Under the radar: 60/40 split proves Porter was right all along

[Citizen Koba]

Yes its usually 80/20 when Buds Super champ,but in this case they averaged out the last 3 fights & determined that Bud earned 20% more than Porter in last 3 fights. (they also round up if its say 17% for example)
under super champs rules:

I know how you mean it but just for the sake of clarity Bud must have earned 1.5x as much as Porter in his last 3 to make it 60/40 cos 60 is 1.5x 40.... so if Bud has earned $9 mil over his last 3 (which may be in right ballpark) then Porter would have had to earn $6 mil over his last 3 to make it 60/40. The 60/40 ratio means Bud has earned 50% more than Shawn not 20%.

It's quite a sensible system actually, for once... not something I usually expect from a sanctioning org. It's obvious that a flat rate doesn't always do justice to one or other fighter, although I'd argue that the incumbent should always get at the very minimum 40% irrespective of how much more the challenger is generally worth (and I'd maybe even argue 50%). After all being Champ has to be worth something even if you ain't a popular fighter.

Terence Crawford, pre-Porter fight, is a bigger star than Errol Spence was, pre-Porter fight?

And Spence-Porter was two fights ago?

50-50 split for Spence-Crawford is making a lot of sense right now using your logic.

Spence is now a star BECAUSE he fought Porter & DSG,& now Pac who Crawford couldn't afford to pay,& Spence is getting more than Bud would've gotten even in the middle east.

I didn’t have to smoke crack to posts facts you don’t have an answer too.

Its why you insulted me instead of making an argument against said facts.

How much crack did you smoke before posting this?

Im not sure what you're saying is accurate, because wouldn't Bud be getting 75% if that were the case?(40 is 66% of 60) maybe you're right though

you keep forgetting Porter had a title going into Spence fight & was on pbc. Context do you speak it?

edit:
And actually just did a quick search & see you're wrong as usual. Spence & Porter didn't get a 50/50 split. Spence likely made far more.

Why does Porter’s title matter if Spence is such a star.

And the split was 50-50.

Show me where you seen that? Everywhere I looked it says"split 2 mil each "plus ppv" aka they only declare 2 mil each fighter but Spence gets most the ppv money as he was already the ppv draw(not to be confused with being Floyd,a draw means he can make ppvs consistently & sell enough to be worth it)

[ShaneMosleySr]

You just said the purse split was even.

You literally wrote it in your statement.

What part of "plus ppv" don't you understand?that means they didn't disclose the real split & Spence surely got most of it because he was reported to have made 8 mil iirc. Plus he was the ppv draw & Porter knew it. the 2 mil each doesn't mean they got even ppv cut.(just like when ggg & Brook went 50-50 on initial reported purse but Brook got all the ppv Because he was the draw not ggg)

[ShaneMosleySr]

Spence got 50% of the purse plus PPV revenue. Crawford will get 60% of the purse plus PPV revenue.
