    Mayweather vs

    Tszyu - 40/60 (Mayweather is champ, Tszyu is quitter)
    Cotto - 40/60 (Mayweather has more meaningful title)
    Hatton - 50/50 (both have titles)
    Witter - 25/75 (Mayweather on title/name)
    Margarito - 35/65 (Mayweather on name recognition)
    Judah - 35/65 (Mayweather on name recognition)
    Winky - 50/50 (Mayweather would be moving up, both known equally)

      Agree except I would give Mayweather Judah 60/40 split

        Mayweather vs

        Tszyu 50% both great fighters, both have good market value

        Cotto 60% Mayweather is a lot more proven than Cotto, probably a big favourite but Cotto is a name and should get at least a 40% cut

        Hatton 50% Hattons a bigger ticket/PPV seller thans Mayweather but Mayweather has a more proven track record, its a fair 50/50 IMO

        Witter 75% Witter hasnt done **** to get his WBC ranking, he cant sell tickets either, the only thing Witter has going for him is his weird style, which would help the fight sell better.

        Margarito 60% Mayweathers ability should get him more, plus Margarito isnt number 1 at welter, but the fact Margarito has a Mexican army behind him means he'll sell tickets.

        Judah 60% Judah is lucky to get the 40%, he IMO isnt on the same level as Mayweather, but the 147 belts are a bargaining tool.

        Winky 50% if your Winky it would be ****** to fight Mayweather for less than a 50% cut, even if you win your only beating someone half your size.

          Interesting thread...

          Mayweather vs

          Tszyu - 50% (would have been in Tszyu's favour but he got beat by Hatton)

          Cotto - 60%

          Hatton - 40% (Hatton generates more money and he's the linear champ).

          Witter - 80% (take care on the mandatory)

          Margarito - 60%

          Judah - 45% Judah holds all the belts...

          Winky - 50%

              mayweather should get more money than any of the listed fighters, but it should be reasonable enuff so that the other fighters are not insulted.

                Hard to answer because he wasnt a huge draw but it only takes 1 fight to be one and I think the Gatti fight made him crossover a littile. I think you have to wait one more fight to gauge his value

                    Judah is holding all the belt but i do agree that Judah should get less.

                    Hattons a far bigger draw than Mayweather, Hatton could sell out 80,000 tickets within the first day of sales. Mayweather would struggle to sell out 80,000 tickets in 5 world title fights. In terms of ticket sales Mayweather should get a smaller cut against Hatton, but because boxing purses are also bases on achievements i say its a fair 50/50 fight.
