    Maidana will earn $1.5 million but his purse is expected to be subsidized by pay-per-view upside and television money from his native Argentina which allows him to skirt some U.S. taxes.

    Do you know how much money the fight generated in Argentina, because that money has absolutely nothing to do with American(Domesticated) PPV sales.

    Need a example...

    Mayweather-Hatton PPV Gets 1Million More Buys

    The Floyd Mayweather Jr.-Ricky Hatton pay-per-view which took place in Las Vegas on December 8 has shattered UK pay-per-view buyrate numbers. According to The Telegraph, Sky Box Office estimates as many as 1.2 million buys and the number can increase to 1.4 million. The final number will not be known until January, but Sky says the final buyrate will be well over 1 million, cracking the 2002 record of 750,000 buys, set by Lennox Lewis vs. Mike Tyson.


    So to sit here and state that Maidana is only making 1.5 million total based of the US PPV butyrate, which is what your using, is a flat out lie!

    Just log off, because Im really considering blocking your ass for you limited reading comprehension...

      You don't know how much Maidana is making, which exactly was my point to the guy before you had to go all Johnny Tapia w/this situation, so to insulate he was somehow screwed financially without CREDITABLE evidence, once again is a flat out lie.

            his guarantee for a Floyd fight was ONLY $1.5mil and for a Floyd fight you're telling me he wasn't screwed?

                I reckon they want to keep him on undercards fighting bums and avoiding GGG until the time is right for canelo to move up then you can have canelo fighting quillin and possibly getting himself a middleweight title while STILL avoiding GGG ... and martinez for that matter (unless martinez (A) looks like crap v cotto and scraps to a wins or (B) cotto actually beats him) ... either way title for Canelo/Quillin without either of them having to get beaten up by GGG.

                  maidana is not getting any ppv upside that's for sure as the ppv did not turn out profitable. granted he got money for the tv rights in Argentina, still that isn't much for a fight of that magnitude considering that a guy like rios got 3 million fighting in macau.

                  it just didn't fit your agenda dude. you're a moron if you think schaefer proposing a bidding will be to the best interest of the fighters.

                    Dude your speculating, and it's not an agenda to state as much when neither you nor I have all the facts. Like I said if Maidana camp was really unhappy with their deal, that would have said as much. None of us are privy to the contracts, so to sit here and besmirch his Manager, his promoter, and Floyd is really uncalled for.

                    Like I said, you guys entitled to believe what you want, but to have two multi billion dollar conglomerates bidding on the right to showcase your skills, sounds like a good situation to be in if your a fighter, and can create it.
