    Thanks for the clarification. I haven't bought it as a definitive offer, but it does work as a marker. Anyway. . .

    A split taking into account the numbers from their respective fights is fair enough. But it's only reasonable to legislate for the fact that Floyd wont gross anywhere near the amount fighting anyone else, because who's left right?

    What I take issue with is that if this fight generates a purse of $200 million as an example (and who knows what it could be, taking into account the Asian market with Shiming on the undercard - Which Uncle Bob brings to the table not Floyd). With those hypothetical numbers would you consider it fair that Manny only takes $30 million which equates to 15%?

      Yall need to be careful about yer wits and don't get carried about with his LIES and deceit !!!!!

      His DECEIT is DEADLY, like an Anaconda in the bush waiting for you to come by and then he snatches you by the leg and makes his WRAPS (Arum's Fault) around you, he begins to tighten up (Pac is begging hahahahahaha) and to swallow all that Jr said is like the Anaconda swallowing YOU UP (They ducking me for years hahahahahahahaha)

      hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm you smell that ?

      smells like a chicken running out the back door !!!!!!!

        No, it doesn't work as a marker. You have nothing to base that on. This fight generates maybe 300m in revenue, about 3m PPV buys and some overpriced seats. You've got half going to the PPV carriers. That leaves 150m for everyone else, including Showtime. Stop making up fairy tale #'s. Floyd would be guaranteed maybe $60-70m and that's that.

          We've ascertained that there is something to base a hypothetical number on, however shaky that may be.

          Let's work with your numbers though. That would leave $80 million to be divvied up by the parties concerned, which would leave Manny with what in your estimate?

          As you've not factored it in does that also mean that you think Bob's plan to charge the Chinese market $5 a pop, is part of the 'fairy tale numbers'?

            It's not a hypothetical number. It's a made up one. They can't guarantee $200m to the fighters and that's why Arum said he is STILL waiting on a proposal. Move on.

              No worries.

              I get the pattern. I ask valid questions as part of a discussion and you don't feel comfortable addressing them because it might undermine your position. I won't force the issue.

              Have a good day.

                I noticed one too. Hang on to the $200m offer as a benchmark no matter how delusional it sounds. My day's already going good but thanks.

                    I already responded to that so keep shaking your head like a bobble head doll.
