Floyd did twice as many ppvs as Pac, so why should he bow down to 50-50?

[pbftxrs316]

Pac also had more than twice the attendance........thread fail!

you ****** ****---they fought in a stadium---of course he'll have the bigger turn out jackass----the ppv buys though are even though in terms of both fighters having the same chance of people buying it----manny and clottey did 700,000 ppv buys----floyd and shane crushed that by doubling it----floyd deserves at least 60/40 over manny---and he'll most likely get it----for a guy who so boring to you dumbasses, he sure knows how to bring em in huh? he still holds the record for most ppv buys, and just topped de la hoya/trinidad i believe-----he is the biggest star in boxing, period---not manny---floyd is---

and when he fights manny, i expect the ppv buys to break de la hoya's and floyd's---meaning once again, floyd will hold the record and the 2nd highest record----and the highest for a non-heavyweight fight---

and remember, the fight was 65 dollars plus tax and fees, and shipping and handling-lol

The 1.4 number is a lie. The fight did 1.1 max.

Furthermore, you can't compare Pac/Clottey and Shane/Floyd.

One was viewed as a stay busy fight w/ no 24/7 and no hype.

The other had a 24/7 and mass media hype.

lol
gotta love when folks argue with no facts

Dont start this bull****. Do you wanna see the danm fight or not? 50/50 or this aint happening, why do you give a **** who gets more money it doesn't effect you does it? So GTFO with that bollocks.

[DuttyAlacrity]

we all want to see this fight happen but let's be real Pac does not deserve a 50% cut. At worst it should be 45/55 Floyd

[Sweet Jesus]

If Floyd is smart, he'll give him the 50/50 split but demand USADA testing until the day before the fight.

1. Do we wanna pay to see Manny and Floyd fight or do we wanna pay to see them count out money?


2. Pac and Clotty had minor advertising, was not billed as pac's "toughest" fight to date and had no HBO 24/7 coverage.


3. Is Floyd gonna make the kinda money he would make on a 50/50 pac split with anyother fighter?

Thanks for clarifying that. People claim to not care about PPV sales, but the minute Pac outsells Floyd in a fight, there will be a million threads about it. Floyd wants the fight, I'm sure splits wouldn't stop it. It ain't gon be no 50/50 though.

1. We pay to see them fight.

2. It was Team Pacquiao's fault for ducking their hardest challenge and fighting a gatekeeper in Clottey. You reap what you sow. Also, let's not act like they didn't have a countdown show "Road to Dallas" and the gliterring venue of the new Cowboys stadium helping their promotion.

3. Is Manny gonna make the kinda money he would make on a 45/55 floyd split with any other fighter?

[johnle43]

who gives a **** about the split? why do you morons care about it anyway? u aint getttin a cut.

sit back and jus hope for the fight!

id say something but this just about covers it all. agreed 100%

maybe it has something to do with ppl HOPING the fight doesnt happen? i dunno.

[BuckToothed]

against a guy who wont even take random drug tests...lol i know philipine is good at math, so tell me why floyd does double the ppvs as manny but should take 50-50....i know what the *******s are saying, well floyd fought mosley while pac fought clottey, well guess what....maybe pac shouldnt have fought clottey then!

the worst part is instead pac will fight b-lister championship with cotto/foreman winner or give a so not needed $10 million payday to margarito...plaster aside why does a guy who got his ass kicked and beat a journeyman in his last 2 fights deserve a ppv....personally imo he needs to avenge the singsurat and torrecampo losses...

I think he did that already by being FOTD. Where are those two guys now??? Oh yeah, as a footnote on Manny's L column.
