Shane Mosley: I keep probably about $15 million, it's pretty good.

[Evil Abed]

So if we agree that Mosley-Mayweather is as big as the Oscar fight or bigger.

Then Floyd probably makes 35 to 40 mil.

On June 17, 2000, Mosley met De La Hoya in Los Angeles for the WBC and IBA Welterweight titles. After twelve rounds, Mosley emerged with a split decision victory. During the fight neither man was in danger of going down, but both had badly swollen faces at the end and De La Hoya was bleeding from the nose for several rounds. Mosley earned a minimum of $15 million, while De La Hoya was guaranteed $35 million.

That was ten years ago,and in case its escaped your attention,the world is broke,particularly the kind of people who have to weigh up bills,keeping their kids entertained etc. and would normally be the most likely to buy a ppv event. It'll sell, but I would be amazed if it does 1.6m.

Mosley/Mayweather has no chance of being as big as the Oscar fight. Partly because of the Recession and partly because Shane could never pull like Oscar.

Thats a nice chunk of money for Shane but he's earned the payday. He has Floyd to thank for it though.

[M.I.C.]

If Shane is getting 15 Floyd must be getting close to 25

What are you attempting to prove? That Shane could pull more than Oscar, while fighting Oscar?

Because I'm not sure any sane person would argue that Shane ever had near the PPV pull that DLH had.

[street bully]

Seems like he got his 60-40.
