    If $40m was the deal Pacquiao deserves, Mayweather wouldn't be offering it to him.

    Yes i even if you do i bet its still more than $40 million. As someone said even though Pac gets $40 million of Floyd it isnt guaranteed money he still has to pay Manager, Trainer , Tax, etc etc. Like i said he is and i think they would have better projections than what i came up with.

    By Pac saying NO straight up to Floyd on the phone i dare say even he knows he and the projections they have for this fight are more than $40 Million thats my point.

    I think Floyd thinks Pacquiao is stupid which is not the case.

    why is it common sense when it is all very much hypothetical. pac imo will be lucky to get 40 mil off arum if top rank co promote on a 50/50 basis. Arum pays him peanuts in comparison to what pac has made for top rank.

    Shitty offer or not, pac is in no position to be negotiating cos each way he goes he wont get as good a deal as he should, therefore making the 50/50 bull**** irrelevant.

    What pac makes on his end is no business to Floyd, and doesn't affect him anyway. The bottom line is he's at least half the draw of the PPV buys, so he deserves 50-50 of the revenue.

    Arum's % remains the same either way. Manny would make more total if Top Rank co-promotes. This is a no brainer. Manny knows the numbers. This fight will never happen if Floyd is the sole promoter. Floyd knows it, the whole world knows it. QUACK!

    What the **** Dendy i gave numbers real numbers at what they are predicting for the total fight revenue.

    16 million to 19 million for the live gate is a real number. and thats what there predicting.

    At the very least there predicting 2 million PPV for this fight at a average at $60 a pop thats $150 Million

    Then Sponsorship Money could be anywhere from $10 to 20 Million.

    Like i said they are Predicting and you could do the research yourself if you were not half ******ed.

    At the Least the total revenue they would be predicting to be $150 Million to $220 Million.

    But you another ****ing idiot want Pac to Except $40 Million when him and Bob could make $100 Million between them and Pac more than likely getting 60 Million when all said and done.

    What percentage does Manny receive from Top Rank if they are co-promoters.. In 29 pages I've seen tons of smart people break down how Pac would make much more based off of how much they believe the fight will generate.. But that doesn't mean **** as far as what Pac makes if you don't know the percentage he takes from a co-promotion from Top Rank. So... How much is it people? And.. Source or STFU as usual.

    i am not disagreeing with you, however, bob arum sees to it pac doesn't make anything near 40 mil even with 50/50 split. I believe arum takes the lions share of ppv revenue and pays manny **** all. I really do believe his contract with top rank is this bad and therefore potentially a big reason why this fight being so difficult to negotiate. Manny is ****ed either way and it is a sorry situation for all fans.

    How would Pac be getting 60 million out of the 100 million him and Bob make, in your prediction? Pac gets 60/40 split with Arum after Arum gets his 50% from co-promoted fights? :think Link?!

    You'll keep waiting, because that's up to Pac to negotiate with Arum.

    Pac has a **** deal with Arum, that is abundantly clear. That is no one's fault other than Pacquiao's.

    Manny should have renegotiated his contract multiple times since he first got with Top Rank, or flat out left. Followed the business model that has been put forth by the likes of De LaHoya and Mayweather and guaranteed, he would be making almost twice the amount he makes already.

    Arum and his lynch knot on Pacquiao is what is ****ing this fight over.

    i don't disagree with your figures but are having trouble seeing how pac would receive any of this when top rank are his paymasters. Therefore i think it is irrelevant cos business wise pac obviously doesn't call the shots.

    I think that's why Floyd called and talked to Pac, and told him he would make more than he ever has before and he needs to get his promoter on the same page... He thought he could convince Pac to take the offer, since he'd be getting a guarantee of $40 million.

    Now of course when Pac told Arum that Arum blew up and told Pac he would be insane to take such a shitty deal..
