pacquiao only worth $35 mill vs floyd

[The Big Dunn]

Pac accepts $5 million and the fight will still not happen.
Floyd has spoken. Pac has to avenge his loses first and
join TMT.

Floyd is fighting Khan next.

Only a pac fan would think he'd accept $5 mil after turning down $40 mil

[Sugar Adam Ali]

Manny still has alot of leverage,,, for the simple fact that floyd is fresh out of A-level big names, he already fought oscar, jmm, cotto, shane, canelo,, there is no one left but manny that can bring a huge blockbuster

Sure floyd can still fight khan, alexander, garcia, broner, maidana, lucas over the next few years but none of those fights will generate more than 1.2 mil tops, and most of them will do 800k-1 mil range, not bad but not enough to live up to floyd's massive guarantee of 32 mil per fight

Manny is the only dude that can give floyd a fight that will generate at least 1.5 mil buys and realistically manny-floyd would break ppv records still so if im manny im not going to make short money,,

60/40 would be ideal, but i think it will be 65/35,, no way does manny due it for a flat fee

and manny's stock will only rise if he beats bradley in a rematch, and if somehow he stops bradley, then manny hypetrain will be back in business and he could ask for even more money,,,

honestly who is floyd going to fight that brings half the money a manny fight would,,, there is no one that does half the amount of buys that manny brings,,

there is a huge difference between 1.2 mil buys and 2.5 mil buys

Pacquiao can't hit a homerun every pay for view and Floyd can't either. So much depends on the opponent. Pacquiao's fight with Marquez made almost twice as much money as Floyd's fight with Guerrrero.

Floyd's ppv fight with Canelo actually quadrupled Pacquiao's last outing.

You can cut things anyway you want, Mayweather is a bigger star than Pacquiao. At this point in the game something like an 80:20 split would be a reasonable first offer.

Very shiet that prevents this fight from happening. What do you gain by Floyd earning 80M to Pac's 20M? Can someone enlighten me?

[TonitosWay]

Pac was saying 60-40 and this was before getting knocked out. Sorry, but your stock doesn't go up AFTER getting KO'ed. I have no idea what is an objectionably fair split of the money, but unless he gets some impressive wins this isn't 2009-2010 where both Pac and Mayweather would have been the event. Nowadays to most this event has simply become another "Can anyone actually beat Mayweather" event. Sure Pac probably has the very best chance of doing that, but him getting KO'ed has taken away most of the allure that he is anything but just another challenger.

He said 45/55 & you can lie to yourself about that last part all you want.

One's an American superstar & the other is a international superstar/inspiration.

At this point 60/40 including ppv rights.

Dude, you should get tired of your idol's excuses. You damn well know it's never been about anything other than Floyd's lacking balls in fighting a so-called easy fight. For four years it's been about the testing issue. Now that's gone, it seems, Floyd's self-appointed negotiators and relentless protectors in these forums are now switching to something else, split issues, Pac should leave Arum, Pac has to fight this and that fighter first... Come on, wake up.

You guys are better off promoting Khan. Forget about Pacman.

pretending and lying about manny turning down the fight in 09 and the $40 mil no ppv offer shows what type of poster/fan you are.

The buying public has shown through their purchasing that they hold manny accountable for his unwillingness to fight floyd.

Its time postrs like you do he same.

[TonitosWay]

And what really kills me is y'all act like y'all forgot that Matthysse-Garcia was always the main event that PPV; seeing Floyd fight again was a plus (Only a fool believed Canelo was going to win).

I refuse to pay for a one sided clinic with a ****ty undercard & judging by Pacquiao-Rios numbers, most agree with me.

With a stacked undercard and Mexico's biggest star on cinco de mayo and to top it off the amount of promotion that went into it. It's pretty hard for that fight to flop.

LOL. Your only ammunition is to keep replaying what happened
hundred years ago. It's as if the world already ended and Floyd
is a child who can never be convinced of anything without giving
him a new toy. Man, come on. People are really not that ******.

Forget about Pacman. I'm curious about how Khan vs May will go.
Let's move on.
