what do you think it should be and why? floyd today claimed he should get the biggest slice of the pie. i don't agree with this, i think it should be 50-50. what do you think would be a fair split of the purse between these 2?
I'd wait til the PPV numbers release before I make a definite answer, but by going by past PPV numbers PBF 55-45, he puts fans in the seats and makes people buy **** whether you are a fan or not.
50-50 is fair. Both have shown the ability to fill the seats and get the buys. My fear is that Floyd will be unreasonable and the fight won't come off. Maybe Floyd will surprise me, I hope so, but remember, he's a hall of fame douche bag.
55-45 towards the winner. Let them earn it. Otherwise 50-50. However i dont think thats gonna work since PBF is known to sell more against the same opponents so it does not look good for Pac. I have a feeling this fight wont get made because of that and also because Roach knows PBF is all wrong for Pac.
Whatever happens theres no way Manny is getting more than 50% I wouldnt be surprised if it ends up 55-45 for Floyd, something in that region.
50/50 and make the fight happen. This is a must-see fight between two massive draws. Splitting hairs over percentage points means everyone loses. If anything, as has been suggested, 60/40 with 60% going to the winner, if that's what they really want. Either way it's just the fight to see.
yeah it will come down to ppv numbers completely. if the cotto/pac fight is sub 1 million- then floyd proves he is the bigger ppv draw. period. if the fight does 1.4 like is being forecast- then 50/50 is fair. if it does high 1's- like 1.6- 1.7- then pac has so much leverage- he can go 55/45- but then floyd is too proud to go past 50 id say. let me put it this way- pac is more likely to be happy with 45 then floyd ever would.
It should be 50-50 but I know one of them that's gonna start to ***** and moan and im not saying who it is.
The numbers clearly support Floyd getting the bigger split. But for a fight of this magnitude, and with so much money to be made, I think both guys should take 50-50.
lol i doubt it but i would like to see them both locked in a room to discuss that with the contract in front of them and see which one chickens out first.
