Comments Thread For: Mayweather-McGregor: Contract Clause Prevents Talk of Purses

Well i disagree with this match a 100 percent is a disgrace to boxing but I don't mind seeing mc getting a nice pay day the dude deserve more than what he makes at ufc

I think they're being very optimistic with the expected revenue. The majority of people on here aren't interested in this fight. Are they expecting UFC fans to buy this? I don't think it will make half of what mayweather vs pacquaio did.

We are the minority. I know I won't buy it but it will obviously do very very well on ppv.

But I really don't think the goal is 100% to maximize revenue. Mayweather loves money but he loves attention more. This is about getting attention again. Boxing is having a great year without him and he hates that. If this was 100% about maximizing revenue for this event, it wouldn't be taking place in August.

Funny how us hardcores on here think we're even half of the people that but ppv. We're the ones looking for streams except a few times a year. Casuals buy! People I can't get to watch a free boxing match are asking me if I'm having a fight party.
This will do great, no matter how much you guys complain.

If Conor sees $25m from that purse I would be shocked.

I read somewhere that the UFC takes 60% of his purse or whatever it is? Thats crazy if true

That's probably they have a contract clause

Oh ok. If he makes 100 mil and they take about 70 mil, he still has 30 mil in his pocket so **** it i guess
