Comments Thread For: Arum: "Pacquiao Will Never Face a Golden Boy Fighter!"

[rasdun]

so, it really bothers you much that Pac only gets 22.4 mil out of 32 mil while pac has no problem on it. lol...

I worked for a boxing promoter for 5 yrs - not Top Rank of Golden Boy, but a top 10 promoter. 30% is not unheard of. Plus the % only apply when a boxer is fighting on another promoter's card. For instance (although would never happen) if golden boy promoted a Pac v. May fight, and Pac's purse was 40 mil, then Arum gets 30% of that - which he's entitled too a generous %.
Otherwise, on all top rank cards, Arum has an agreement to pay Pac 20 mil plus % of PPVs, he has all other expenses for opponent, undercard, etc, and then he takes what's left over. If he promotes great, and it makes a lot, he can make many millions. if the fight does bad, he can make not that much. That's the way it's always been and will continue to be

Check 2:20.



Bob Arum, Freddie Roach and Manny Pacquiao are full of $H!t! What Roach said has me thinking even more that Pac is juicing.

dont worry they'll ignore this like the black plague, just like they ignored roach's comments on blood testing a week ago

don't like what ARUM is doing but dude what you just stated is classic hypocricy.... Pacfanc and Mayfans do share enough "ignore some article that doesn't suit their liking", stating the pacfans might be ignoring is article (prabably) but accept the fact like a grown-up that Floydfan do the same BS.

Hater will always exist but if you are a true boxing fan try to nuetralize biased opinions so people will take your argument seriously

The difference between Floyd and Pac fans is. Floyd fans want to see him fight whoever. Pac fans don't care who he fights as long as they are not a threat to Pac. Atleast that is how I see it. That's my opinion so people don't get all upset Pac peoples.

No he said the reason Pac will never fight a GB fighter is because they defamed him, and yet still their willing to do business with Mayweather, who also defamed him.

Like I said before, this is just an excuse for Arum to do exactly what he wants to do, and it has nothing to do with defamation.

instead of the needle as a excuse to duck and filed a lawsuit.now mayweather has charges.pac has been doing alot of talking and act like he wants to fight and take the test.but he also was quoted of saying that he and mayweather can fight but he's not dropping the lawsuit.that won't work ducquiao.
