Pre-Cotto fight, I felt that 50/50 was fair. Post-Cotto, 60/40 - 55/45 is most fair for a split. Floyd has already outsold in PPV buys AND gate grosses against Pacquiao with 4 of the 5 same opponents. Yes, Pacquiao sells more tickets but he sells them at much lower prices than Floyd. More customers are willing to purchase tickets to Floyd's fights despite high prices meaning that he is a bigger draw.Originally posted by Frank Ducketts View Post
This isn't rocket science.
More PPV buys + higher gate grosses + higher TV revenues = bigger draw.
The only statistic that Pacquiao has on his side is that he sells more tickets to his fights.
But yet the Pacstans can't handle facts, they only spout hearsay (Pacquiao is bigger WORLDWIDE, Canelo/Cotto/Mosley is the reason why the PPV did so well, etc.) but they can never back up their hearsay with articles, facts, and numbers. As I've written before, I'm not defending Floyd. Anybody who knows me on this board knows I don't even like Floyd. I'm just defending the proof that Floyd deserves the bigger split and is the bigger draw.Comment

Floyd self-appointed negotiators are all over the place. Total strangers want an undeserving part-time boxer gets the biggest slice of the pie. They keep insisting that the real mega star bow down to a mere 24/7 star. What a lucky guy Floyd is.
One thing is certain, though. JMM4 will surely happen now, the way I look at it.. So Pac would have two fights that would keep him occupied for the year. That would mean aside from getting a handsome amount from the Bradley fight, he'll get probably double that from another blockbuster hit, JMM4. I don't think he'll be like a penniless beggar and expect him to just bow down to a clown offering an insulting offer.
Think people, think.
Floyd I understand has one and a half year to decide whether to take on Pac or not. Let' see what happens.Comment

To me liking or hating a fighter is choice. I don't give a **** about that, no offense. I.have to know you personally to like you or hate you. I do care about the facts, and I'm glad that another poster can deal with the facts of the situation rather than emotion.Originally posted by WALTER WHITE View PostComment

Floyd should thank Canelo. Mexicans bought a lot of ppvs followed by Ricans and other Latinos. Most people actually pay to see Floyd lose his O. The minute that happens, only Floyd fanboys will follow him.Comment

Lol just weeks before Pacquiao vs Bradley, the whole first page of this forum is still talking about Mayweather vs Cotto. Pacquiao is that inferior. Therefore, just accept the 40 million.Comment

That's why shaefer expected 2million, GBP estimated Floyd should pull in 1m and Canelo Cotto, the undercard a cool million equals 2m..
GBP expecting 1m from Floyd to warrant the guarantee Floyd is getting, but if you do the math. Floyd pulled in only around 500-700k, that's disappointing coz GBP surely over paid Floyd.
GBP for sure got the bad end of the stick. The bottom of the barrel I must say. He has to pay 4 stars plus the undercard equals no earnings left for gbp.
While Floyd is running all the way to the bank..
Damn that's pretty disappionting for the promoters there giving Floyd so much cash when he is only pulling in 500-700 ppv..
Another highway robbery, this time it's schaefer and Dlh have to cringe giving him too much.
Feel sorry For DLH and Scahefer.Comment

You mean these facts...Originally posted by WALTER WHITE View Post
Once again, if u run the #'s, you'll see Pac has generated more! If anything Pac is being generous by demanding a 50/50 split or better yet 45/55 with the winner getting 55.

But his new demand is impossible to meet!
Highest Paid Athlete from FORBES:
In 2011: Pacquiao is No. 25..... Mayweather out from Top 50.
In 2010: Pacquiao is No. 24..... Mayweather out as he didn't have a fight.
