    Did anyone ever get a bigger slice of the pie when fighting Delahoya?

    Any of his opponents ever get a bigger slice than him?

    Was tito the only one to get a similar share of the money as delahoya?

          Some fights fell through because of that.

          The Mayweather rematch fell through because Oscar was offering Floyd under 50-50[I think], and Floyd didn't want to accept cause he had beaten DLH already and thought he deserved more. And a Winky fight fell through because Winky didn't want to accept a guaranteed $6Mill+PPV incentives.

          But DLH was the cash cow for all of his fights, so fighters had no choice but to bend down to him. Remember this guy came in with a decorated Olympic background, heartbreaking story of his mother, and was already popular with the women. So he was always like the A-Side of his fights.

            Yes that might have been the case for the first fight.

              I did hear about the winky deal a few days back, i believe it was decent money what was offered to winky.

              I heard also that pacman took 35 and mayweather received 40 but I am not positive with those numbers.

              I wonder how much quartey took, vargas, and mosley on both fights..

                Trinidad and Mosely also wanted bigger shares and they didn't fight Delahoya again (Mosley for a third time).

                  The mayweather split was 70-30. Pacquaio made 35 percent. I remember this from their negotiation in 2008 when de la hoya said that he offered him five percent more than he gave mayweather to fight him a year prior to that.
