    True. That's a good point.

    But still, he's still unknown to the casual audience.

Pac has more fans than Bradley so we can assume he is responsible for has 2/3 of the final 1/3 of the revenue, so he is really responsible for about 20 percent of the total purse.

          It is safe to say that Manny has little to no no drawing power. If this fight does 1 million ppv buys than it means Pac was only responsible for 220,000 people!?! And he wants 50/50 with Floyd?

              Compare that to Mayweather with 36 tickets unsold...

              Less then 9 million gate compared to Mayweather's 12 million.

              50/50!!
              Mayweather wasn't fighting Bradley
