Why do Pacquiao's opponents get paid more money than Floyd's opponents?

[Luilun]

All about greed, Floyd is all about me,he's selfish piece of shyt

[BOXEO _]

why are you comparing the total from the manny fight (including ppv revenue) with just the guarantee (without the ppv revenue) from the mayweather fight?

Alright smarty pants, how much in total did Cotto make against Floyd and how much in total did he make against Pac? I'll wait..

[GOD-FR33]

He's fair.........

Manny is a nice guy. It's as simple as that. He's a pretty fair guy also. I bet you CA can wear whatever gloves he wants come November. Why? Because Manny is a throwback fighter. He comes to get it, win, lose, or draw. Furthermore, when you grow up in poverty and come from nothing, a little goes a long way. He's worth $100million CASH right now. He could be worth about $300-$400million. Some people don't have to have ALL of the money. ALL of the girls. ALL of the attention. He lives a comfortable life that works for him. He resigned with Arum because he's guaranteed $20-$25million per fight plus live gate and PPV. Who else Is making that type of money per fight, besides Floyd? So, Manny isn't so ****** afterall. Besides, it is his rival whose career seems to be unraveling by the day. Sure, he makes more money than Manny, BUT who seems happier? We as Americans look at income differently than foreigners do. Look at Cotto also. A humble, respected father, husband, and fighter whose RICH but isn't breaking the bank. He's set for life. These guys are quiet but come fight night, they kick ass!

You put the number out there-do your own homework. Now, can you answer the question-why did you use total for one and gurantee for the other?

[Crazylegs77]

Sportsmanship. Both participants should have a fair share wiithin reason depending on the total pot.

I asked you a question, as did Kingjames. You put the number out there-do your own homework.

Hahahaha! Exactly! You and James know damn well, damn well that Cotto made a lot more against Pac than he did against Floyd, a lot more! Keep deflecting though...

During an inteview Floyd gave with Bob Costas, he claimed that Cotto recieved no ppv revenue.

im not trying to defend anyone bro, i just asked a question. i could've sworn cotto made 12 mill vs floyd but i could be wrong. either way in the end theres more money for pacs opponents because he's not making 30+ mill a fight.
