Comments Thread For: Arum Could See Mayweather-Pacquiao Split $300 Million

[Scipio2009]

Joining TMT and not working with Arum was a lie too, yes?

Once Pacquiao walked away from the $40m offer without even putting forward a counteroffer, it became clear to everyone that Pacquiao didn't want it.

If the fight isn't possible and people keep asking, what were you actually expecting

[GRUSTLER]

Damn! Manny so dumb he should have accepted that $40 mil flat offer from Mayweather.

Have to admit. Smart Manny didn't take the 40Mil in the long run.

[GRUSTLER]

for every one of you who said this, there were 30 *****s saying it was a 40m flat fee and he was lucky to get that much

don't ignore that fact

Dudes were saying this, can't front but there are and were things Manny's clan have denied saying. I think as men we owe it to ourselves to not act like b!tc#'s by manning up and being able to admit when we were wrong and made mistakes.

40m is fair doe

40m start of bidniss doe

The splitting it doe even doe its 60-40 doe... The 10% don't matter doe lol

Let's see, Floyd living in the US uses dollars as currency, Pacman lives in the Philippines, currency pesos. P40 x $80 mil? Lets see? That's a lot of Philippine money.

Pacquiao's already ($75m x P40) in the hole [hopefully Pacquiao paid at least some of that bill; otherwise he's really ****ed]

$80m, taking away the current tax bill, his promoter's cut, camp expenses, etc, is really more like $20m. you add in the hanger-ons, his contributions to his church, and his other "charity work" and he's looking at even less.

Say what you want about Floyd; he's had the foresight, or was neurotic enough, to not have any loan debt to deal with and he's put his affairs in the hands of knowledgeable enough people to settle whatever tax debt he carried over from working under Arum.

For all his excesses, everything that Floyd has is paid for, often in cash.

[brickcityboxing]

Good news for Floyd. He'll be broke after 6 years (from retirement) rather than after 3.

Hahaha how did PAC go broke while he was still fighting is the question !?

[GRUSTLER]

People kill me still talking about this 40mil offer. That was years ago. Different talks. Different circumstances. Different everything. The fight is made now and at one point it was a 50/50 split with a purse of 50mil each so the fact that one is getting 80mil but the other is getting 120mil and these are just purses is crazy. And Floyd money is record breaking so who cares about talks years ago lol. Floyd whole goal was to come out way on top and that goal was accomplished but Manny is still getting his to..

True but not too long ago people were saying that Manny was dumb for not accepting the 40Mil.

[GRUSTLER]

My bad, I thought you're one of the few Floyd supporter whose a little bit smart, boy I was so wrong. Obviously I was being sarcastic. You talk about Manny's earnings were the only liable for deductions. You even broke down how much Arum will take from his purse and yet you didn't even think about Mays deductions after everything is said and done? Sit in the corner with Reloaded and suck on your thumb as well. Sit

Haymon is not taking 50% of Mayweather's $. That was something dumb to say in itself.

[brickcityboxing]

He turned down 40M to fight for less than half ... And GOT KO'd lol. It was looking rough for him at that point. I'm sure he even second guessed himself in turning that money down. Props to him though he pulled himself back up put together a few decent wins and here we are. It could've went a different way though even taking into account the opposition he faced, in boxing you just never know but he took a gamble it payed off. Much respect!

$120 = IRS = Al Haymon

Does ******ity run in your family or are you a trendsetter?
