Why did Manni only make $6 million for the Mosley fight?

[RespekonMyName]

If this is true, and it looks like it has been confirmed by the Review Journal, then they lied through their teeth on fight camp 360.

From Dan Rafael's Twitter during fight week :

Pacquiao's official purse is $6 million on the Nevada contract but he is guaranteed $20 million from by Top Rank because of PPV.

Mosley's official purse on the Nevada contract is $3.950 million, although he is guaranteed $5 million

Not including the PPV.

Pacquiao's purse will be $6 million and Mosley's $3.95 million, according to the Nevada Athletic Commission. That does not count both fighters' cut of the pay-per-view revenue. ... Pacquiao remains a heavy betting favorite.

Well, let's say Pacquiao earned a total of $20million dollars for that fight.

Let's subtract the promoter, managerial, coach/corner, etc. fees.

$20 million minus 27% from Arum = approximately $14 million.

Out of those !4mill, you subtract 10% for Roach, and I honestly don't know how much for the rest of the corner+Gacal+Koncz, but let's say 10% more with all of those added up.

That's 20% from Roach, corner, Gacal, and Koncz.

So $14million minus 20% = $11 Million.

So $11Million is what Pacquiao would have made if he would have earned $20mill from that fight.

And let's say his total purse was $26mill, then subtract 47% from that and he makes around $13Million[47%(27% Arum, 10% Roach, at least 10% everyone else] of 26 million = 12.2Mill].

And this total is excluding the percentage GPB has over Pacquiao's purse.

that still super low considering how well known he is.

Do you ever wonder why he signed up again with TR instead of honoring his commitment with GBP?

It's sad that out of $26million hard earned cash putting your life on the line, you give up nearly $15million from there. And you're the one who's fighting. Pacquiao has the star power to be his own boss and not give up so much of his purse. But he chooses not to, some may call it loyalty, others may call it ******ity.

[PACnPBFsuck]

Is that because the PPV was a failure?

As you see, Showtime never released the numbers, and the Manni-Mosley 24/7 was the lowest rated show on TV.

I hope the air conditioner in your house is broken.

Don't know, but I think it was Gary Shaw that said Top Rank has the most expensive contract.


Ever wonder why Pacquiao didn't just start promoting himself, like Floyd did when he left Top Rank?

6 million????? mr congressman no good
