Originally posted by Check_hooks View PostI've said it before and I'll say it again and the big homie Skip bayless called this **** on ESPN. The plan is like this for you dumbasses that don't know **** about boxing -
1) Pac purposely holds back against Marquez (trys not to knock him down or out)to give floyd a false sense of security.
2) Ariza give an interview on fighthype aka the only website floyd uses telling Ben to tell floyd to stop ducking and dodging.
3) Pac give a press conference in the Phillipines calling floyd out saying hes a lil b*tch.
4) All of those influence the media or in this case gay la hoya to all come out and say "Yo floyd, Pac is calling you out. Either you take the fight the world wants to see or your a lil b*tch with no legacy."
Now floyd has to agree to the fight cuz no one will buy another trash PPV (unless its against Pac) of his especially after ripping of the boxing public with one of the worst PPV's of all time.
Team Pac are not only einteins in the ring but outside as well :applause:

I'm sure the fight will break the 2.4 million mark but it's not going up to 3.
anything less than 2.5 and they'll both be making less then they do now. the economics are there and that's why it hasn't been made. Both sides are just passing the blame and stalling

I know ticket prices will be different so i'll give it 3 or 4 million. in Vegas they can charge a lot more because it's a smaller place.
whatever the case whatever the gate is, is chump change compared to the PPV.
lets say Mayweather fights someone for a 80-20 split. the PPV sells 1.4 at 60$. so Mayweather gets 72 million minus expenses.
if he figths Pac it will be a 50/50 or no fight. they'd have to sell at least 2.5 for Mayweather to make what he's getting now. so why bother with it? when both guys can fight easier fights and get paid.
don't forget the PPV record for boxing is 2.4 million. so the PPV would have to be record breaking for the fighters to make what they make now.

Mayweather and Bob Arum should listen to the boxing fans and make the fight happen. A 50/50 split of the money is fair or it could be 60/40 for the winner or 65/35 if you win by knockout to make it more interesting.

this fight won't be make at least for a few more years. Leonard v Hagler took a decade to make. neither guy is going to wreck a good thing. when Mayweather or Pacquiao start taking blows in PPV number then they'll fight each other.
as long as both can draw over a million in PPV buys, why fight each other?
Pac probably fights Marquez, Bradley, Rios and maybe even Gamboa before Arum lets him fight Floyd.
Mayweather is fine without Pacquiao. when he can make 80-20 splits with guys, he makes even more then he'd make with Pacquiao. Mayweather v Pacquiao would have to sell over 3 million to get him the money he's making now.
