    Yes he will. And rather easily IMO. Not because its a bad fight or Bradley stinks, but because Manny is much better than him.

      At present expect Pac vs Bradley to do 1.1-1.3 for sure. Pac can do it without any super stars to back him up. Get back here after the Bradley fight.

      We'll talk again.

        You're behind in the times, my friend. Merchant asked about the Pacquiao money split after the Cotto fight and Floyd said to take the test again.

          Imagine if this type of fight was on Fox like the UFC on Fox? Still, pretty impressive numbers for a fight where the majority of people knew how it would end.

              Manny will accept random OST only if he gets a 50/50 split. When Manny agrees to take random OST for the 60/40 split the numbers say he deserves, then they can make a deal.

                Your Delusional as your delusional Boxer who would think it was him who only pulled that number when in fact it's a joint effort with 3 other stars.

                Canelo (the chosen one of Mexico) pulled in at least 500k on a mexican Holiday

                Cotto pulled in 500k he is the people's champ of puerto rico

                Mosely anothe 200k he has after all a loyal fan base

                That's leaves Floyd 300k(min)-700k(max) ppv buys

                Knowing Floyd, he will use this as another road block to his negotiations with PAc. When in fact really a joint effort between stars in a mexican Holiday.

                But of course we all know this is another road block to say he gets more..

                Pac vs Bradley

                Tim Bradley, who is a very good fighter but doesnt really have any fanbase.

                Not to mention a popular attraction like Alvarez vs Mosley will not be on the undercard either, at least as far as I know.

                I know you nutjobs like to make believe its not true, but the quality and draw of the opponent effects the amount of PPVs when a 'name' guy like Pac or Mayweather fights.

                That said, Pac vs Bradley will make around 1.1ppv-1.3 ppv easily.

                But that's all Pac compared to Floyd who need a ride to get to 1.5ppv.


                What I'm driving at is Pac is even the bigger draw now but is willing to give a 50/50 split with Floyd. PAc can command a million up draws with a dance partner that doesn't even have a loyal fan base. He can run the show by himself and gets a million ppv viewers guaranteed.

                Their fight is a 50/50 split. More asking from Floyd is another road block coming...

                And that my friend is the truth.

                  Manny #5 all time ppv seller. Great accomplishment. Of course his fans can't celebrate because flopyd is hgiher on the list. Damn shame.

                    Pac can't sell 1.5 unless he fights floyd. FLoyd can do that and more with ODH, Cotto, Canelo and MAYBE Khan. Manny desrves about 30-40%

                    Manny needs to stop trying to get 50/50 in excxhange for taking OST. He makes himself look guilty.

                      No problem with that since Manny fights the best, outside of who blatantly ducks him with the worse excuses in human history.

                      Now that Floyd is making so much money, and his fans are having wet dreams about it, does that mean Floyd can finally pay his hospital bills after he fights Manny? I've yet to have one Floyd fan answer this simple question. Damn shame.
