It's free in the Phillipines as far as i'm aware. It's irrelevant anyway. The US satellite and terrrestrial cable numbers are the determining factor when deciding how any boxing pie will be split (cept for UK buys for a UK fighter). Frankly, Mayweather has proven he is the biggest draw in boxing time and again. MP does not deserve 50%. It's economics. It's simple.

If Pac fights a washed up Mosely I think it would do over 1.5 million. A fight against Berto would do around the same as the Margirito fight. Berto just doesn't have the name. For all you Floyd fans, Pac is a bigger draw than Mayweather. He would sell more PPVs fighting Mosely than Mayweather did. People just enjoying watching this man fight.
The truth is that the numbers for the Margarito fight are as high as Pac will ever get unless he fights Mayweather. If he fights Mayweather, Mayweather will be responsible for 70 percent of the PPV buys.

It's not trolling. What is trolling is saying FMJ is ducking a fighter or scared of a fighter because he wants more than 50%. MP doesn't deserve 50% because he is P4P # 1 and an all around nice guy with a beautiful wife, congressman (insert the rest of Ronnie's intro HERE). It's about economics. Floyd has proven over and over again he is the biggest draw in boxing.....at PPV and @ the live gate. That means he deserves more MONEY. It's simple. All the ******s who are predictably going to ask me why i care about another man's money......I DON'T. What i care about is some silly notion that the fight should be 50-50 so it's fair. WELL GUESS WAHT??? 50-50 is not fair. It's not fair to FMJ, and MP's greed, not Mayweather's is annoying. Mayweather's greed is justified. It's backed by the money he draws in. MP's greed is unjustified!!!!!!!

don't think these clowns realise Cotto is a bigger drawcard than Shane, yet Mayweather vs Mosley did more numbers than Cotto vs Pac.
In actuality Margarito is also a bigger draw than Shane.
- Margo vs Cotto = PPV
- Shane vs Cotto = PPV (did less than Marg vs Cotto)- Shane vs Margo = non-PPV.
What's the common denominator??? Cotto!!!!!

YES it is a resounding success. Anything over one million is big. We have two guys who can consistently do over 1 million right now. that hasn't happened for a long time.
Mayweather vs Pacquaio should break ODLH vs May if it ever happens.
