If Cotto beats Pac, Floyd will lowball both Pac and Cotto. Cotto just beat the #1 P4P but Floyd will still try and get 70/30, to which Arum will gladly reply "go screw yourself, Floyd". If Pac loses Floyd will ask for 80/20, which Manny will happily decline on his way to retirement and becoming an singing senator in the Philippines.
If Pac beats Cotto, Floyd will still lowball Pac because he thinks he deserves more than the #1 P4P fighter who incidentally just beat a top fighter in a higher weight class. If Cotto loses, Floyd will lowball him the same way he lowballs a losing Manny, driving Cotto to a rematch with either Shane or Margarito.
PBF will be stuck with Shane because Shane doesn't mind a smaller piece of the pie just to prove that he is better than PBF. PBF will say that Shane doesn't deserve even a tiny piece of the pie and declines the fight.
In conclusion, there will be neither a Cotto nor a Pac nor a Shane fight. So who is PBF left with? JCC Jr., the future cashcow at Middleweight for another belt at another division and another "megafight" for Floyd. Would Arum even allow this?
