Based on the evidence I provided 55/45 in favour of Floyd is more than reasonable, no?Comment

end of the day the numbers show one thing clearly-the most PPV's are sold in fights where Floyd is thought to have the best chance to lose, especially if the opponent has a rabid, nationalistic fanbase.
Manny has strong support so give him 30% (-5% refusal fee) of the ppv and a $20-25 mil guarantee. Manny makes a minimum of $55-60 mil, double his biggest ever payday. Assuming manny KO's algieiri the fight will be almost as big as it was.
Then just fight.

65/35 if you use all the numbers. 60/40 if you use your gerrymandered ones.

Good grief!
All of this is irrelevant anyways....
The bigwigs at Showtime want the fight, don't delude yourself, when they say jump, Floyd says ''how high''? They pay him and if they want him to fight Manny he'll fight Manny.Comment

And when HBO tells Manny-we gave you that signing bonus for a reason-stop refusing and start signing-he will.Comment

16k? That's better than expected considering the MGM Boxing set up can only hold around 15,000. They extend more seats if the tickets do well. So it was obviously sold outComment
