    Have Mayweather and Manny split the up front expenses to market the fight and put in the same amount of promotional work. That's the best way for a fair 50/50 split.

    Manny can't have 50% of the revenue if Mayweather is the one fronting the up front marketing expenses. So split the expenses 50/50 to earn 50% of the revenue.

    You mean not cut Arum out so he makes more money? You just wasted a lot of space typing irrelevant **** because Pac already has a capable promoter.

    I didn't say he wasn't a capable promoter I was just saying what the agreement should be to make the fight and have a 50/50 split. Split the up front expenses with Mayweather, split the amount of promotional time, split the PPV revenue.

    No need to get all butt hurt because you don't feel Arum will get his share. He can always go back to stealing Pac's money one way or another.

    What the hell is wrong with you. Don't you know Pac deserves 50% of everything, regardless of whether he puts up any cash for expenses or takes any financial risks in the promotion and lead up to the fight? :bart

    In all seriousness, I would have assumed most folk understaood this. Apparently not.

    Pac can pay still pay him to do his 27% to do his promotional work, but the most important part is splitting the up front expenses if he wants the 50/50 rev.

    Not all butt hurt. I'm pointing out what should have been painfully obvious from the beginning. This isn't happening if it isn't a co-promotion. I've posted this before today in other threads. Everyone with half a brain has known this all along. It isn't my fault if Floyd in a moment of greed didn't use more than half of his brain. If he didn't know this, he damned well should have. His arrogance has gotten way out of hand and is stopping this fight from happening. Trying to book the venue ahead of time was his attempt of control. It was NEVER going to happen for this fight. NEVER.

    Why should this be any more sensible that the rest of the 'debate' has been?

    You say this but Mayweather is still the one willing to front the expenses and doesn't need a promoter or investor to do so. Mayweather is acting as an investor, promoter and boxer. That's his business model so he obviously is going to look to get his cut from 2 of those 3 fazes(investor and boxer) while saving money on paying a promoter. If Pac wants to earn as much as Mayweather then he would need to do the same. Split the investments, split the revenue. And if he decides to pay Arum 27% to do the promo work that's on him.

    Pac doesn't have to cut Arum out of anything really. Pac can split the upfront investment money with Arum and they can split there share of the 50% revenue between them if they want.

    WTF? It has already been posted that is is OBVIOUS that this would be a co-promotion. That means splitting EVERYTHING. Cost and revenue. Floyd has lined up money hungry investors with visions of $$$ and being important in the boxing world dancing in their heads. Floyd and risking ****. He's got other fools willing to do that.
