Pac needs to take the $40 million, negotiate to get some of the PPV....

...Take the test, and shut the **** up. :deal

Listen, I agree he should get some of the PPV revenue. But his insistence on 50/50 is ****ing laughable at this point, as Floyd CLEARLY brings in and makes more money than him.

May-Cotto did 1.5 Million buys, which is something that Pac has never hit. There havent even been official numbers released for his last 2 fights (although I am sure they did over a million buys). He has never reached 1.5 million buys with any opponent (common with Floyd or otherwise) and he WILL never hit that mark with anyone in the sport other than Floyd.

Listen, it's a business. If Floyd wanted to just give Pac 50/50 to make the fight, I would be fine looking from the outside in, as a fan who wants to see the fight.

But Arum knows that 50/50 can and will never happen, and if the shoe was on the other foot, Arum would NEVER concede to having to the biggest draw in the sport give up half of the revenue to someone who cant generate as much (which is the reason why DLH-Mosley 3 and DLH-Tito 2 never happened and guess who promoted DLH??)

There is absolutely no mathmatical reason for Floyd to do this, and while it may frustrate us as fans, it is the nature of the business.

Floyd has owned Pac in the number of fights in the top 10 live gates of all time, head to head PPV numbers against common opponents, and purses earned from said fights.

There is no way for Arum to spin this (although he will try). If Pac wants this fight, he needs to leave Arum, and get with someone who has HIS best interest in mind. I am even sure he can get more than the $40 million with the right people negotiating for him.

Floyd had a $32 million dollar guarantee in his last fight. Pac had a $6 million dollar guarantee.

But Floyd is supposed to go 50/50?:rofl:rofl

Like I said, if Floyd did it, I would not even be mad, because we get to see the fight. But the idea that it is Floyd being unreasonable is simply not true.

Unless you think Pac vs. Bradley will top 1.5 million ppv buys :-(

 

Pac has NEVER EVER drawn 73,000 to Dallas, and I know you cant find a link to back that up because it is completely FALSE.

And regarding the discount, I'm sure you heard that from Arum who has been screaming about it all last week. Not really a reliable source.

And even if what you say is true (and it isnt) how does the explain the disparity between purses earned and PPV numbers against common opponents?

 

So Floyd needs help to earn big numbers, but Pac does it all by himself, despite the fact that he has fought many of the same opponents in recent years?

Cool story bro!!:rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl

Looks like you need to learn how to count, lil' buddy. :yep

 

PAc has fought in May several times, on Cinco De mayo weekend, has a legit Mexican fanbase, mexicans on the undercard (like Rios) and he still doesnt hit those numbers.

Grabbing at straws man. :deal
