Marquez: Should he get AT LEAST 50/50 for a 5th Pacquaio fight?

[richardt]

All JMM has to do is say is here is what I want, if you won't provide it, take a walk. The power is NOT Arum and Pac's hands!! JMM has control! If Pac wants the opportunity for "revenge" and Arum won't budge, Pac should drop Arum like a hot Potato and make a deal directly with JMM. By the time Arum gets around to suing Pac, he will be dead from old age. But JMM should not give in to Arum. This is about principle. JMM is calling the shots now. JMM should make them squirm. The guy that got the KO win is in the drivers seat, period.

No PAC still brings most of the money doesn't matter if he got knock out there still a lot more people who would pay to see PAC fight no matter who ..do you know what PAC had to do to make that kind of money and to be where he had to be ..PAC has the money and resume and knocking out a person once (great punch tho) doesn't put you on 50/50 grounds ...does he deserve more then what he got paid the first time of course but 50/50 no.......oh and trippy don't talk about pro PAC fan agenda because your whole polls sounds straight bias

You know why Pacquiao sold 400,000 more PPV's then he did for the Bradley fight last time out? Because Marquez was in the opposite corner, same thing for the 5th fight, Marquez turns a Pacquiao fight into a mega fight. If he fights anyone else it will do far less.

The Pacquiao-Bradley fight did 700,000 ppvs now Pacquiao has been KTFO he will sell even less. Pacquiao vs anyone other than JMM or Mayweather is going to do well under a million. Even at 50/50 it's the biggest payday available to Pacquiao, he doesn't have the strongest hand at the table anymore.

thats not true at all .. if the money being splited is similar to the past, pac would make more money fighting bradley (or anyone else) than jmm with the 50/50 split and theres a good margin too..

pac and bradley got paid 26 mil in which bradley got roughly 15% of that ..

pac and jmm 4 made 31 mil in which jmm made only 5....if jmm gets half of that, he'd be more than tripiling his biggest payday to date and pac would get a few mills less than his usual pay...

even at 60/40 in pac's favor, jmm would still make 250% more than his biggest payday to date..

It doesn't matter what we think, there is now way in hell I would take less than 50% from a guy that I just knocked out and outboxed 4 times.

85% of 700,000 is around the same (595,000) as 50% of 1,100,000 (550,000). A JMM-Pac fight will be much bigger (more than 1.1 mil) than any other fight (a Bradley rematch would do less than 700,000) so 50% of a JMM PPV would make more than 85% of a Bradley PPV.

No. Marquez is still nowhere near the draw Pacquiao is.

Dude, come on man. That was the biggest KO highlight this year and maybe last year too.. and in a very big fight. JMM GOT noticed.

thats coz you dont have any clue in how the bussiness side of boxing works ..im not claiming know it but its common knowledge whoever is the bigger draw gets the bigger piece of the pie.. there's no proof jmm is anywhere near the draw pac is.. hell , i doubt his fight with fedchenko" even made 300k ppv sales ..

youll only want more if u think there is a risk in losing

but if u think it will be an easy job to Knock the guy out again? why not?

if id earn easy millions again to fight the guy i already figured out? vs fighting a different risk guy for less?

youd be dumb enough to refuse 60-40 deal from pac

Not true the Champion usually gets the bigger piece 75/25 split.

from a boxing sense, yes, jmm gets 50/50.
from a business sense, no, pac still the headliner.

even after KO'ing pac, jmm's return has been greeted with lukewarm enthusiasm... not as much frenzy as i expected.

whats fair, IMO:
50/50 guaranteed purse split, pac takes lion's share of PPV.
i dont see it happening since jmm has NEVER seen the amount of money pac gets, so its hard to believe he would actually get 50%.
