How should the money be split???

[Clyde Barrow]

Just call it 50-50 down the middle and the fight can happen.

Nope.

Pac is the p4p king, and has more options, willing to take more risks.

In short Pac has guys lined up to fight him and they'll accept Pac's terms... WILLINGLY.

Just ask Mosley whom gayweather ducked.

You people are real ****** if u think Pac will accept anything less than 60 percent.

In the first place ur just trying to convince urselves... the whole bunch of stans.

Pac will dictate terms... gayweather either bows down or he craps himself up again vs Mosley.

Pac btw isnt gayweather... he will fight Mosley.

makes absolute sense, numbers-wise E but i highly doubt PAC will take 50 or less...he himself is a diva when it comes to negotiations

oh I know and its comical how angelic Manny is perceived and how villian like Floyd is when it comes to the same issues

numbers dont lie and with the two projections for the Cotto fight for Manny I think both numbers are fair considering Manny (for whatever reason) draws about 27% less people to his PPV and gets about the same numbers $$$wise at the gate

no way Floyd takes 50% if he has out PPVd Manny and held court in terms of sales of the gate

and there, within our exchange of views, is a microcosm on why some have doubt about this fight happening

who gives a **** what the fighters make . As boxing fans we should want the fight to happen regarless . I couldnt give a **** if floyd and manny got nothing , just as long as they fought.

[Piper the Great]

fans shouldnt worry about the money

[Eaner0919]

shouldn't but its reality and probably the biggest reason why certain fights do not get made

you guys want to have blinders on so be it but its a very real part of the sport we love

Of course they should, if the fight doesn't get made someone needs to take the blame.

of course it is but fans shouldnt care how much each fighter makes . Thats for fighters and promoters to debate about . It just really pisses me off when people say floyd/pac shouldnt fight unless they get x amount of dollars , %ppv sales etc. Talking about which fighter is the biggest draw .They should just hope the fight happens ... no more no less.

[them_apples]

Floyd & Manny = 55/45 Floyd ... I think this gets the fight done.
Manny & Shane = 65/35 Manny
Floyd & Shane = 65/35 Floyd
Floyd & Cotto = 65/35 Floyd



What does everyone else think?

I'd like it to be 50/50 for floyd vs Manny

Pacquiao on paper has done a hell of a lot more to deserve the bigger check though, but 50/50 would do considering the amount of money they would both make.
