last i remembered was corrales

I've got the Corrales fight and I'm sure Lampley or Merchant say Mayweather was the betting favourite.

[Emphasis]

I've got the Corrales fight and I'm sure Lampley or Merchant say Mayweather was the betting favourite.

Merchant says 6-5 odds in Floyd's favor or something along those lines, then Lampley says "but it's getting closer in the late betting".

Either it was dead even, or it was slightly in someones favor. Not many expected what happened though.

man , you can join him too if you want and we could this all day long and see whos playing dumb...
lone bum said 25 % is the maximum for penalty for a guy that comes overweight.....the expected purse for each if they split 50/50 is about 40 mil.....25% of 40 mil is 10 mil......you undrestand?.....

[The Big Dunn]

But you don't count the ppv sales etc as the purse. In floyd's last fight his purse was $22.5 mil. After they factored in ppv sales, live gate, and the money he received b/c he is promoter, then his total was approx $35-$40 mil.

The purse for each fighter is expected to be about $25 mil. 25% of 25 mil is $6.25 mil.

[El Protagonista]

I don't remember. It wasn't Corrales. He was a slight betting favorite against Chico.

Are you sure that's the purse? That sounds more like what they're expected to make. That's different from the purse.

where do you get that idea you dont count it?....

Because the purse is separate. As an example if floyd ssm had done 3mil ppv or 100k ppv floyd's purse, $22.5 mil was unchanged. The total amount earned, purse +ppv sales+ live gate % would be changed.

Also, when two fighters can't reach a deal there is usually a purse bid where fighters are awarded a % of the purse. The purse is split 55%-45% etc. This split doesn't factor in the amount made from theaters, ppvs etc.
