Your source obviously isn't very connected because if he knew anythin he would know that a promoter can not take a percentage of a fighters purse unless he is fighting on a card promoted by another promoter. It's called the Muhammed Ali Act. Look it up. This will be a Top Rank/GBP-MP co=promotion which means that Arum's take lives in the live gate, advertising and PPV. Manny's purse is Manny's purse. He would owe his manager, advisor, trainer, etc...., but not his promoter.
So quit filling this forum crap and just wait like everyone else.Comment

Im not saying its fully legit but what he says make sense. Floyd is in no way fighting Pac for 50/50. There isnt even any use of debating it. Thats why Roach came out quickly to say 50/50 after they were saying 60/40 for so long.
As Ive told people a million times, you can say what you want about everyone involved but Arum is the greediest person of them all so he can talk all that other fight crap if he wants but he knows that he will make way more off this fight than any other so why risk putting Pac against someone else who he may lose against and Arum makes 10x less? Floyd wants 60/40 but he also wants the fight so it makes sense for everyone to settle for Floyd getting 55/45 and Arum covers some of Pac's with the extra 5% like he did in the Hatton fight when Pac was also going to back out of that before Arum kicked in that extra change.
Like it or not, Floyd is right about Arum taking a ton of Pac's money so its only right to kick him some change every once in awhile. Im not saying its a sure thing but everything he said seems on point to me with how things would go and it makes more sense to announce it after New Years. That was all the holidays are gone, the longer you wait the closer it is to the fight which is good because people hate hearing about things a long ways off, and you will be announcing it in the same calender year instead of doing it now and announcing something thats happening in almost the middle of next year. Makes sense to me. The annoucment will also get its own shine instead of now when it will be lost in all the Holiday stuffComment

no offense man but Mayweather is giving money to GBP for no reason what so ever. Arum can not touch Manny's purse, it is against federal law. check the Ali Act. Mayweather left Top Rank because he believed Arum was robbing him but yet he starts up his own promotional company only to hire another promotional company to represent him? Doesn't make a lot of sense except that Mayweather Promotions is nothing but a part of GBP. If Mayweather and Ellerbe had any sense they would let Arum and HBO promote this show as a co-promotion with Mayweather Promotions and get his 25% cut of the PPV, half the upside of the live gate and his huge purse and cut GBP out because they are really not even needed on this fight.Comment

I know you guys are cappin' on the TS, but his story actually sounds plausible.
If you use the "common opponents" argument, I can see ***** boy getting more cash.Comment

Arum has had no problem negotiating with Haymon on other fights. I think the latter of your statement is true though. There is really no such thing as Mayweather Promotions.Comment
