Chavez Jr. will pocket $3 million, Martinez, $1.4 million, +PPV

Do the boxers get more based on PPV revenue?

 

two major factors in this are.....


1. dibellas an idiot


2. there really isn't a fanbase for him



look what bob did with manny....he MADE a fanbase :good

 

of course.....they get a percentage...so the better it does, the more they get

 

But there's a population of Filipino-American boxing fans that Pacquiao could be marketed to, a luxury that Martinez doesn't have. And let's be frank, the one thing that made Pacquiao a star more than anything else was the Oscar fight; it's pretty damn hard to become a star in boxing if there's not a bigger star that you can fight.

I hear people rip DiBella's promoting all the time, but I have no idea what specifically he could have done for Martinez, a guy who he didn't even start promoting until he was already in his mid-30s.

 

Martinez is already 37 years old, though. He'll gain some popularity with the fight but this isn't a casual fight. Only hardcore and Mexican fans will be watching this one.

 

i think martinez would have fought this one for free.....he wants to whip his ass that bad ...chavez will be paid well for the ass kicking in store for him
