Pacquiao-Cotto Generates 1.25 Million Pay-Per-View Buys

the fight is off if floyd asks for more than 50%.

[aether]

That would depend and I myself don't want to say this, but Mayweather can RIGHTFULLY demand more then 50%. So I wouldn't blame Floyd.

no... 50-50 is fair.

both should accept it. they're gonna make tons of money anyways, more than any other fights. their previous ppv's are irrelevant.

pac's career is already cemented. floyd needs this fight to shut his critics.

those who say otherwise are coming up with reasons why floyd should ***** out in the biggest fight of the decade.

yup roach heard the numbers ... which are still very good and said 50/50 ... no more big talk ... i think the fact is that he knows pbf is gonna get the bigger peice of the pie ... arum did it for the 2nd time, overhyped the numbers and then when they are still great they lose luster anyways ...

DAMNIT

If Firepower had done more , 50/50 might have happened..


But Floyd gonna want a bigger piece now. Bank on it...

i think arum and co. will eventually accept around 55-45. they are businessmen, they won't let their stubbornness jeopordise a great financial opportunity by asking for more than they're worth. i'm sure they have more grounding in reality than the pac fans and mayweather detractors around here.

[PAKYO]

these "casuals" are obviously interested in mayweather seeing as they've made him the biggest ppv attraction in the sport. sorry but you're bringing up irrelevancies and speculation - the tangible evidence we have points to mayweather being worth more money as an individual than manny pacquiao

1m against juan manuel marquez is better than 1.25m against miguel cotto, especially considering the way each fight was promoted.

You had it in reverse, i mean your logic.

But it's ok, you're a ***** anyway so i understand.

I'm still waiting for the closet *****s here to come out.

I can only hope it plays out like that.

i think everyone is forgetting another big factor... UFC

floyd vs marquez went up against franklin vs vitor
pac vs cotto went up agains vera vs couture
and couture is i think top 3 biggest draw in UFC

not making excuses, pac cotto still won...

[Doctor_Tenma]

I'm 100% sure Mayweather isn't taking 50/50. This had to have done 1.5M atleast.

dude, what are you, like 14? if you want to discuss this then go ahead, i'm all ears for a reasonable argument. i'm not infallible; i'm open to being proven wrong.
