatton did 1.2 million and pac vs hatton did 1 million
and may vs dlh did 2.2 million and pac vs dlh did 1.2 million
floyd should get 2.2 + 1.2 / 2.2 +1.2 + 1 + 1.2 = 3.4/ 5.6
= approx. 60% floyd 40% pac. i am guessing at those numbers, but i think thats how they should do the split.
they may also want to add in the buys from each fighters most recent PPV, i don't know who this will benefit more, most people say pacquiao so maybe it will bve more like 55-45, but w/e. mayweather at this point deserves more than pac.
when they actually use this formula i want $100 from each fighter lol

who do you guys think should get more money and why?

[S.G.]

Considering past revenue generation of each party, Floyd deserves the slightly bigger slice

But Arum and Roach will never go for that so Mayweather needs to compromise and accept 50%. He needs this fight

That's true but then you have the fact that Cotto/Pac will outsell PBF/JMM by a mile so Floyd can't really use the arguement that he's the bigger draw anymore..I think 50/50 is more than fair..maybe 55/45 like u said (in Floyds favor)... I don't know why they just can't do 45/45 with the winner taking the other 10%

50/50 is fair... or 40/40 and the winner gets the last 20.

Comparing PPV sales of Cotto-Pac to Mayweather-JMM are not really fair. Floyd is in with a good fighter who is serving more as a re-tune for bigger fights. Cotto-Pac is the biggest fight either fighter has been in.

A better pair of fights to compare would have been Mayweather-Mosley and Cotto-Pac.

I don't mean to rain on the parade, but I think it is far to early to think about this type of stuff.

Being the true boxing fan that I am (and after seeing a few videos posted on this site) i'm not so sure that both Floyd or Pac will win.

Don't get me wrong, I did pick Floyd, but not by alot. I think pushing the fight back gave JMM a chance to adjust to the weight, and it will be a much tougher fight than most think...

I also picked Pac to KO Cotto, but that is just a pick. Cotto may very well destroy Pac.

We may end up asking the split between Cotto and JMM.

Just saying it is to early for stuff like this.

You make a good point, but it is pretty unfair to compare PPV's when it isn't against the same opponent, I still agree with what your opinion on the split is though, even is fair... or they do 45/45 winner gets 10 or 40/40 winner gets 20.

[77Ritchie77]

i think its too early too. i'm just sick of pac fans saying he deserves more than floyd, so i wanted to see if they had any coherent reasons why they think so. haven;t heard any yet.

pbf did do better numbers with dlh and hatton, but pac's fights with dlh and hatton were in a recession.

right now pac is the biggest ticket in town. pbf stands to make more going 50/50 w/ pac than 70/30 with any other boxer.

if floyd doesn't make that fight, he's an idiot.

[el malo]

wait a minute, pac and floyd are gonna fight? whats the date for the fight?
