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

[kushking]

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

The ppv revenue is majority of the purse & it damn sure is never 50-50 or they wouldn't keep it secret.

I doubt Bob is worried about this going to bid. If the rumors are true about Crawford leaving TR after this fight, then Bob losing the bid to Hearn or PBC would be the best thing that could happen to him.......

But you're completely missing what actually happened here.

Bob knew he was losing Crawford to PBC after his next fight. The plan was to stick him in with a guy with a chin, pray he doesn't knock him out and then **** him on the cards. Leaving Top Rank without losing your WBO title is nearly impossible.

Haymon found the perfect work around. It's checkmate now. There's nothing Arum can do to stop the WBO title from going to PBC. **** Crawford on the cards and the belt still goes to PBC. Who wins the purse bid is irrelevant. PBC wins regardless.

It’s crazy that Spence, who’s such a financial success and PPV star, couldn’t even demand a better cut than what Terence Crawford, total nobody, got with Shawn Porter.

Spence had to overpay to get Porter in the ring because Porter had the most important belt and Spence wanted to unify.

Porter lost that fight, lost that belt, has nothing to offer now and no leverage, yet still got 40% against Crawford. The current beltless Porter, who already lost to Spence, would be getting less than 40% if his next fight was against Spence.

You're purposely comparing apples to oranges. Stop being a troll.

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

40 is 66% or 2/3 of 60, conversely 60 is 150% or 3/2 of 40... ie 50% percent more.. Not that it matters I was just curious what sorts of numbers we were talking. A quick check looks like Bud got $4 mil apiece for Brook and Egidijus and $5.5 mil for Khan... so maybe $13.5 mil altoghter which x2/3 means Porter probably got an offical $9 mil over the last 3.

Since Bob doesnt have anyone significant at 147, I doubt he cares what happens to the WBO title. JMO..............
