Is it possible that Manny could possibly make that type of money in a future fight?
When viewing this from a management standpoint. Assuming the 40 mil offer from Floyd was legit. Was it a better career move for Manny to continue his wars with Marquez where he makes the lions share but overall less money, Or take a smaller portion and possibly less than his true value to fight Floyd but for more money than he could make in any other fight?
Also for reference does anyone know how many Fighters have broken 40 mil for a fight?Last edited by Slip Stream; 02-27-2013, 11:36 PM.

Manny would be ******ed to take a flat fee and nothing on the back end. Horrible business move.

it's about time you stopped with all your horse drek. When Mayweather made the $40 mill "offer", Pacquiao imediately turned it down and COUNTERED with a $50 mill offer to Mayweather. Mayweather turned it down.
You have incurable Arumitis. It affects inside the head first, then it travels to the typing fingers.
You guys are just too stupid for words, and maybe i'm not too bright myself for bothering to post here.
As for your stupid nonsense about the cut, He was not ready to fight in early May. Arum made it very clear that the standard healing time for a 3 layer stitched cut to the bone was 6 months, and Pacquiao could not be ready until the end of May at earliest, or beginning of june. It was all on this site, probably before you learned to read.

The rules of supply and demand apply to boxing just like anything else. and essentially since Manny's fights already generate a number close to what mayweather's do but he is making less he is already allowing himself to be cheated out of money by Arum.
