I think : $15-$20 million at the gate they should put this fight up in a stadium, it will be a star studded affair ! plus: $109,900,000 in PPV's, 2M at a minimum @ $54.95. plus: a couple of million more in CC television. anywhere from $130M-$140M in total revenue, possibly more At least $17-$22 million to each guy guaranteed depending on negotiations and how floyd looks against JMM plus the PPV upside, each will take home $25-$30 million. yes i am an accountant! and yes this fight is this lucrative beleive it!!
This fight has to happen. 50/50 is still as big a number they will ever make fighting anyone else...if marketed correctly it could break all records. + just the whole importance of this fight to boxing...we don't want people to still be questioning who would have won PBF vs Pac fantasy fight in 50 years time!
I am thinking it might not happen. Floyd doing that 50/50 split thing and the games he plays shows me he might not want the fight so he needs an excuse.
look at those numbers i just calculated and tell me with a straight face that it will not happen, way too much money on the table for it not to happen!
If Floyd is as great as he said he is then he won't mind putting his purse on the table...... or at least some of it anyway. I reckon Manny wouldn't back down. It don't get fairer than that.
I don't know and I don't care . . . fans are not getting part of the money anyway. . . . but kidding aside . . . it has a chance to surpass sales records . . . if the fight happens . . . it's gonna be a fight between two rated in their prime fighters.
