Horus Presents: WHY is Team Pacquiao making getting 50% a STICKING POINT!!!

[Deevel916]

14 day drug testing killed the fight the first time, why is Pac fine with it now?
Were u calling Pac out for ducking then?

Bringing up OSTD period is what killed the fight.

lol at this poster never getting the point. he meant floyd agreed to 50/50 before why not now?

and if pac is fine w/ the 14day cutoff now, at least thats a step in the right direction, while floyd's upping his split is in the WRONG direction of making the fight happen.

see the difference???

All I gotta say to you Horus is this, who in the world can Mayweather fight and can bring in the numbers Pac/May will? Fact of the matter is yes Mayweather is a slightly better PPV draw but nobody else brings the chance for a 2+mil PPV besides Pac. This isn't a Huge star/unknown fight, its two huge stars fighting and even though one has sold a bit more, in relative terms they are equal especially when considering all of the alternatives.

I give that this fight would probably be as big as Mayweather vs. De la hoya.
but that doesnt change the fact that when everything is considered.
they are not equal in terms of financial consideration.

Which is the point, if everyone knows that Pacquiao is not a equal draw as Mayweather, why is he making 50% a sticking point.???

they are not equal.
The true objective measures to prove this which are numbers proved this.
Anyone who can count should understand this point.

Like I SAID BEFORE,
60/40, 55/45 , 53/47 Should get it done based on Previous Guaranteed Purses and Previous Fight Revenue income generated.

50/50 should not be a sticking point for team Pacquiao...
Is my point. Because they dont deserve it.

Because no facts support their argument.

All you can go by right now is who's in high demand as we speak. Would Ray Leonard get a bigger purse split than Floyd right now being he's technically packed more arenas than Floyd? Right now, it's both Pacquiao and Mayweather. Nobody wants to see them fight anyone else besides each other and both are the best in the world. As I stated, looking at the purse split is minuscule in comparison to what other money both guys will generate from PPV buys, endorsements, promotion, gate, etc.

And Pacquiao turned it down. Which in my opinion was the best deal he could have ever gotten from Mayweather.

Mayweather gave Pacquiao the best case senerio back in December. And Pacquiao turn it down.

Now that Pacquiao has proven he is not as big of draw as Mayweather. and Mayweather has proven without a doubt he is a bigger than than Manny.
With his last fight with Mosley which did better than any Manny Pacquiao ppv in his career.

The circumstances have now changed, and Pacquiao needs to realise he blew a perfect oppurntunity last year and that deal is gone.

Honestly Horus I think the argument boils down to this; is 150k more buys enough to justify anything more than 50-50? I honestly don't believe it is which is why I feel the fight should be 50-50. I'm a Pac fan no doubt, but I also said the same thing when Pac did 1.25 with Cotto vs. Floyd only doing 1 million with Marquez. 50-50 was fair then just like it is now.

FWIW Marquez has headlined just as many PPV's as Cotto if not more. Not saying that he is a bigger draw than Miguel, but this is something I found interesting when people were claiming Mayweather carried that PPV by himself.

Great thread Horus!

Based on your logic, We should never used fighters past as a measure to place their present, unfortunately for your logic it doesn’t apply to current world circumstances and procedures.


right now Pacquiao just did 700k ppv vs. Mayweather 1.4 PPV.

Like I said before, the deciding factors behind determining what a fighter should received when it comes to the split of the revenue.

Are Previous Guaranteed Purses and Previous Fight Revenue income generated.

These measures are the only true and fair measures to determine what should fairly get distributed during a purse dispute. As a result, any reasonable person with a decent education can see that Team Pacquiao by both measures of Previous Guaranteed Purses and Previous Fight Revenue income generated has not earned or deserve the right to make getting 50% of the money a sticking point in order to get the fight.
