Serious question about Manny Pacquiao....

NOPE. What I am arguing here is NUMBERS. I'm a business man...and I'm debating the business aspect of this fight....In this thread I'm not here to debate who is a better fighter, who fought a better version of who, or who has more KOs....That's for another thread..This is specifically about who the bigger draw is, who the better business man is, and who has EARNED the right to have more say in the purse amounts.

Awards are one thing..He's got his FOTD award, FOTY awards, and whatever else decorations he's received, belts, certificates, coupons whatever...he's been rewarded for what he's accomplished inside the ring.

But on a similar token, Mayweather has to be rewarded for all the effort he has put into attracting the casual fan.

Now the argument can be made that Pac too needs to be rewarded for attracting the casual fan...and that's TRUE...

Taking into consideration Mayweather's acheivements when it comes to generating much needed attention and revenue to the sport, the best scale to make a comparison is using PPV #s, in which case Mayweather has proven to be able to ATTRACT more buyers than Pacquiao.

Hence the reason he deserves more.

You use too many double standards. BTW, your above post, how does it prove manny deserves to stop negotiations by saying he will not budge,a nd demand 50/50 when clearly Floyd has worked harder in promoting his fights (according to you) and attracting more buyers??

 

Well he is...Even when Mosley was at the top of his game, after the WINNING the BIGGEST fight if his career against DLH...He couldn't sell out Madison Sqaure Thaetre against Forrest...MST houses 5000 people!!!!

What a draw!!!!! :shock: atsch

 

It's worse than that...It's like if you and a co-worker had the same job, but he outperformed you, produced more, generated more, and worked harder to generate more revenue.

You boss has to give both of you a bonus but keep it within an allotted amount, and he is going to split the bonus, but you say...." I want 50/50... of that,a nd I'm NOT BUDGING".

 

Many things changed.

1.New Negotiation table.
2.Floyd killed Pac in buys in their most recent PPV fights.
3.Floyd using same tactic Pac's team used in there first negotiations..PPV #s for their ast fights.
4.Pac acting like a ***** trying to sue everyone.
5.Pac lying, and playing games.

etc etc etc...

 

I wouldn't say vast, maybe a majority...But nevertheless it's contraversial..because the otherside has a valid point....P4P is ALL subjective, so really, you can't say there is a defenitive RIGHT answer all the time.

Mad, me? Why? I'm cool...You're a ******* bro..I thought *******s were proud of thatn title? Anyway, whatever...

...You call it how you feel it, because if you called ithow you see ity, you would see Mayweather is a bigger draw, and justly should get the bigger purse.

it is a fact that an organization gave Pac FOTD award..Yes, but that organization doesn't speak for ALL OF BOXING. It's opiniated, subjective, and MORE IMPOTANTLY it doesn't determine PURSES.

Floyd came into the first Negotiations with ONE major demand...Random Blood tests..Pac didn't want them for one ODD reason or another and bailed out...went on to fight Clottey..

Floyd wanted testing up to the day of the fight, but Pac REFUSED, so eventually Floyd conceded to 14 days from teh fight.

Still, Pac didn't want it...who knows why??? nevertheless Pac bailed out of negotiations and opted to fight a meaningless fight in Clottey.

Then Pac comes back saying..fine fine..Porteen days okay...

New negotiations...Floyd came to the table with a clear demand, and that was he got a bigger share. he was willing to negotiate, but wanted what was rightfully his, or what he had earned...

...Pac said he would not NEGOTIATE (budge).

Clearly Pac is the one being impossible to work with..what a pirmadonna he's turned ot to be.
