And then proceeded to defeat Mayweather. Would he have gotten the 6 fight deal with Showtime for 200+mil instead?
Arum of course would have taken his cut for brokering the deal so I don't think that would have been a problem for Arum lol. When ppl defend Pac's stance on not accepting the 40mil, IMO not only was it the most Pac would make in his career but if he potentially won the fight the earnings after that could have been amazing. The worst case he would be in the same situation he is now after getting knocked out by Marquez.
Pac doesn't need all that money, he already got the greatest honor of his era. The greatest fighter of his era, the fighter of the decade . Ain't no money can buy that honor.
Nope Because Arum is hes daddy. plus hes just not a bigger draw Mayweather because Mayweather plays the villian. Villians get paid
Here's a remedial lesson: as you noted Pac is under contract with Top Rank. So Floyd's offer wasn't for Pac, it was for Pac and Top Rank to split. Consider they split at least that much for JMM 3 and 4, and obviously it's a laughable and insulting offer.
