Lets make something real clear...PPV #'s

[Scipio2009]

The CBS boss was the one who initiated the talks,
not the other way around. Keep on trying.

Why would the CBS boss even bother to talk to HBO if they don't have any stake in Pacquiao to begin with? Since Arum is eating the losses on his own, lol. think for a moment.

Actually Arum was the one being contacted by the networks. Arum didn't contact them which shows you Arum isn't doing much leg work cause he dont really want it.

"I didn't manage anything [between HBO and Showtime]. All I said was that I had been contacted, the two networks have spoken and agreed 100% of how they would do jointly this fight. It was a legal situation. Floyd couldn't fight on HBO even if he wanted to because he's under contract with Showtime. And Manny is in a similar way through us," Arum told The Daily Telegraph from his Top Rank Inc. office here in Las Vegas.

Showtime has reported they have lost over 16 million dollars on May's last two fights due to declining PPV sales.....

Where exactly do you see the cash how status??where exactly do you see justification for May to have a MUCH bigger cut for a Pac showdown....

tell me why 40-60 split is UNFAIR to May??? (Only due to May being the undefeated fighter otherwise it would be 50/50 IMO)

Pac already walked away from 50/50. From the sounds of it, 65-35 was on the table recently and he passed on it.

@BoxingIsMyLife2 @wangpocum Wrong. Offered $40M minimum with 35% of the upside. Bob passed.

If you compare like for like the numbers are pretty close.

Pac v Bradley a rematch after a controversial first fight against a well known fighter that doesn't have a large following with the fight in the US.

Floyd v Maidana a rematch after a controversial first fight against a well known fighter that doesn't have a large following with the fight in the US.

Both did comparable numbers.

So there isn't a massive difference in ppv nor should there be in the split 55-45 is fair. That's 22.2% more for Floyd.

So basically if we discard Manny's low numbers in recent years as well as Floyd's exceptionally high numbers, see they're about even.

Whatever you say sockpuppet. I just find it to be a rather bizarre train of thought. Lets just ignore one sides exceedingly high number and discard the other's surprisingly low numbers and declare them about even. Just illogical and silly.

His most recent fight on the U.S. aganst a known opponent was Bradley. Overseas fights do less ppv and Algeria or whatever his name is still lived with his parents. Floyd doesn't have a fight on similar circumstances to compare to.

Bradley 2 and Maidana 2 are the closest recent comparison with the least variables.
