The purse split was only one of many excuses Mayweather had to avoid this fight. Ask yourself why he would turn down more money than he could possibly make in any other fight because he did not want his opponent to make as much as he made or why he wanted to control how much his opponent made?

If I made enough for myself why would I care what the other guy made?

I don't know wtf you're trying to say...but let me make it more simple

Ok..so let's say..the ppv fight is at $70..and it sells 3 million ppv's...that would make it $210 million...then add all ticket sales+international broadcast..that would make the revenue about $230 million.

Then the payments to hbo,showtime,texes boxing. Commision,vada,wba,wbc.wbo,ibf,cowboys stadium,golden boy and all that crap...which brings the revenue back to $215

Million(I haven't included the 25% taxes in the states of Texes)

So in the end..floyd is saying Pacquaio and top rank should take $40 million and walk away..while floyd will make $130 million+

edit:floyd is saying manny will only get the pre-fight 40 million and NO ppv profits share..in purse split...that would be about 75-25

**** Mayweather, greedy cowardly asshole. Manny is a prize fighter! A pure true prize fighter that takes on all comers, cheats on his wife and pisses all his money away on people less fortunate than himself. The man is a legend, always will be. Floyd is a beautiful boxer but he is not what a prize fighter should be.

floyd: hey midget, i'll give you 30 on all revenues, that's it, take it or leave it!

manny: ok, so you gettin 70? fine to me, praise the lord, god bless...

floyd: but i dont want you giving arum even a cent from it, leave arum or no fight

manny: you just said that 30 is mine, why you care how i spend it?

floyd: dont question me muthafukka, i dictate the fight, obey or no fight

manny: ok i'll talk to arum so we can part as friends

floyd: wtf, you have to fire him out, kick his butt muthafukka!!! before you sign my TMT or no fight

manny: ok, i sign contract first to your promotion before anything!

floyd: whut a aint got no promotion, you high?

manny: TMT, your promotion?

floyd: TMT is my beauty salon, wana work there?

floyd: ok that's it, i said OBEY.... you blew it, you ask too many question, no more fight...

floyd: goodbye muthafukka!!!

pac: jesus loves chickens too!

Pacquiao got KTFO, what else do you expect him to get?

with floyd gettin the bigger purse, what purse split woul pac get... according to my calculator;

150 mil gives pac 26.6%

200 mil, pac get 20%

300 mil, its a humiliating 13.3% for pac

w/ floyd gettin more than 86%...

wtf...didnt floyd gave cotto 30?!

I mean really, how can a real boxing fan supports this bullsh!t?
