What are the purses for Mayweather and Cotto

Are you really going to dodge the question or is English a difficult language for you to comprehend?

Yes $40 million is likely from mostly from PPV sales.
Yes, Cotto is unlikely to get $40mil. But unlikely does not mean never.


But again, why EVEN OFFER Cotto 65/35 split and 100/0 non negotiable? WHY? Why offer ANYONE 35%, let alone some one who is less of a draw that Pac?

I know you are going to play semantics with "purse cut" but that is just what really your argument comes to - semantics.

You are reaching/ stretching PBF's own words to some how magically turn 100/0 to actually some how comparable to 65/35.


And if read this thread, you can see people quoting that Cotto will receive somewhere around $30 mil.

 

Who gives a **** about purses ?.... whats wrong with you people ? :-(

 

How in the **** should I know why he offered what to who? I'm not him.

The fact remains $40 million is not zero, so I don't know why your ignorant ass keeps pretending like this deal somehow equals 100/0. If the fight brings in the same money as DLH-Mayweather, $40 million would equal about a 52/48 split in favor of Pacquiao.

I did read this thread. I know some idiots have "quoted" that Cotto will receive somewhere around $30 million, and I also know that's a ****ing pipe dream. There's no way in hell Mayweather-Cotto outsells DLH-Mayweather, and it would have to for Cotto to make anywhere close to that type of money.

 

Floyds got a leather one, Cottos got a velcro.

 

Ugh - you do know there is a huge financial and legal difference between flat fee and percentage cut right? I know you want to play semantics but it is just illustrating your ignorance or truly disingenuous.

No one if ****ing arguing that $40 mil is based on PPV, gate, hot dogs, hookers or what ever else is ****ing sold that day.

The discussion is about PERCENTAGE CUT and not flat fee.

Maybe they did not teach that in your high school or you where absent that day.

Yes because we all know that the contract structure, inflation, labor and event ralated fees/cost is exactly like PBF vs ODLH.

But again that does not change the fact that PBF is willing to do percentage cut with Cotto and not for Pac does it?

 

I will say this once again. All of this **** could have been worked out if Arum would have just answered his phone and went into negotiations with Shaefer and the mediator. Floyd would have never called Pac. Hell a 2 fight deal could have been worked out and signed for all we know. Bottom line, they are all at fault for this fight not happening all this time and regardless of who has done what we should all be able to agree on that.

 

I agree to a certain point. There are many cooks in the kitchen and the top 2 chefs - Arum and PBF just hate each other. On top of that Pac does not have the street smart to get things done.

Bottom line - too many people looking at the bottom line in a fight that will earn a lot of money for everyone no matter what the deal is.

 

where did you get that figures?

these are all Pac's PPV where he is the A-side and after fighting ODLH and becoming a crossover superstar:

jmm3 - 1.41M
mosley - 1.3M
margarito - 1.15M
clottey - 0.70M
cotto - 1.25M
hatton - 0.85M

for these 6 fights only, total is already 6.66M PPV buys. so where did you get that figure where pac's 11 PPV fights only totaled 6.3M buys?

 

The figure doesnt include the Mosley for Manny or the fight or the Ortiz fight for Floyd. I can add that in and the average will stiil be higher.

 

can you put all their PPV fights and list them? and all those fights before oscar doesn't matter much. you should compare all the PPV buys of fights after they fought oscar where they became superstars and was the A-side.

 

they never released Mosley vs manny and jmm3 vs manny bob is not doing it anymore

 

1. Nobody knows what the Pac figures were since Arum doesn't release them.

Considering Pac Cotto did 1.25M you can bet your ass mayweather Cotto does minimum 1.5M, and I'd add more because of the Alvarez fight, so my estimates are at 1.7M

PPV revenue at $70 (Ortiz fight): 119 Million
Gate: sell out at MGM or close to: 11 Million
Sponsorship: No Idea but it'll be a decent amount, so lets say even to the live gate? 11 million
HBO's share:the 50% percentage of PPV (Not sure of actual percentage) 59.5 million
Undercard and GBP: no way will this be over 10 million.

according to my estimates that leaves 71 million.
65% to Mayweather: 46.15 Million
35% to Cotto: 24.85 Million
0% income tax in the state of Nevada: minus 0

24.85 Million is a pretty good payday, and this could be higher or lower due to my lack of knowledge of HBO PPV percentage and sponsorship, these are just estimates I'm no professional in regard to sport events, but the estimates of Mayweather earning double Cotto have to be off if the 65/35 is true as double 35 is 70.

if you think 1.7 million is a high estimate your crazy considering this event has Mayweather Cotto and Alvarez all on the weekend known for selling fights.

 

Your Mosley figure is wrong.:deal Arum is not a good source..can't trust what that guy says. Klitschko fans, RJJ fans, Hatton fans, Kirkland fans, Marquez fans, Cotto fans, Margarito fans will all tell you the same. 1,100,000 for the Mosley fight.

 

:rofl:rofl:rofl

This ****** loves to keep Oscar out of it..******* logic at it's best..it isn't about being the "a" side you stupid *******...it's about the ACTUAL numbers at hand....

******* logic-"Can't use Oscar fights":|:|

 

Can you post Floyd's last 7 ppv numbers ?:think
