MAYWEATHER dominates Pacquiao sales. Again. And again. And again.

How much did u guys get of that cash? Oh yeah NONE! So why do u as Fight Fans, care about a boxers finance's???

If you didn't care, why did you respond?

Doesn't the cable company or whatever, Time Warner Cable, I don't know, get 50% of that, and then Floyd and Ortiz get the other 50%...and from whatever total is left after the cable company takes their big 50% share, Floyd gets his 80% of that money? I don't know how that works, you seem to know more, so explain to me.

I mean, I know with the already $25million guaranteed that Floyd is gonna get, added up with the PPV share, gate revenue, that he gets, I can see him getting a total of over $50 million dollars.

I'm gonna do the math real quick, if it is how I think. I'm thinking more that I just misunderstood your post, maybe did you mean that he makes about $55mill in total.


1.45buys x $60[price of PPV] = 87mill

50% of $87million dollars= 43.5 million dollars, that goes to the cable company.

That means there's 43.5million left for Mayweather and Ortiz to share.

If Mayweather gets 80% of that[if that's even the percentage he's getting], then that's 80% of 43.5mill which equals 34.8mill. 34.8mill plus 25 mill is like $60 Million, which is a humongous amount of money for 1 fight, let alone for one year. That's about the mount of money Derek Jeter and Alex Rodriguez, two of the highest paid baseball players in the Major Leagues, earn in one year worth of hard played baseball COMBINED[They each make around 30million a year], where each of them play over 140 games, with every game averaging about 2 and half hours, while Floyd fights a total of 10 minutes and gets what they get in a whole year, put together. Insane amount of money.

Something has to be off. No way Victor Ortiz makes $11million dollars from PPV revenue, plus the already $2.5mill he's guaranteed, that would have him earning almost $15mill. That's too much. Mayweather probably is getting more than 80% of the PPV revenue.

Shed some light on this, I am obviously lost.

You forgot Golden boy promotions and running costs

lol to OP now

[American Dream]

lol to OP now

why, what were the PPV numbers for JMM/Pac III?
I wasnt aware they were announced.

[Champ Is Here]

Money/Mosley sold more than pac/mosley. Pac/Margarito did a belly flop as well as PAC/Jmm 3

This is for puga and everyone else living in la la land

[puga]

last common opponet = jmm

floyd vs jmm = 1.025 mil
pac vs jmm 3= 1.25 mil.....for anyone who says this are close numbers needs to go back to elementary....

floyd = was
pac = is, current

simple enough?....lol
