What right does Floyd have to ask for a bigger purse?

[KnockUTheFukOut]

because nobody would care about Pacquiao if they wasn't brainwashed into believing that he could beat Mayweather for the last 2-3 years

[Reloaded]

I think revenue

Then you cant have that , because they both have very different sponsors and business dealings , it would be a nightmare to figure out , best just give them a set 50/50 fight purse and what they do with their own business is theirs .

Floyd deserves more money because he earns more money!

stfu............

Who said Floyd asked for a bigger purse?

1. Floyd's purse has nothing to do with Arum, Top Rank, or Poochiao. GPB is paying Floyd his guarantee purse and I will tell you it's a lot more than what Arum is giving Poochiao. Floyd's purse has nothing to do with them because they're not paying him his guarantee.

2. Floyd is not asking for a bigger purse. He's asking for a bigger cut of the other revenue. Arum is the one making it a big deal because he would lose millions if Floyd got a bigger cut than Pac. It would mean more money for Floyd and less money that Arum can take away from Pac.

You better believe Floyd is also co-promoting this fight with Arum. So that means he's going to get paid as a fighter and promoter. He's still getting checks for the Hatton and DLH fights because he was a fighter and promoter for the fight.

Pac drew more than him in their last fights- and people took ortiz more seriously than marquez.

50/50 would be the fairest thing, because they both make this fight.

This has nothing to do with Floyd wanting a bigger slice, or who is the bigger draw.

Floyd demand was meant for one thing and one thing only, to kill the fight and it has done.

Floyd averages $40 million a fight, Arum gives Pacquiao around $20 million a fight.

Who told you that????

Jeez....I never have really got into it with Pacfans, tend to try to stay out of it....but for the last couple of days it amazes me that people can't see that their is a guarentee purse(fight/ppv sales) and a total revenue(promotions, sponsors, etc)......again please read...this is from Pacquiao

To all of my fans," Pacquiao announced, "Mayweather just needs to agree to and accept a 50-percent split, and if he does then the fight will go through. He's the one who needs to agree.

"He's the one who has to say yes. The reason is because he talks to a lot of people. He has a lot of representatives. If he takes the fight, he can make $50-$60 million. That's how much he can make."


"I don't have problems getting a guarantee because I have a promoter who will give me my guaranteed purse. If he gets a guarantee, then we are going to share the revenue on a 50-50 basis."

Can someone please tell me how Pacquiao has a right to what Mayweather can earn on the side, through his Mayweather Promotions? Sorry, Manny is wrong this is something he should be asking Arum, no way should he expect Floyd to agree to this garbage sorry.....not one person here would give up money they have created on their own to someone else.

Who told you that????

Floyd received his highest guarentee fight purse(key word "Purse") after all was said and done, he took home $40 mil....I'm sure Mayweather Productions Co. may have somethign to do with that.....no way does Manny deserve 50% of that...its like Floyd asking Arum for 50% of his take from the fight
