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

[Gino Ros]

Its quite simple actually. most of the 'boxing fans' just ride on pacquios nuts. Yet they have never went to his fights. Thats okay, but then there are people who have never been too one. I guess thats okay too. But then there are those who just stream every one of his fights and talk on here. Am i being harsh here lol

In one of my first marketing classes in B-school, I was taught that after all the talking is done, people vote with their wallets.


Yeah, you may THINK or SAY the new Chevy SSR or Chrystler PT Cruiser is hot. But people actually BUY Honda Accords and Toyota Camrys.

...and that's all that matters.

"Buzz" doesn't pay the bills.

manny doesnt make as much as kfc every fight because manny does not over charge his fans and price gouge like mayfeathers!!!!! manny keeps the ticket prices and the ppv prices low so the common working everyday man can afford it !!!!! manny can raise the prices if he wanted to but seeing how we are in a ressesion manny thinks it would be shameful to do so !!!!! manny is the peoples champ chickenfeathers is the peoples chump !!!!!

Really? Is that how it went?

I find it funny when someone takes Mayweather's word as law. How do you know that Floyd is making that much, besides his yapping? We don't really know what either of them makes.

I wouldn't doubt Manny Pacquiao makes as much, if not more. With all his sponsorship deals and all.

Your right...we shouldn't take mayweather for his word..

another repost for the *******s...

because Mayweather is not signed to any of these Promoters so he doesn't have a LEECH taking a chunk of his money like Pacquiao does

[FeFist]

Less money through the gates and PPV which in turn will reduce the amount of money they get through sponsors.

Then there's the fact that Top rank and Golden boy take a percentage of his purse.

On thing that we have to consider is that MANNY is happy, why? THe Dollar to Philippine Peso conversion is enourmous!

The current conversion as we "speak" is:

1.00 USD = 43.5700 PHP

That meant that Pacquiao's money is HUGE in the Philippines. He is relatively "richer" there than Mayweather in Vegas. Thus even if Arum is screwing Pacquiao (And taxes), life is cheaper also in the Philippines.

Manny got 40K into the stadium for the Margo fight. The 40K paid about $50 on average.

Floyd got 15K in the arena for the Mosley fight. The 15K paid about $500 on average.

Yeah buddy, it's called inflation. It's not like a peso in the Philippines equals a dollar in America.

Let's use an example.
I'm sure that you guys have McDonald's in the Phillipines. A double cheeserburger at McDonald's in the US costs $1 USD. How much does a double cheeseburger in the Philippines cost? 1 PHP? No it doesn't. Try again.

[brick wall]

you guys are just looking at pac's purse declared to the state commission. he also gets revenue for the rights to his fights in the Philippines which is in million US$. plus pac's promotional company has also shares in the profits.
and isn't it that goldenboy sued arum and top rank for allegedly understating the profits and pac's purses in his previous fights thereby reducing goldenboy's share. arum hates gbp so much he would do every sneaky move to reduce their share. i wouldn't be surprised if arum transferred some of pac's purse and profits to pac's company to spurn gbp.
