    Floyd made over 40 million dollars in his last fight. Even if Pac gets more guaranteed, he wont make as much as floyd because he has to pay golden boy and top rank. Does anyone know why he has to keep paying golden boy?

    Basically

    Pac signed with Golden Boy, then signed with Bob Arum.

    While still rightfully under Golden Boy.

    Which is why Golden is a secondary promoter on Pac's fights and makes a % of the deal.

    no man, pac's gives up 27% or something like that to Arum. Arum then had to give Golden Boy 20% of his cut, so Pac wasn't paying Golden Boy anything.

    Also, Arum could use his own accountants to pull some shifties to minimise what Golden Boy got when Pac's fights were not against Golden Boy fighters (Golden Boy accountants would do the numbers if Pac's fights were against Golden Boy fighters). This was all the more incentive for Arum to keep it inhouse (And people blame Arum solely for this which is sad, greedy GBP played a big hand).
    \
    Arum's accountants did such good job keeping what GBP got to a minimum that GBP are now suiing Arum claiming he wasn't declaring all the money he made from Pac and paying them less than they expected.

    Anyway, I don't think Arum owes them that money anymore as Pac's contract has probably expired since (think it was a four or five fight deal)

    That is pretty amazing , he must be one of the richest boxers alive , big paydays against ;

    Marquez 2
    Oscar
    Hatton
    Cotto
    Clottey
    Margarito

    And no doubt 4 or 5 million from his FW and SFW exploits barring Marquez 2 , which he was paid $4M for

    If he fights Floyd he will be well on his way to $200M in pure revenue just from boxing

    Thats impressive :deal
