clottey guaranteed 1M

[DC Fight Fan]

If clottey gets $4, assuming the ppv is $50, and hbo and top rank gets half, leaving 25 dollars to be shared by pacquiao and clottey, then its an 85%-15%, or at best 80%-20% split?

1/2 of all buys is split up between on demand and hbo

that leaves 25 bucks

4 Clottey
6 Pac
15 Arum - before he gets flamed remember that Arum has to pay all the purses, marketing, venue rental, etc... for the event.

Of course. But who else were they going to fight?

Mathew Hatton.

Are your numbers accurate? This is how ppv are split? Damn, makes the fighters feel "**********d". Its their sweat and blood, yet they basically get 6 out of the 50 for pacquiao (12%), and 4 out of 50 for clottey (8%).

and who shares on the 25M venue fee paid by the dallas cowboys owner, Jerry Jones?

arum is a scum...

How many PPV's do you predict Pac/Clottey does?

I don't think the PPV numbers will be all that great - A Philippine fighter fighting a fighter from Ghana at Dallas stadium. I don't see, other than the hardcore fan ... how public attention is stimulated.

IMO, Dallas stadium is not a good place to have fights, because there is nothing to do post-fight. Big fights have always been associated with Vegas and the post-fight activities.

W'sup my man.

I think 1 mil is not so good. Sure it's a lot of money to us, but considering how much Pacquiao will make it's peanuts.

My point exactly - Clottey should have at the very least, gotten a similar deal\percentage to what Cotto got to fight Pac. Giving 1mill to Clottey while Pac is taking 70% more is unfair and goes to how much of a snake Arum is.

[MR.CHICANITO]

considering cotto got I think 6M, i also expected clottey to be offered higher than 1M. Again, the others are right. He is happy to receive 1M, I am still trying to look for that article, but if I recall, the highest purse Clottey ever received was 300K.

now hopefully joshua clottey can put up a great fight and earn extra bucks by taking the fight to manny pacquaio i give him a decent chance to make it a good fight so that 1million should be well deserved and earned by joshua clottey

[Ch@mpBox@PR]

Thats ****ing chump change. Atleast 2.5 mills, but 1? **** outta here,

Clottey got screwed

[M.I.C.]

I think 1M is a slap in the face, especially in a so called big fight like this. If anyone still views Pac as this little humble innocent guy, your wrong. He and Arum are tit for tat

pac the real cash cow
