Floyd will be earning more. His guarantee will be more. And Pacquaio has already publicly stated he is fine with Floyd getting a bigger guarantee in the infamous "He can have more than me" interview which people jumped on.
The difference in PPV sales is negligible considering how much each stands to make.

you're no better...you're worse actually. look at you, you're the only floyd fan trying to justify floyd's ridiculous purse demand on a constant basis.

@dirk
Agreed. Unless manny has real tax problems, which I don't think he does.

When you take all the totals Floyd is approx $300,000 more ahead in revenue. Keep in mind he pulls ahead because of the 2.4 mil win Oscar. Oscar in that fight was the major draw by far, which is why he dictated every term of the fight. Floyd had never had a 1M+ PPV to this point.
This belief that Floyds #'s are so much better than Manny's is inaccurate. The only way this fight gets made is 50/50, bottom line. Those #'s are fact not opinion, and with that small of a margin it needs to be 50/50 and anything less I don't blame Manny for not accepting it. For the #' s to be that close for a non born American says alot, not to mention having more 1M+ PPV's.
I could understand 60/40 with 60 going to the winner, anything less is Floyd putting up road blocks for this fight. Just give the fans the fight they wanna see and make it 50/50.

**** that 45/45 10% to the winner BS that is not a realistic offer. This fight if it goes to the cards will be based on a person's opinion not really who might have won. Wouldn't be right for a either fighter to get robbed and get less money cause of that robbery. We all have seen how messed up fights been scored lately.

Originally posted by ONEBOXHere's the thing though it's not like PAC is saying Floyd gets nothing so when u keep on saying Floyd worked hard to get the advantages yet PAC doesn't? It's a 50-50 split, both guys wouldn't be making these kinda number without the other. It's not like PAC is asking for more than Floyd, PAC is asking for an even split just like how Floyd wanted a fair fight so PAC must undergo ost.
Pac isn't asking for more than floyd but he IS asking for more than the numbers say he is worth when it comes to this fight.
