    NSAC aren't going to let anyone lie about the amount of money they are going to be making.

    What was the guarantee then?

    the best part of this is ******* logic...they say manny should go for a %, in this case 50/50, and not take the 40 mil guaranteed, yet in the same breath they claim floyd's earning power is hyper inflated. now, if floyd's ability to pull in revenue is inflated, a % split could actually hurt manny, as opposed to the straight 40 million (which would be whopping 60% more than what he has made on any previous fight).

    Of course it's an opinion. It's an opinion that Mayweather drew the majority of buys but it isn't a fact.

    Do you seriously think Canelo didn't add to the PPV buys? And if Canelo's next fight was on PPV, as many think it will be, how many buys do you think it'll get?

    I strongly disagree, Pacquiao has fought all of the top dogs that are out there to fight he kept the division moving forward while Floyd lost the urge retired was busy in woman beating contest etc..

    if Manny doesnt get an even split across the board he has a right to turn down the fight and its not ducking its smart business decisions son

    What is so smart about turning down double your highest guarantee?

    $25M is his guarantee but doesn't include the PPV upside and other revenues. $40M is fixed without any other revenue. so floyd's offer would only be around 25-30% more than what the highest he could have gotten so far.

    so by that logic, before the cotto fight, floyd's highest guarantee is also $25M and arum's offer of $50M is 100% more than the highest guarantee floyd has ever got (60% of $32M), if you wouldn't count the upsides.

    Floyd generates more revenue and that's not even debatable. 50/50 isn't going to happen and nor should it.

    Check your math 32 mill x 2 is 64 mill.

    stop making **** up...pac is not pulling in 25+PPV

    and worse yet, you still admit the 40 mil is 30% higher than what he could get elsewhere, even with your mongoloid math
