Comments Thread For: Arum Offers Floyd $45 Mill, Explains Pacquiao's Earnings

[DeeJay23]

Oh yeah

50/50 would be a even deal if bob wasnt stealing from pac..instead of pac making 22 mill he only gets 6 as the contract states... so how can u ask for the same amount floyd is making when u dont make what floyd is making? again, pac is supposed to get 22 mill but he doesnt so 40 mill plus 30 or 40% of the ppv is actually a good deal cuz hes in with a guy who makes way more than him...it would kinda be like (if they fought) cotto vs floyd with cotto asking for 50/50 knowing floyd makes way more than him.....

so again the reason this fight will never happen is who class? Bob arum..... right on...lol...and this is why I will never buy another top rank promoted fight until he has nothin more to do with boxing!

I suppose this is where Mayweather says he never received an offer.

last time floyd ducked manny was to go on vacation , this time he's gonna spend it in jail , 50/50 floyd!!!!!! you punk!!!

[mikemurni]

how do u go from 22million add 5million and end up with 30million, also tht fight did over $75million on ppv so why does he only get 5million

Because 22M is already the guarantee.. The higher the guarantee the less PPV income is added to the total purse..

People who thinks that its PPV share + guarantee, dont know what they are talkin about because it's not.. Its the PPV shares on top of the guarantee, which why you call it an upside..

[mikemurni]

If you wasn't a Pac Stan you would have done research and would have known that Floyd made over 61mil in 2010 just from fighting Mosley. He was the 3rd highest paid athlete behind Tiger and Mickelson. So ask yourself why would he take 45mil.

lol.. this is funny..Where did you get that from.. Floyd..lol

[Ray*]

Arum 22M + 5M = 27 not 30M, We arent all *******s..

Mayweather jr

I SAY THIS: FLOYD MAYWEATHER JR HAS NEVER LOST A FIGHT...UNDEFEATED AS A BOXER 4 OVER 16YS... HE SHOULD HAVE THE PRIVILEDGE TO CALL ALL THE SHOTS... "NUF~SED!!!

[lfc19titles]

at least this puts to rest the silly pac only made 6m comments

as I said it was announced on tv his guarantee was 22m so he got at least, he earned around 27m from the looks of it which is really good

also lol at the idiots saying floyd got 61m vs mosley, the made around half or even less than half of that. his guarantee was like 20-22m in that fight as well, at most 25m he wouldnt have made like 35m from ppv rev. he made around 30m in total at the most

remember there is hbo, golden boy and floyds manager to pay

[LADIV]

who pays floyd his $25mil ?

Oh that's right he pays it to himself. Meaning he only made $20 mil from that fight.

According to forbes, floyd wasn't in the top 50 earners in sports last year. He made less than $20 mil in the year.

he only fought 1 time last year... Do the math

that is what your link says, are you a ****ing ******? can't you ****ing read? it says 61m for both marquez and mosley names there

god *****s are thick

ignoring pacs ppv share and his guarantee, remember floyds under nevada is less as well as the rest is paid after, both get paid near 30m per fights, get over it

all your boy has to do is accept 50-50
