      Is it possible that Manny could possibly make that type of money in a future fight?

      When viewing this from a management standpoint. Assuming the 40 mil offer from Floyd was legit. Was it a better career move for Manny to continue his wars with Marquez where he makes the lions share but overall less money, Or take a smaller portion and possibly less than his true value to fight Floyd but for more money than he could make in any other fight?

      Also for reference does anyone know how many Fighters have broken 40 mil for a fight?
      It's not for fans to evaluate if the offer was solid because we're not the ones taking the risk and we're not the ones that suffer the literal pains of defeat. Like Tyson, Manny hasn't and probably won't figure out he's in the drivers seat. I find it odd that Floyd outsells Manny because Manny does exactly what's expected, that's what some fans want, blind and humble complicity, that's what they want. Pacquiao's mindless mob want a non-trash talking non-black guy to rally around, because after all, black people that assert themselves are to be shunned.

        Manny would be ******ed to take a flat fee and nothing on the back end. Horrible business move.
        yeah, better than the 40 mil will never see for the rest of his career

          yet pac was the only one refusing to make the fight happen

            You are clueless. Pac doesn't want Floyd. No wonder he fought 13 times in the last 6 years compare to Floyd cherry picked 4 fights. Pac put his.butt on the line 9 times more than Floyd. Yeah Pac was scared to lost his undefeated record to Floyd. No wonder Pac invented his own useless 2 months OST (not the real 24/365 in Olympics) when he was about to fight Floyd but not on his previous 40 fights. Smart ass man.

              2. Manny was ready to fight JMM in may 2012, when floyd said fight me, manny said he needs another month to heal his cut.

              it's about time you stopped with all your horse drek. When Mayweather made the $40 mill "offer", Pacquiao imediately turned it down and COUNTERED with a $50 mill offer to Mayweather. Mayweather turned it down.

              You have incurable Arumitis. It affects inside the head first, then it travels to the typing fingers.

              You guys are just too ****** for words, and maybe i'm not too bright myself for bothering to post here.

              As for your ****** nonsense about the cut, He was not ready to fight in early May. Arum made it very clear that the standard healing time for a 3 layer stitched cut to the bone was 6 months, and Pacquiao could not be ready until the end of May at earliest, or beginning of june. It was all on this site, probably before you learned to read.
              dude gtfoh with that **** arum said himself that he was open to a marquez fight on may 5th but not may 5th with mayweather

                  I just wanted to see the fight so I didn't care about who gets what BUT the offer that Floyd gave him was BS and I knew that would be the roadblock to not getting the fight on.

                  Floyd did not want to fight Manny. PERIOD!!!

                    But you do know the market value of Manny though. You know what has been the average amount Manny has been paid for his services. If manny has been worth an average of 20 mil and % of ppv for all his previous opponents that provides a basis for what many is worth.

                    The rules of supply and demand apply to boxing just like anything else. and essentially since Manny's fights already generate a number close to what mayweather's do but he is making less he is already allowing himself to be cheated out of money by Arum.
