    Why doesn't Manny make as much money as Floyd?

    No I'm not being funny. But I find it strange that Manny vs Margo did 1.1. And FMJ vs SSM did 1.4. Yet Manny brought home 25 mil compared to Floyds whopping 40+ million. Is 300k that much of a difference??? Is BOB *ucking Manny over?

    And to those of you who I know will say some dumb **** like, "Who cares about the money?". You guys are some minimum wage mofos. Where I'm from, there isn't a better convo. And as the homie Drake said:

    Because Arum takes home a sizable chunk of what Pac makes, whereas Floyd doesn't have a promoter to pay I don't think. Golden Boy makes a percentage I'm sure but Floyd co-promotes with them, at least in title.

      So you come in here with the knowledge that a lot of people don't really care about the money fighters make, yet you still make the thread and insult people in the process.

      Go and talk about this to the people where you're from then, if they love the money aspect so much.

        Also remember that Floyd fights in the MGM where the tickets are very expensive... compared to the cheaper more widely available tickets at say... Cowboys Stadium.

        I'm sure Floyd would get a percentage of these ticket sales?

            Floyd is more popular than manny plain and simple! manny's fan base is his own people with a few fans of different race. floyd on the other hand is known by whites, blacks, asians, mexicans...

              CORRECTION: Manny Pacquiao did not - DID NOT - make $25 million for a Margarito fight.

              Manny has never made $20 million for any fight in his entire career.


              I have Manny's guarantees for his fights in Vegas, along with the details from the DLH lawsuit.

                  His guarantee (minus PPV) for that bout was $22.5million. So no.

                    doesnt arum get 23% of manny purse?
                    couple that with the fact floyds ticket values are usually more per ticket and that he probably negotiates a better PPV deal then pacquiao as he is very street wise and has numbers on his side to do the bargaining with and thats probably why he pips manny in finances
