Comments Thread For: Pacquiao Says Mayweather Offered a $40 Million Flat Fee

[shade darkar]

You also fail to realize its Floyd putting up his own money. Floyd hires GBP. Manny is not investing anything into this fight but his own body so why should Floyd give him more than he deserves and make a loss? So its ok for Bob to tell Manny to demand an impossible figure and make LESS against a Top Rank oponent when the fight cant happen but its not ok for Floyd to offer Manny the best payday of his career where he will be making more than Arum?

complete rubbish.

50/50 is fair.

i see what you are saying but that is ******. mayweather wants 100% of all revenues. did you hear that, MAYWEATHER WANTS 100% OF ALL REVENUES! that is unreasonable. can you imagine if pac offered mayweather a 40 mil guarentee and no cut on the ppv revenue?!!! would floyd accept that? would he fcuk.

"How much money do you think Manny really makes off his fights? You do realize in boxing, the fighters best interest financially is in direct conflict with the promoters unless they are one in the same. In Poochiao's case, this is scenario he's faced with, because he's asking for a career high guarantee on the front end, and a substantial cut of the profits on the back end without having to put up any capital. If the fight barley does 2.5 mil, Floyd profit margin is considerably smaller than Manny's because he's taking zero risk"

Its not rocket science. Floyd owns Mayweather promotions and hires GBP to to make fights. Its HIS own money he puts up everytime. Manny does not own any promotional company and does not put up anything. I put it for you as simple as i can and if you cant understand then nobody can help you at this point.

aww look at you copying floyd with the poochiao comment!!!


forget what the fighters have made before. its what mayweather vs pacquiao is worth. everything else is irrelevant.

no, nobody can help you if you are trying to justify mayweather getting 100% of all revenues.

Truck Turner just explained it to you better than i did. Its ok to be a fan of Manny but you dont have to be ignorant to facts. I know for a fact Bob told Manny to demand 50:50. Manny knows nothing about how much he is making but all of a sudden he wants a big chunk of what Floyd puts up? Be real this fight will not happen only because of Master Bob and his slave.

40million is more than 7.4million

Does that mean Floyd pays GBP to promote him? I thought he was his own man and took all the profit of his fights. I think Manny "invests" in his fights by paying a cut to Top Rank as well. Different start but same ending, they both pay a promoters fee. And why is it an impossible figure? Are you implying that Pacman doesn't generate any money? Floyd wanting to pay him 40 mil in a 200 mil fight doesn't make any business sense for Pacman's side.

im actually a marquez fan thanks.

are you really still trying to justify mayweather having 100%?

we can agree to disagree then.

this fight isnt happening because of bob arum and floyds ridiculous 100% demands.

[eddoes]

no, nobody can help you if you are trying to justify mayweather getting 100% of all revenues.

Why dont you just go up to your boss (wherever youre working) and demand the exact amount as the investors when you put up nothing? According to you it makes sense to demand your cut when you put up no capital. Manny is worth 7.4 million to Bob Arum, 40 million from Mayweather is more than reasonable.
