    Heres a more accurate account

    5000 Gate $90.......................................$450k
    20000 PPV $49.95 50/50..........................$499.5K
    Sponsors...............................................$100k
    189 Pubs and Clubs x $2.5k 50/50..............$236.25K

    Sub total - $150k Expenses
    Total = $1,135,750 if that....

    Factored in free seats at venue plus splits with PPV given its 50/50

    Why? What's in that for Mundine?

    A second loss to Geale, and on the world stage he's off the radar! He'd then only have the Green pension payment to collect, followed by retirement.

    No point even trying to claim he's The Man anymore if Geale cleans him up in straight sets!

    Where would Geale head to after a win here????

    What does the US have to offer over Europe.

    Geale is a very busy technically correct fighter, I can see him building some strong and lucrative ties in Europe.

    Does anyone have an insight into a Geale plan post Mundine win??

    Mundine gets 60%.....and I dont mind your version....even though its a bit shy. SBW has a big hate base now so that makes a lot of haters looking for a win :hey

    And how many of that 8000 do you reckon paid?

    Sorry mate, but your numbers in every part are incredibly way off.

    For a start, you think they keep all of the $50 buy rate on PPV?

    2/3 at best, maybe a half.

    But tell me what your facts are?

    And if I hadn't told you the first part, you would have got that where?

    Check your initial estimation.

    I was always talking gross numbers mate......Mundine/ Boxa is the promoter as well...how about we start with taking off the staff costs, gym fees, air fairs, hotel accom, Yodas cab fairs and Mundine choc shakes at maccas...then we will get the right numbers :patsch
