He gets a piece of the pie through his promotional pact with Pacquiao. If Manny makes say $20 mil for fighting Algieri, Arum gets 30% of that (plus other revenues). If Pac gets $100 mil for fighting Floyd, Arum gets 30% of that (plus other revenues).
So if by your estimation Arum is a 'greedy pig', why would he want $6 million+ instead of $30 million+? You're not making any damn sense.
And him fronting the money to build a stadium increases his take many times over. Instead of relying on a third party like the MGM, he'd be on his own and keep ALL the revenue as opposed to settling for a site fee and possible small % of the gate. With 30K fans (as opposed to the 18K at the MGM), they were looking at a possible $40-45 million gate, Not a bad return on a $15 mil investment for a temporary stadium.
But what does a 'greedy pig' want with all that money?Comment

Koncz even brought representatives from Falcon Hawk Entertainment (headed by Michael Jackson's father Joe and other music producers) who were to provide the $100 million for the guarantees. You can see Koncz, Jackson, and Donny Rucker (music producer) in this photo with Floyd at his gym:
So Pacquiao the free agent went completely out of his way to personally make the fight happen, even found financial backers for the fighter purses... and Floyd responded by signing on to fight Pac's leftovers in Cotto.
True story.Comment

And if you was a life long promoter of pacquiao wouldnt you want a "piece of the pie". Why shouldn't he? What cuz floydie has problems with him? If he really had problems with arum, he would have they BOTH would have not tried on 3 occassions to make the pac fight. Common sense, something you lack.Comment

If you'll recall, when Pac was a free agent, he sent his right hand man to fly from the Philippines to Vegas to personally, face-to-face, meet with Floyd to get the fight done. Floyd made a bull**** offer he knew they would turn down ($40 mil w/ no revenue sharing on a fight that would've generated upwards of $200 million). Manny countered with an offer of $50 mil guaranteed for both fighters plus a 55-45 split on the revenue, with the winner getting the lion's share.
Koncz even brought representatives from Falcon Hawk Entertainment (headed by Michael Jackson's father Joe and other music producers) who were to provide the $100 million for the guarantees. You can see Koncz, Jackson, and Donny Rucker (music producer) in this photo with Floyd at his gym:
