Richard Schaefer Latest On Mayweather vs Pacquiao

[Bernie Madoff]

that shows OD getting 30 dollars of every buy and the promotional partners splitting the balance at 15 dollars per buy. Then Arum cuts Manny in on his 15 dollars at 3 dollars give or take(use your own number as this is a hypothetical). Mayweather would be left with 15 dollars of every buy. If he cuts Golden Boy you better know that they would want at least 7.50 dollars a buy of Mayweathers nut cutting Mayweather's PPV upside from 30 mill to 15 mill.

It is just plain ****** when Top Rank and HBO are going to promote the hell out of this thing anyway and this thing is going to sell anyway. What it really tells me is that Mayweather has signed papers with Golden Boy quietly and is really a Golden Boy fighter. Mayweather Promotions is just a name.

MP is just a name. It is a pass-through imprint.

But GBP gets NOWHERE NEAR what you laid out. the proposal you laid out is (respectfully) laughable.

MP subcontracts out to GBP and MP takes a promoter's cut. In every fight since Judah, FMJ has don one-fight deals with various promoters. Remember that he used GTP for "Pretty Risky".

There are a lot of things that you are not taking into consideration with your financial analysis. For example, corporate taxes.

FMJ does not have a promotional contract with GBP. He subcontracts them on a fight-by-fight basis. By doing it thusly, it gives him leverage to negotiate individual deals. (remember the convos w DKP last year?)

posters are more interested in making the little dude look bad than actually thinking about the situation objectively.

"I'm currently having conversations with Team Mayweather.. once we know the kind of deal structure we'll be willing to do, I'll then reach out to Pacquiao's people and see if we can put the deal together.."

I expect Schaeffer to start being his BIATCH self by ridiculing and deriding Pac's achievements and character like he and Golden Boy Promotions always does once formal talks by both camps begin.

Roach and Arum do that alot, too... it works both ways.

I'm confused as to why Scaeffer is even involved. What about Mayweather Promotions? How ignorant is Mayweather to be asking for more money and then turn around and give it to Golden Boy for nothing. Think about this for a second. This fight is going to sell out the live gate regardless. It is going to break PPV records regardless. So think of this hypothetical equations.

Purses 40 Million

Paquiao 20 million
Mayweather 20 million


PPV 2 million buys at 60 bucks equal 120 million in revenue

On Demand 60 million
Arum 24 million
Pacquiao 6 million
Mayweather 30 million
