    Wonder what Pac gets as far as viewers from Asia ? I mean that needs to be taken into consideration ..Sure its great to have a million PPV buys in the US but whats the world wide numbers ?

    Arum guarantees Pac 6-7 million. it's no secret. The numbers are always released.

    It's absolutely no coincidence that Cotto, Mayweather and Oscar were making their biggest Pays after dumping Arum and going out on their own.

    sometimes part of your HBO deal includes HBO getting internation rights, hence why they pay you so much of the PPV

    then they get some back selling it to international TV stations

    they dont get too much back usually due to time differences etc

    This is common knowledge. You thought Floyd actually has a promoter's license?

    According to bob - all the high rollers come to watch manny fight ( and we all know he was referring to the Asians ) still does not explain how come one makes so much more than the other.

    Regardless of how you say it, what Floyd has done regarding the structure of his contract is something special, especially after you stated all things are equal.

    You are a ****** if you think Pac can not earn what Foyd earns, there is no reason for Pac to earn less than Floyd:hi:

    It's pretty amazing how much posters here think they know about the contracts of fighters or how much they actually make, based on a press release or two.

    Don't stay.

    I understand from Pac's point of view he doesn't wanna deal with the promotional bull**** and would rather focus on the fighting aspect which is why he lets Arum take that 27% share of his cut (actually since the contracts are not public Arum probably has some loopholes in there or some **** that allows him to get away with more)


    Either way, ditch Arum, let floyd do the promoting/gruntwork and give him some extra cash for it. He's rich enough, I'm sure he can find a mathematician to find a proper midway point for the two to reconcile regarding split.

    I'll take your response, as you don't know the answer either:rofl

    So please inform us how do you know the ins and outs of their contracts, seeing how you're here telling us how it goes?

    Pacquiao is too busy to promote himself, so what else could he do? Leave for another promoter and if so, who? GBP have slandered Pacquiao and none of the other promotional companies can match Arum.

    He may as well just stay with him.
