So you're saying the "PPV don't matter" argument is not relavent to the split?Usually that "PPV don't matter" argument is when Floyd/stans claiming how much more he sells, deserving obscene splits. Nobody but these two can pull the numbers they do and in the big picture, they're equals.
There are many, many Floyd flans saying this fight will only do 500k, boycotts, cheating accusations, etc, etc. Don't even play like Floyd fans don't do that ****, there just happens to be less Floyd fans here.
Double standard is liking a guy for saying "**** you fans, you ain't ****."
So Ricky/Cotto/Clottey/Marg all went 50/50 with Manny? If not, why? I'll tell you why, Manny sells more than those guys.
So the argument is valid. I'm siure if the numbers were the other way around, Manny fans would Manny deserved a bigger split (If you deny that, I'd have to call you a lie)..
I admit they are equal as stars in the sport, but it's clear that one generates more numbers than the other (Thats no swipe at Manny, but it's true).
I could care less about the split, it's the double standards.Comment

Your right, Floyd sells more than Manny but the numbers they do are so far ahead of anyone else they are definately in the same class. People here were trying to justify 60/40 in favor of Floyd and IMO, he doesn't sell enough more to justify anything higher than a slight favor.So you're saying the "PPV don't matter" argument is not relavent to the split?

I reckon if Margo Pac does well PPV the split should be 48,49 to 51,52 Floyds way , if it does bad then 55-45 maybe , 60/40 is rediculas and maybe put out there publicly but it wont get passed first base in the negotiation .Your right, Floyd sells more than Manny but the numbers they do are so far ahead of anyone else they are definately in the same class.

But people got to realize this is a business because the layers negotiating sure do ,, the money generating power of a fighter in relation to his opponent will definetly call the shots on purse splits , I would happy as can be if Floyd agreed once again to 50/50 but I dont think he will unless the weeks fight does real big PPV numbers .Last edited by Reloaded; 11-03-2010, 06:23 PM.Comment

Whats sad is that PPV numbers are even argued about. The only ones who should be concerned is those who profit from it. Why would a fan be concerned at all?
When I choose to watch a PPV, the only thing that myself, family, and guests are concerned about is to have a good time.Comment
