I'd actually like to see who in fact knows how much either Floyd or Pacquiao really make after a fight. It seems like a lot of people know their finances so well. There isn't a single person on this forum that can tell what either fighter had made total from fight to fight be it PPV %, Gate %, Guarantee money, etc. It's all hearsay unless you're either Manny or Floyd's accountant.
With that being said, even with Floyd making more than Manny in there fight, I don't understand not giving Pac any Gate / PPV %, yet he gave Cotto a small yet generous % which got Cotto close to $18 Mill when all was said and done (according to ESPN). Being Pacquiao's generated the most money on PPV next to Floyd, what fighter in Pac's position would accept a flat fee when he knows he would make more than double when all is said and done? Floyd's a clever guy.
