Before they even knew Floyd was going to be stubborn and unreasonable on this issue, they didn't want any part of this fight. TR wasn't returning phonecalls to even discuss terms, and Bob had no idea who to call??? They wanted to fight when Floyd was in jail or build a stadium. Seriously, Floyd is being a douche, he should just offer 50%of everything and fight, but let's not pretend Manny and Bob weren't running away from this faster than Usain Bolt in the 100.

Originally posted by Javii86 View PostSadly for Pacquiao, it's nowhere near the same type of deal. Bob Arum recently stated that he gave $5 Million to Pacquiao off the PPV revenue from the Marquez Pacquiao III fight. A fight that Bob Arum claimed made $75 million in PPV revenue. Here's an excerpt from the New York Times article
"Those streams include foreign sales for a fight broadcast in 168 territories; closed-circuit revenues (in 2,000 or so bars and restaurants nationwide, in theaters and in rooms at Las Vegas casinos); site revenue (ticket sales, merchandise); and sponsorships. Most boxers would see little, if any, of that money, whereas, Schaefer said: “All revenues here are Mayweather revenues. He gets part of everything.” "
Actually he said that he gave Pac 5 million directly after the fight to hold him over until the final PPV numbers were tallied. Pac's total guarantee was over 10 million and he ended up making around 20 million for the last JMM fight.
