What should be the most appropriate split and winner's incentive for PAC-Floyd?

50 MOTHER-****ING 50!!!

Floyd does not deserve the majority split. Just as many people are watching for Pac as they are for Floyd.

 

floyd is a greedy, little chicken

 

10% each and the rest to their favorite charity..(this would be Floyd's favorite strip club in this scenario).

 

more people watch floyd per fight. he holds the record for ppvs and that was with the same opponent pac fought which did a lot less.

 

**** off

 

I respect your point, but what does something that was achieved in 2007 have to do w/ who should get the bigger piece in a different fight in 2012?

Pac didn't have the same level of stardom then that he has today, which changes everything.

 

Other...Floyd is the bigger draw and the PPV, revenue, and past purse splits show this.

 

Floyd made $50,000,000 with Miguel Cotto and Pac's high with ppv profit is $25,000,000.

If Pac gets 45% he would be guarantee'd to make $20,000,000 more his highest payday, while Floyd would only make $5,000,000 more his highest payday if he won, and take a $5,000,000 paycut if he lost.

 

Plus this. Floyd deserves the lion's share..If you look at past PPV's Floyd digs him out there too.

Common opponents...

Mayweather De La Hoya 2,400,000
Pacquiao De La Hoya 1,250,000

Mayweather Hatton 920,000
Pacquiao Hatton 850,000

Mayweather Marquez 1,005,000
Pacquiao Marquez 1,450,000

Mayweather Mosley 1,500,000
Pacquiao Mosley 1,150,000

Mayweather Cotto 1,500,000
Pacquiao Cotto 1,200,000

 

If you go by revenue Floyd holds the top 4 spots there too.

De La Hoya Mayweather $135,000,000
Cotto Mayweather $94,000,000
Ortiz Mayweather $78,400,000
Mosley Mayweather $78,000,000

 

Not too far a lead in each case. It would've been a big deal had Floyd led by close to 500k. Except for De La Hoya fight where Oscar was much more active and just finished the Mayorga fight.

Can't see what's bad with 50-50 considering Floyd will also get a career high payday.

 

So use ALL common opponents since they both fought Oscar. Oscar is common in both fighters career's because before Oscar, Floyd had only done 385,000 buys at his max and Pacquiao only did 400,000 buys at his max.

 

Why don't you add each of em up and divide by 5...Floyd averages about 400,000 more buys PER PPV.
