    Agree. JMM was champ both times and took a lowball offer in the rematch. Give JMM $30,000 and a lifetime membership for blockbuster and he'll take it.

    Is that why Pac did his highest non DLH drawing with JMM?

    Pac (or at least his people) have a history of some ridiculous contractual offers.

    well most sources say his purse before ppv was between 5-10 million pounds which is 10-20 million dollars and then he got the uk tv ppv buys which was at least 1 million buys at 15 pounds min this equates to between says 25-35 million dollars or around 15 million pounds. Hw would not get 100% of the uk ppv revenue but he would get a vast majority of it making him between say 25-50 million dollars overall.
