    for a fight?

    I think 40 to 50 mil for his share is something NOT out of the question.

    you?

    It depends on who he is fighting. As the 2nd biggest draw in the sport, I say he would deserve 20-30 million.

    at this point 20/25 mil for a fight like marquez 3, I think thats a huge amount of money, he should only get double for the floyd fight imo, if someone is paying floyd 40 mil for fighting ortiz then thats stupid in my opinion he should also get 20/25.
    Pac getting 7 mil for fights like hatton and cotto(dont know if thats true though) is bull**** and a robbery. Arum also definitely doesnt deserve 27%, 10% is fair enough.

    I think he's getting shortchanged with his recent success.

    Pacquiao can't get paid like Floyd because he has a full time promoter that takes a big chunk of the pie unlike Floyd. He's making $20M+ per fight, and Top Rank does a great job with him in terms of P.R. I don't see what the problem is.

    Manny Pacqiauo can't sell a fight like Floyd, you have to be a bit controversial to be the main attraction in this sport.

    He is still making good money. 25m a fight he deserves.

    $25m guarantee.


    Or I'd not even bother, he's made so much. Ridiculous amounts of money.

    True, but with or without Pacquiao, Arum makes shitloads of money with Top Rank promotions.

    Pacquaio gets shafted by Arum and Konkz, I doubt he makes 20million a fight
