There is an argument who is the bigger draw, Floyd Mayweather v Manny Pacman
The best way to split the purse is to compare each other PPV numbers against similar opponent and put it into percentage
This is how it should go
Pay Per View Sales:
Vs Delahoya
Mayweather: 2.4 million
Pacquiao: 1.2 million
Vs. Marquez
Mayweather: 1.0 million
Pacquiao: 400K
Vs Hatton
Mayweather: 950K
Pacquiao: 825K
Total:
Mayweather: 4,35 million
Pacquiao: 2.43 million
Mayweather and Pacman numbers together = 6.78
Mayweather split = 4.35/6.78 = 64%
Pacman split = 2.43/6.78 = 36%
That is the fairest way possible. Pacman cannot use his P4P status as a bargaining tool since he is P4P #1 because Mayweather retired
64/36 Floyd kicks Pacmans ass
