Brick Wall explains boxing purses in wikianswers:

What determines a boxing purse?

It all depends on the contract if their is one. For the big fights, it's a mixture of PPV/Ticket sales and a guaranteed fee that is usually paid out by the venue and promotions once the fight is over. If the fighters aren't guaranteed a certain split in pay, the fighter who wins usually gets a larger percentage of pay. People like Don king promote the fights and based on past sales and revenue from the other fights make a determination on the amount that either will be under contract or will go to the winner and loser.

Ex: main event
1) Attendance revenue = 30 million
2) Promoters and sponsers = 35 million
3) PPV or HBO = 35 million
-------------------------------------
Grand total = 100 million

SPLIT:
Boxer One: 31 million
Boxer Two: 25 million ( underdog)

or
Winner: 30 million
Loser: 20 million

Ref= 1 million
Commentators= 7 million
Don King = 15 million
etc...

-- Everyone gets paid based off of this number. I bet PPV does an average to come up with a lowest and highest number of viewers and makes a determination on that as to owhat they are willing to pay out for the right to show the fight exclusively on cable.

pac already agreed to the test, brah. what are you talking about?

Oh, riiiiight. That's why he does it for his fights! Cool. I forgot that he's doing it now. Thanks BRAH!

They'll do anything to defend their hero. They've been accusing a guy for three years now and they haven't provided any shred of proof to support their accusation. Not to mention the guy they're accusing of has already agreed to take the test.

All because of their fanatical support for one person, who is not exactly perfect himself. You'd wonder how you can trust your kids with these kinds of people.

Oh, riiiiight. That's why he does it for his fights! Cool. I forgot that he's doing it now. Thanks BRAH!

No BIB Cgarcia said it best when describing Pac fans. I put it in bold for you.

[maguirre]

This is the exact thing i was thinking when i was debating, if that what you want to call it, with Pac fans

Pac has agreed to take the test. Pac is also amenable to 50/50. What is there to defend Pac for at this point?

[badass316]

LOL!

Ariza could have put 120 million and Floyd stans will think its gin.

[boliodogs]

Christ did Mayweather really make 85? That is ridiculous if it is a true figure.

When I read it on boxing scene top headlines I will believe it. As of now it sound like made up BS to try to make trouble between Arum and Pacquiao.

If it make you feel better to think that then ok.

Tell me again why did team Pac turn down VADA for this fight?

Let me guess, its because there is no proof so there is no need to prove anything. If Pac and Ariza say hes clean then thats good enough for a Pac fan..right

where were you when ward and hopkins avoided test? hopkins had fought three fights since the pascal incident. why aren't you concerned that these two fighters haven't taken the necessary test you're demanding of with another fighter?

nowadays the ones who are demanding test are the ones getting tested positive. that's why floyd and usada must be doing something behind the scenes.

floyd needs to be tested all year round and by vada, don't you agree? man, these guys demanding test are so bold in demanding it it makes one think someone is probably providing them covers. they knew they will get tested positive.

there's definitely something wrong with the picture.

For ducking the fight all the way , he was offered 50/50 and a test and DUCKED it and has been saying NO deal to every offer ever since !

You ever seen Pac come out put pressure on Floyd for the fight ?
