Pacquiao-Mayweather bout may depend on how well Pacquiao’s bout against Margarito does on PPV

By Matt Stein: Manny Pacquiao says he really wants to fight Floyd Mayweather Jr., and yet his next opponent, the recently disgraced Antonio Margarito, may not generate enough pay per view buys to make it possible for Pacquiao’s promoter Bob Arum to successfully negotiate a fight with Mayweather. You have to think that Pacquiao-Margarito has to generate at least 1 million PPV buys for Pacquiao to have a decent chance of having a fight put together with Mayweather. Pacquiao would have a great chance no matter how long his PPV numbers are for the Margarito fight if he were willing to accept less than a 50-50 deal with Mayweather. But Pacquiao wants to get equal terms with Mayweather and that’s hard to argue for when Pacquiao is coming up with only 700,000 for his recent fight against Joshua Clottey compared to Mayweather’s 1.4 million PPV buys against Shane Mosley last May.

Pacquiao will a second chance to do better with the Margarito fight, and HBO is even going to help Pacquiao’s cause by putting together a four part Pacquiao-Margarito 24/7 series to help encourage boxing fans to purchase the fight on PPV. You have to wonder whether HBO is doing this with the long term plans of having this fight do well and that helping Pacquiao negotiate a fight with Mayweather. Because the Margarito vs. Pacquiao fight seems like an awful idea for a 24/7 series because Pacquiao can barely speak English at all, and Margarito speaks only Spanish. It’s going to be strange to have an interpreter doing a lot of the speaking for Margarito and having to read a lot of sub titles.

HBO has to be angling to try and help Pacquiao get some decent PPV buys, because this seems like an awful choice for an HBO 24/7 series. Pacquiao’s promoter Bob Arum really isn’t helping Pacquiao’s case by choosing Margarito to fight Pacquiao rather than directing him outside of his own stable to more popular fighters like Sergio Martinez, Paul Williams, or Andre Berto. Those would be great fights. A bout against Margarito won’t be.

One school of thought is that if a bout against the obscure Top Rank fighter Clottey was able to bring in 700,000, then a fight against Margarito should be able to bring in another three hundred thousand because of his Hispanic fan base. However, it’s hard to guess whether they’ll back him in big enough numbers to surpass the Pacquiao-Clottey numbers of 700,000. Margarito has never been a PPV attraction. His fight against Cotto in 2008 drew 450,000 buys, but you can argue that most of those buys came because of Cotto, not Margarito. And since then, Margarito was stopped in the 9th round by Shane Mosley last year, and suspended for a year for having a plaster like substance found in his hand wraps before that fight. The year off from boxing didn’t help Margarito’s popularity and his win over little known Roberto Garcia last May didn’t bring in good PPV numbers either.

    @JustDfacts

    Honestly, it’s more important that people are ordering Mayweather’s fights than why they are ordering his fights.

  • vinny says:

    The article is telling the truth for the most part. If this fight against Margarito doesn’t match Mayweather’s last ppv numbers, it will only make negotiations harder for Arum. One angle I’ve started to look at this from is a business stand point. Think about it like this, if Pacquiao had agreed to Mayweather’s original terms from the first negotation and went on to fight Mayweather and loose, would he have still done 700,00 ppvs against Clottey? Would he even do 700,00 against Margarito? Probably not. Arum’s plan is to get as many ppv fights out of Pacquiao as he can while Pacquiao is still hot, because if he put him in their with Mayweather before matching him with the other top rank guys he risk losing the opportunity to make more money off Pacquiao.

  • JustDFacts says:

    @tich-But a lot of those people buying May’s fight are the ones who wants to see him knocked out. Heck, even Mayweather admited ot it.’People just wants to see him go down.’

  • JustDFacts says:

    @tich ..live with it Pac fans that Pac cannot and will never be paid the same as Floyd.

    Dear Pac fans no matter how loud u shout or try to downgrade Floyd,s achievements there is no way Pac will ever beat Floyd. Actually the author of this article is stating the truth and Pac fans hates the truth. Arum knows that Pac has no chance against Floyd and the truth is Floyd sells more PPV than Pac and it hurts u to the heart. Live with it Pac fans that Pac cannot and will never be paid the same as Floyd.

  • JACK FLORES says:

    HOW TO DETERMINE PPV: PLEASE READ AND GET AN IDEA

    WHO IS FLOYD MAYWEATHER TO WAIT FOR HIS FIGHT BOUT WITH MANNY PACQUIAO? HE DEMANDS SO MUCH WHO IS NOT EVEN THE REAL CHAMPION. IF ONE TRIES TO ASSESS THE BOXING RECORD AND ACHIEVEMENT OF BOTH, MAYWEATHER IS JUST A CHALLENGER TO MANNY PACQUIAO. FIRST HE HAS ALREADY RETIRED AND HE HAS TO RECLAIM HIS P4P RANK. THE CURRENT CHAMPION AND OFFICIALLY RECOGNIZED NO.1 P4P KING TODAY IN THE WORLD IS MANNY PACQUIAO. THIS IS A FACT AND EVERYBODY KNOWS IT. HE IS A 7 BELTS HOLDER IN 7 DIFFERENT WEIGHT DIVISIONS, A RECIPIENT OF MANY PLAQUES AND NUMEROUS BOXING AWARDS. A FIGHTER OF THE YEAR AND A FIGHTER OF THE DECADE. MANNY HAS A TOTAL RECORD OF 56 PROFESSIONAL FIGHT BOUTS WHEREAS MAYWEATHER HAS ONLY 41 WITH A DIFFERENCE OF 15 FIGHT BOUTS. MANNY IS THE MOST EXCITING FIGHTER WE EVER HAD IN OUR GENERATION. NONE OF THIS BELONGS TO FLOYD MAYWEATHER. MANNY PACQUIAO’S BOXING ACHIEVEMENT FAR EXCEEDS THAN THAT OF FLOYD MAYWEATHER’S. MY QUESTION IS, HOW COME HE IS DEMANDING A
    HIGHER PERCENTAGE OF THE POT MONEY AND THE RANDOM BLOOD TEST WHEN HE IS NOT THE REAL CHAMPION, BUT MANNY PACMAN? THE DRUG TEST CAN BE PERFORMED RIGHT AFTER THE FIGHT IN THE RING AND MANNY IS MORE THAN WILLING. MANNY PACQUIAO SHOULD INSTEAD ENJOY THE LION’S SHARE OF THE PURSE NOT MAYWEATHER. HE SHOULD DETHRONE PACQUIAO FIRST BEFORE HE CAN EVEN ASK FOR CONCESSION, BECAUSE HE IS NOT CURRENTLY RECOGNIZED NO.1 P4P IN THE WHOLE WORLD, BUT MANNY. I DO BELIEVE THAT THEIR FIGHT BOUT WOULD NOT MATERIALIZE ESPECIALLY IN MONEY SHARING RATIO IF THE 50/50 SPLIT SHARE IS NOT RESOLVED. HE SHOULD CHALLENGE MANNY’S PROMINENCE IN BOXING. THE 50/50 SHARING OF THE REVENUE IS TO ME NOT EVEN FAIR FOR MANNY. MAYWEATHER’S ONLY EDGE IS HIS UNBEATEN BOXING RECORD. I SALUTE AND PRAISE HIM FOR THIS WONDERFUL FEAT. BUT WHEN IT COMES TO NUMBER OF PROFESSIONAL FIGHT BOUTS, HE IS BEATEN BY MANNY AND OTHER RING ACHIEVEMENTS. THE PPV ISSUE IS TOTALLY DEPENDEDNT OF WHO IS THEIR
    RESPECTIVE OPPONENT IN THE RING. FLOYD MAYWEATHER CAN NEVER ALWAYS CLAIM THAT HE TOPS THE PPV BUYS. ONE BASIC EXAMPLE: MANNY PACQUIAO VS SERGIO MARTINEZ AND MAYWEATHER VS DAVID DIAZ. WHO DO YOU THINK HAS MORE PPV BUYS? DON’T ANSWER ME MAYWEATHER AGAIN. ANOTHER CLEAR EXAMPLE OF PAY PER VIEW. SHANE MOSLEY VS JOSHUA CLOTTEY AND MANNY PACQUIAO VS FLOYD MAYWEATHER. IN THIS EXAMPLE WHO IS HIGHER IN PPV? THE PPV ISSUE DEPENDS ON WHO IS THE OPPONENT OF THE FIGHTER IN THE RING. THE TRUE OUTCOME OF PPV CAN BE DETERMINED BY MATCHING THEM TO KNOWN TOUGH FIGHTERS. EXAMPLE: MANNY PACQUIAO VS SERGIO MARTINEZ AND FLOYD MAYWEATHER VS PAUL WILLIAMS AT 2 DIFFERENT FIGHT SCHEDULES EITHER IN COWBOYS STADIUM OR AT MGM GRAND IN LAS VEGAS ONLY TO FIND OUT WHO GAINS THE UPPERHAND IN PPV. THIS IS A FAIR PRESENTATION OF FACTS AND AN UNBIASED COMMENTARY. PLEASE DON’T GET ME WRONG. I ADMIRE AND EXTOL THESE TWO BEST FIGHTERS IN THE WORLD, MANNY PACQUIAO AND FLOYD MAYWEATHER. MAY
    THE BEST MAN WIN COME THE DUEL OF THE CENTURY WHEN ONE EMERGE VICTOR AND REIGN SUPREME.

    @ anonymous

    And David diaz and Clottey is world class compitetion. Plaese.

    What you stupid, ignorant, anoying, pactards don’t understand is Manny can’t beat Floyd. Period. The only reason it seems that way is because Arum from day 1 seen that Pacquiao had a fan base, has an exciting fighting style, and is a humble enough person to be famous to draw in ppv atractions. Arum knows Manny can’t beat Floyd. He just kept him protected enough to hype him up Fight OLD washed up, mentally damaged, fighters with a name and beat them. So it could seem like he’s so great when he’s not. He’s just protecting his investment. You ask why he won’t fight Mosley, Berto or Bradley. It’s because they will do the same thing Mayweather would do, but arum wont benifit. Arum just wants Floyd and Manny to fight so he can steal Manny’s hard earned money. Arum Knows after he cashes his big check and Manny’s embaresed, he’ll kick Pacquiao to the curb and build another hype job. Just like what golden boy promotions does with Khan. But ya’ll to dumb to relise the truth. Boxing is a business first. Remember that…….And it’s cool Ya’ll root for ya’ll hero, it truely is. But understand the business and the truth first.

    You don´t even know what you are talking about, you just make opinionated, dramatic comments backed up by nothing but air, you don´t even know that both Oscar and Hatton were coming off wins. You have proven you are a novice at best, go watch some tape and then maybe we can talk.

  • Be real says:

    @take the test

    Typical BS excuses, face the facts mate, Manny looked much better, it hurts to admit it doesn´t it? Hatton had one two fights prior to getting demolished by Manny and Oscar was also coming off of a win, it´s so sad and pathetic that you are so blind. These guys were great when Floyd fought them but not when Manny fought them? Typical Hypocritical Mayweather garbage. What will you do when Floyd retires instead of fighting Manny, cry yourself to sleep?

  • Be real says:

    @take the test

    Odd how Manny looked faster than Floyd against the same exact opponents in Oscar and Hatton, is that an optical illusion or could it be that he is just that fast? Against the same opponents Manny looked 10 times better,that´s a fact jack so stick that in your pipe and smoke it, no excuses, a beat down is a beatdown and that´s what Manny did to both and Floyd almost lost to Oscar and took forever to beat Hatton on an awkward punch……now let´s hear all of your bs excuses…

  • Be real says:

    @deadscared

    Floyd is talking retirement now so Manny may have won the fight without even stepping in the ring, the pressure is on FLoyd like never before and he is folding like a cheap deck of cards. My guess is that everything depends on how Manny does against Magarito. If Pac destroys Margarito with a vicious KO, Floyd will retire and never fight him. If Manny wins but takes a lot of punishment and is unable to KO margarito Floyd will gain confidence and take the fight. I really believe FLoyd is looking for somethign to boost his confidence and everything hinges on how Manny does and the reality is that Manny has set the bar VERY high with his last few fights (except agains the Wall (clottey) who refused to fight).

He´s a sucky midget or so good he has to be using drugs? If he is a sucky midget why would you demand a drug test for a midget?

  • The Truth says:

    @may4u

    Accusing someone of doing anything without proof is just wrong, those are just baseless accusations that do nothing but hurt the reputation of the person you are accusing, you just don´t do it and that´s why there is a standing lawsuite against the Mayweathers for those accusations, it´s just slander. Just saying someone is doing drugs because that´s your opinion is not good enough and in fact its not legal unless you can back it up. Manny has NEVER failed a drug test and he has been tested after every fight so for anyone to make that claim is absolutely ridiculous. The fact that anyone would believe a family of convicted felons and women beaters is pretty comical, believing anything the Mayweathers say is like believing a guy sitting on death row, what a joke!

  • May4u says:

    All Floyd need is one round to put Pac in the hospital for broken ribs, jaw, and nose. One round will be the end of Pac. Mayweather has proven time and time again against those who call him out. Marquez learned it the hard way. Where is he now? Trying to commit suicide. Well… that’s what happen when you fight Mayweather. He makes you look dumb and unprepared.

Heres the QUOTE that got this all started by Mayweather Sr. ” Anyone that moves up 7 weight class has to be using steriods, cause noone is that good.” Exactly quote from Mayweather Sr. HELLO Mayweather Jr. moved up that many weight class as well and is anyone questioning if his taking roids? His also the undeafeated one and Pac has losses in his career.

    This accusation just makes no sense at all. Pac has also and will pass all the test that’s been handed to him. Now that Pac has agreed to all the terms Mayweather wants, what does Mayweather do? Going on a vacation. Pathetic attempt to try and ruins someones career by accusing him of doing roids.

    Basically Mayweather got called out on his bluff.

    Retired on top of everyone. Floyd is genius and the greatest athlete in boxing history. He doesnt need to fight that asian midget . As far as I’m concern Pac just want in on the money that Floyd will generate in ppv. It was Floyd who made Pac who he is today. No one give a rat about that asian midget except to watch him suffer brutal defeat by the hand of the people’s champ. Floyd has made so much money he can buy the entire island of pilipin and turn it into a brothel, the only good any asian women are for is sex. nothing else. they cant cook, drive, raise kids, and they love my black c()ck. For realz.

  • kevy kev says:

  • Ulol says:

    where in boxing history that for a fight to happen, it should depend on how well the PPV buys show? This is ridiculous! This is all about one scared fighter refusing to sign the contract.

  • The Truth says:

    @Kevy Kev

    Very few people backed up Floyd on the drug testing issue because most people aren´t fools and can see through the nonsense. If Floyd cared about cleaning up the sport he would be lobbying the commission all day every day to add this style of drug testing to ALL fights, not just his fights. Also, get your facts straight before talking, it´s obvious your just trying to convince people of your points, Manny NEVER refused a drug test as you claim, he objected to the timeline, BIG difference there but the reality is that Floyd leaning towards retirement would be like Tyson retiring before fighting Holyfield, his lack of character and balls has been made more than evident.

  • kevy kev says:

    they needed a guy with the right body size to beat mayweather, pack is a built machine that keeps working and working but once you take away the oil it become sluggesh and starts to putt, putt. i dont care how bad you want a guy to LOSE, just make sure it fair, if manny was a undefeated phillo and we wanted him to lose badly, if it’s not done fair then i rather not see it. Boxing neither HBO wont get any more of my hard earned money

  • kevy kev says:

    Q i thought chad dawson was going to take the throne but now look what happened. boxing has only one major boxer with skills and you know who the guy is, americans has only one major boxing star and that’s floyd mayweather jr. Now ask yourself, what other american fighter that will represent boxing at it best, who? it a great pleasure to be in this era to witness floyd mayweather. people who live in the US is americans too, race has nothing to do with it, either you in or you out but sad to say that if he’s retiring then there is no reason to watch boxing until it developes a guy with boxing skills

  • cheese wiz says:

    @quisey

    If that interview is accurate and Floyd is leaning towards retirement it´s really too bad we will not get to see this fight happen and it speaks volumes about Floyd. It will really damage his legacy especially if Manny goes on to clean out the rest of the division while he´s retired, again. My guess is that Floyd will unretire when Manny retires.

  • Quisey says:

    @ Kevy Kev U got that right… They should’ve forced the issue. But instead they let it slide right pass em…..

  • kevy kev says:

    Q i believe that boxing as a whole didnt back mayweather up with this drug testing bizness but they will as soon as their ratings drop dramatically, they shouldve learned their lesson already when he came back the last time. pride will cause some of these guys to lose their women these dayz, it’s a newer day of age and if they cant put pride aside, they are going to mess things up. I wouldnt fight a guy either if he declines a drug test, manny card has been pulled and he wont accept the testing, which is the real issue not the test itself.

  • kevy kev says:

    ryan dunn yeah mosley was on the juice in the first and second fight but oscar still beat him the second time in my eyes. they was trying to build shane as a superstar instead of vernon forest and by god oscar shouldnt never shared the ring with hopkins, hopkins was tooo big for oscar and you clearly saw oscar getting koed from a body shot, oscar defintely wasnt ready

  • Quisey says:

    Ok this is cool and all…. But on Hot 97.1 (A radio station) Floyd Mayweather was talking to Angie Martinez about some things, and boxing just so happend to be one of them. She asked him so what’s up with you and Don King hanging together?

    Mayweather: Oh, well you know King and my family go way back and i’m thinking about buying a house in florida. You know it’s a no tax state.

    The next Question she ask: So are you going to be doing any business with him anytime soon?

    Mayweather: Umm you know at this point i can’t really say. Mabye to promote a few fights with King and Mayweather promotions.

    The next Question: So what’s going on with you and what’s the guy’s name…. Manny… Oh ok, Manny Pacquiao. That’s it right. Yeah Manny Pacquiao. What going on with that fight? Because i hear it’s supposed to be one of the bigest fights of all time or something like that.

    Mayweather: Rite now i’m not really thinking about boxing. Me and my manager and long time friend Lenard Ellerbe recently sat down and talked about my future in the sport and retiring is a big option right now. I did what i had to do in the sport of boxing, its been good to me, i’ve been good to it, umm i was the face of boxing for many years and i think it’s just time to hang up the gloves and enjoy life. You only get a chance to retire on top once. and, and…..

    She cuts him off.. So the fight isn’t going to happen?

    Mayweather: Like i said before i’ve been good to the sport of boxing and it’s time to step down and relax with my family. And get into other things outside of boxing.

    Angie Martinez: Ok thanks Floyd for stoping by.

    Mayweather: Thanks for having me.

    The interview should be on Youtube by next week it’s a radio staation in new york where i’m from. If Floyd really meant this, it’s a little dissapointing being a floyd fan and all. I hope he’s just saying that..

  • kevy kev says:

    If mayweather signs with don king he will most likely have to fight for don king for how many fights that’s recommended, i know it’s a catch and they will most likely want floyd to fight big guys which they believe will beat mayweather. mayweather might look even bigger in the near future dont become suprised, i dont kno 100 mill, gotta be a catch because may said he’s fighting atleast 4 more times before officially retiring but we cant gaurantee what will happen in the future. middle weight is the only division to acheive for him except bragging rights over pack but i will be very suprised if he had his father trainned him in the heavier weights. floyd sr. did a great job with oscar in his fight against ricardo m., oscar really brought it to him in that fight and it took shane 12 rounds to beat ricardo m., this shows you the type of talent oscar has but floyd sr. wasnt in oscar corner when he fought pack which clearly look suspicious to boxing fans like i.

    And while Floyd Sr. was training ODLH, he helped Oscar beat Gatti, Vargas, Sturm and Mayorga.

    However, he also led Oscar to losses against Mosley twice and Hopkins.

    So Floyd Sr. was good, but couldn’t prevent his fighter from losing 3 out of the 10 fights he was in Oscar’s corner for.

    You know?

    …ryan

  • Ryan Dunn says:

    @JesusJones

    True, and the only thing Mayweather would have to deal with is giving Don King a bigger cut than he’s given to any promoter before.

    Of course, Don King will promise him more money as a result, so we’ll see how many $500 lobsters it takes for Ol’ Frazzle Hair to close the deal.

  • keepitreal says:

    I don’t care if this fight does 100 ppv buys, if mayweather ends his career without fighting pacman it’ll haunt this dude the rest of his life. Long after he’s blown all his money, and lost what’s left of his relevance, the pacquiao question will always be the first and last question he’s asked about. Every single interview, every kid on the street, every disgruntle boxing fan, I mean dude’s already gettin BLASTED in every major media outlet in the country. It’ll make him sick, dude better find the ballz and quick. He ain’t gettin no younger, and the pac question ain’t goin no where no time soon. Worst of all pac’s got no heat no matter what happens, he’s got nothin to prove. He’s not the one runnin around saying he’s better then ali, and he’s also not the one lookin for every excuse under the sun NOT to do the fight. FLoyd better take some of his own advise and “step ur game up”.

  • Ryan Dunn says:

    “ryan it the fact that fighters these days arent getting trainned right these days.”

    - That might be part of it, but I don’t think it’s a big part. I think it has more to do with the way promoters find, hype, and handle the fighters.

    - From what I’ve read, Dawson is a great example of this. He was brought into the spotlight by his manager, and then totally betrayed him once he got a contract (money) from Shaw.

    - You can read about what Chad’s childhood mentor has to say about it on Marley’s Examiner site. It’s kinda sad.

    YOU SAID: “odlh was trainned by flod sr from the most part”

    - False. Floyd Sr. may have stayed with him for a while, but here are ODLH trainers in his career: Pat Burns, Al Stankie, Jesus Rivero, Emmanuel Steward (the Camacho win), Roberto Alcazar (the Trinidad loss), Floyd Sr., Freddie Roach and Nacho Barristan.

    Out of a 16 year career, Floyd Sr. was with Oscar for just under 6. Still they WERE together for a while, but it was after the Trinidad loss, and all of it was rebuilding Oscar, getting him back into the money.

    YOU SAID: “tyson was a coming forward hard hitting puncher with quickness but hbo is in boxing for a reason”

    - Showtime handled the pinnacle years for Mike Tyson, but you should have known that. Tyson was also the most exciting spectacle to watch in boxing, then, now, or ever probably.

    YOU SAID: “i believe that they have a large part of the may vs pack fight not happening, it will all come out, time will tell”

    - I believe that you are very off target here. The only thing HBO can do is blackball both teams and prevent the fight from happening on their network. That would also threaten the 24/7 series getting, and the chance to have HBO be the network of choice.

    …ryan

  • JesusJones says:

    @ Ryan

    Very true but Mayweather is also seeking something that GBP could not provide. Mayweather no longer wants to be the guy promoting himself. He needs someone who talks like him and would speak for him constantly rubbing his ego and letting the world know and him no longer looking like a jerk in doing so. A slight polish in the image so to speak and King can do all that. Only thing is that everyone knows Kings record, lol! Marketing himself as a brand outside of boxing will be difficult unless drastic changes are made. It may seem that it’s what he wants before he hangs the gloves as well.

  • Ryan Dunn says:

    @Jesus

    The only problem with future negotiations is that Pacquiao and Mayweather are BOTH very stubborn negotiators. Details are relayed to them as though they were the kings, whereas negotiating fights for boxers of lesser stature is more where the promoter simply runs the dealings, tells them where to sign and then moves on.

    If Floyd or Manny aren’t happy, they’ll speak out. And with Floyd running his promotional company, you better believe he wants to know where every guaranteed dollar and every PPV dollar is going.

    Where I agree with you is that Floyd may not be happy in how much GBP was able to go out and get. King and Arum can find money from outsiders, venues, advertisers, and so forth in ways I bet GBP simply cannot.

    But let’s be fair, GBP is not officially out of the picture yet.

    My opinion is that all this PPV will not play much in the next negotiations if Arum and King are running the promotions. It’s not going to matter much. Mayweather knows it and the big reason GBP is out the picture or strong armed for a nae recognition only but a small cut. That’s just the way it looks from a business stand point. This is just a matter of the pieces of the pie and who’s willing to get less in order for the big dogs to get more.

    @kevy

    Thanks for not throwing any insults there, I’ll try and do the same.

    YOU SAID: “hbo is playing the nice guy role until they build their status, then they will damn near run the sport of boxing”

    - I have to disagree with you, for the reasons I mentioned before. HBO profits from guys like me, who stay subscribed to their channel for the boxing, and maybe one other show (at the moment I don’t watch ANY of their shows, just boxing). Look at the quality of non-PPV boxing over the past few years and you’ll see it just feels dead.

    YOU SAID: “don king and bob arum is probably the only promoters out there that can control the sport, that could be the reason why there isnt a large magnitude fights out there right now”

    - Again, King and Arum have run the promotional game since Ali and Frasier were fighting. That isn’t the difference. Tyson and ODLH leaving the sport really hurt it, and an overall lack of superstars really.

    - Promoters are to blame. They have to work harder to groom stars into superstars the right way. They rush too many guys into big money fights mostly on HYPE and not on true grooming (the way trainers like to do). That’s why you’ll see a lot more discord between trainers and promoters in this day and age.

    - Respect for the fighter has gone down for promoters, who now control their roster as though they were pawn pieces to be played however they see fit.

    Furthermore, HBO wants big fights on their network, not on PPV, but the promoters don’t want to do it. So HBO is stuck with only showing “up-and-comer” fights for the most part. The Marquez vs. Diaz fights are happening less and less, and even the Marquez/Diaz rematch was on PPV now wasn’t it?

    Promoters only use HBO for as long as they need them. When the money gets too high, they go to PPV and then the promoters are the ones with the control.

    Dude, who are you to talk about someones reputation. What was this so called “contract” that Pacquiao supposedly agreed to everything Floyd wanted. It was signed and just waiting for Floyd’s signature. Turned out there was no contract at all.

    What obstacles did Floyd put up? Pacquiao made more ridiculas demands, demands never even heard of, not to mention some of the most stangest excuses for not taking random drug tests. Which should never be an issue (if your clean)
    ——————————————————
    1) who am i to talk about someone’s reputation? why not ask that question to yourself, when you throw drug issues on pacman without proof?
    2) about that contract thing, are you sure there was no prepared contract? ask arum and greenburg! don’t ask floyd for he is a proven liar. telling there was no negotiation when greenburg confirmed there was. telling police he didn’t know shooting suspect ocie harris when video shows they were long time acquaintances.
    3) demanding ridiculous unheard of OSDT-RBT is one obstacle. it so ridiculous, that demand was almost a pathetic joke.
    4) pacman has the right to refuse because that demand is not mandated by NSAC…and floyd, a mere challenger has no right to hijack NSAC’S job and responsibilities. it is beyond his capacities, being reportedly a high school drop out.
    5) pacman had strangest excuse for strangest demand…isn’t that fair?

  • Cheese Wiz says:

    @romero

    The split is not solely based on PPV numbers, you have to look at the big picture. Manny is and has been the #1 P4P fighter in the world for awhile now, Manny is the champion and Floyd is the challenger, Manny is the more popular fighter at the moment. Floyd is a big PPV draw but both Manny and Floyd have very good arguments for asking for a higher split, the fair split would be 50/50 however a lot depends on how well Manny performs against Margarito and how well the fight sells. If Manny obliterates Margarito and the fight sells more than expected Floyd will have to concede a 50/50 split, if Manny does any less than that Floyd can ask for the bigger split.

    YOU SAID: “do you think jerry jones made as good of a profit that he’d expected off of the fight with clottey?. jerry wanted this fight for one purpose before his friendship with arum was to help pay for that big azz stadium he just built, all-star was held there and now he’s hosting fights and whatever else, it’s all about money “the american way” piont blank. Please stop blocking people’s statements. this site only pays for people who works for it, we as internet bloggers dont care either way.”

    Let me guess a few things about you based on this post.

    1) You don’t like Pacquiao, nor anyone to do with him, especially his promoter.

    2) You’re not a Cowboys fan.

    3) You haven’t made much money, “the American way,” in your life yet.

    4) You’re not too good at deductive reasoning.

    Be honest, how well did I do? Because if you think Jerry Jones would consider hosting another Pacquiao fight if he felt the first one was lackluster, you’re crazy.

    Is Jones trying to book his stadium to earn money? What kind of an idiotic complaint is that. OF COURSE he is, wouldn’t you? Do you have any idea how many events go down at big stadiums and arenas around the country? Look up the events at the Staples Center for example.

    Can you at least find something logical to complain about?

    pacman is no fake champion…your idol is!!! he proclaimed that ALL ROADS LEADS TO FLOYD…only to close those roads when pacman had shown interest. your idol is fake when he said he is the GREATEST, only to scamper away when challenged by pacman.

    Mr Romero,
    pacman taking drugs? have you any proof? any hard evidence? FYI pacman has passed all drug test conducted by NSAC or any ageny.

  • Ryan Dunn says:

    @kevy pie

    They won’t spend money on the series if they don’t think it will repay itself, and by that I mean viewers of 24/7, in addition to the subsequent fight itself.

    Don’t be dim.

    That’s why you didn’t see a Pascal/Dawson series of 24/7, or the thousand other smaller fights, including Pacquiao/Clottey earlier this year.

  • zdrx says:

    Mr Romero,
    i’m not angry. i’m just amused at people seeing things (articles) and never see the reality that floyd’s reputation is a total wreck for his cowardice. FYI floyd is now the laughing of the boxing world.
    pacman pulled out of 2 negotiations? or was it floyd putting up obstacles and difficulties to sabotage the talks? pacman and arum had to pull out because TERRIFIED floyd had no intention to fight. they had to move on, because their world does not revolve around a coward.

  • kevy kev says:

    Ryan dunn your a liar just like bob promotions you know like hell pack is being promoted by hbo and bob because they invest money in this guy and if this fight dont sell like they want it then pack will be doomed

  • Ryan Dunn says:

    @MATT

    YOU SAID: “HBO is even going to help Pacquiao’s cause by putting together a four part Pacquiao-Margarito 24/7 series to help encourage boxing fans to purchase the fight on PPV. ”

    - Wrong. HBO doesn’t put money into a production it doesn’t think it will see back. Unless Arum is putting money into the production of the show, don’t pretend that it is a simple promotional tool for the favored fighter. That’s ignorant. And if it’s true, what does that say for Floyd?

    No, you have it backwards. HBO uses the fighters to gain viewership. There is a side-plot to drive up interest in the sport (and it’s very effective) but since when have we become pessimists about turning people onto boxing?

    YOU SAID: “HBO has to be angling to try and help Pacquiao get some decent PPV buys, because this seems like an awful choice for an HBO 24/7 series.”

    Is that because Floyd Mayweather isn’t in it? You don’t think Pacquiao is interesting because he isn’t swearing and disrespecting his opponent 24/7? YOu don’t think his rise to congressman and life in the Philippines is interesting? You don’t think hearing the other side of the plaster scandal, and getting to know Margarito, the villain, for better or worse, is interesting? You don’t think Freddie Roach is interesting? You don’t think Manny’s temperament about Floyd is worth exploring?

    Well you’re entitled to your opinion, I guess.

    @DAWN

    You don’t think this fight will break 500k buys? Really??

    I bet you it will break 1M buys. If Manny can do 750k buys and sekk 50,000 tickets to fight Clottey (who?) then you better believe the fans will pay to see Manny fight and beat Margarito. There will be Hispanic viewers to support Antonio, some will be watching to see the man who cheated get beat, and then there will be people who love to watch Pacquiao fight.

  • yous_wisely says:

    I’m not buying you’re angle on this article.

    I cant believe an educated author or writer would possibly describe hearing and interpreter or reading a lot of subtitles as strange or frustrating.

    Whats wrong with you man? Do you think only English speaking athletes are interesting? You cant read a subtitle and connect what the speaker is communicating? That kind of attitude really robs you of the opportunity to be inspired by any non English speaking person in the world, i feel sorry for you.

    I felt inspired watching Nacho Berenstein and Marquez on 24/7, and hearing what they had to say wrether or not it was translated.

    I would expect that kind of talk from Random hill billy on a comment forum, but not from a writer or journalist. I guess you cant watch foreign films either?

  • fred38 says:

    mayweather/mosley ppv cannot be compared with pacquiao/clottey! In the former, both are americans, while the latter are both non americans. Most ppv buys came from the US! Mayweather has indeed no intention to fight Pacquiao that’s why he is imposing unacceptable conditions!

  • zdrx says:

    Manny sucks

    Arum is cheapening the product known as Pac with this fight and it will come back to haunt him during negotiations.I always felt Bob never wanted Manny to fight Floyd and all his actions thus far having proven me right.Areal promoter would have said to Manny-take the test up until the fight!I will get you a 50/50 split and in return you will have to be tested randomly leading up to the fight.If Manny complained Arum should have said listen Mayweather pulls in the bigger numbers and he is willing to split it down the middle as long as you give in to testing
    ——————————————-

    here’s another shameless wanna be promoter. the whole world knows that it was floyd who ran away from a fight, and to him it was arum who doesn’t want the fight. LOL. he even got the nerve to have a formula, as if it could entice a TERRIFIED FLOYD to fight pacman. a simple solution from a simple mind. that’s what this fools got for worshiping an (@$$#0/&%*/><

  • Curt20 says:

    The only way this fight is good is if marg can use his wraps lol I can’t see him hurting manny without the wraps.. he’s not the same fighter without the wraps..

  • Curt20 says:

    This fight is a waste Arum should’ve picked a better opponent especially for a ppv fight.. I knew margarito would be pacquiao next opponent, because why would margarito turn down the sergio martinez offer?? I think this fight was made well before that july deadline.. I think margarito should’ve had a few fights before being given this opportunity.

  • zdrx says:

    a certain idiot wrote this:

    Everyone is starting to listen, everyone is opening their eyes and realizing that Pacquiao is a fake champion who only looks good because he fights ring worn, catchweight, drained fighters. The world knows that pacquiao is NOT that good.

    That is rediculous another pT Barnum statement,What this fight bring in, has no wieght on what a Pac ,Floyd would bring in and everyone wants to see that one.They are saying millions buy this one and we will sell you another better one.What a circus.

  • kevy kev says:

    Meg i can understand that but if your only fighting head first opponents what should everyone expect

  • Shut up Meg says:

    Thing is Kev both have power to do it but Pcaman tries to knock them out.

  • kevy kev says:

    If pack doesnt knock out margacheato, then he should be labeled as a boring fighter, he stopped 2 fighters that NO body thought would beat pack because of the damages they’ve already suffered in their last fight and from the highlights i’ve seen when pack fought clottey, lol it seemed as if clottey was made out of rubber because pack’s punches was bouncing off of clottey lol. So what so exciting about pack, hell there is alot of fighters got knock outs on their record pack’s last ko’s were hatton and cotto, WOW.

  • mayweather fan says:

    so for this reason i dn’t think floyd will fight until it is atleast 70-30 to him. It may sound like a huge amount, but for floyd to do 1.4 million buys on mosley alone is incredible. However I also think pacquiao would loose against floyd, never has he dissapointed me and i doubt this time he will neither.

  • Anonymous says:

    pac doesnt need to fight floyd… there are more nigg$rs to beat up.

  • mayweather fan says:

    I LOVE MANNY PACQUIAO. but i am a huge mayweather fan, i mean not just floyd the whole camp haha…they are individual cartoon characters of themselves, which is why they make such a fun family to watch on HBO 24/7. But the idea of having margerito a discrased fighter and a phillipino who is a bit shy infront of the camera as the two leading actors seems ridiculous in itself. Floyd is a money machine and is also the second highest payed athlete behind tiger woods, so for pacquiao to want 50/50 sounds pritty stupid. Pacquiao is great dn’t get me wrong and if home country all bought PPV he would win by a huge margine but let us face it, that is not the case here in america.

  • kevy kev says:

    On the 4 part 24/7 episodes I wonder, Is they going to have floyd on it also? because I dont think 1 pacfan ordered may vs mosley fight. let pac sell his own fights.

  • cashflow79 says:

    Smart move on MAY’s part. Break your opponent outside the ring and then finish him off inside. The best fighters in history have always done this. This Margo/Pac fight will be final move on PAC’s part. If it doesnt do well, checkmate.

  • Shut up Meg says:

    Way too much emphasis on PPV figures and not enough on actually making a good fight.

    These PPV numbers only really relate to America and Americans love Floyd Mayweather and are alot less willing to spend money on foreigners.

    Outside of America its Pacman thats the big pull cuz hes exciting not boring and knocks people out.

    If it was all down to Mayweather hed be making in every fight what hed make in a fight v Pacman, but thats not happening, it will because they are facing each other that it will make as much money as it does.

    Ofcourse it will also depend on whether or not Floyd has grown a pair of balls.

  • cashflow79 says:

    well, I look at it like this: I think MAY and PAC are already fighting but just outside of the ring (and MAY is winning). It’s well known that PAC’s dealing with his money is very poor (given the election and other things); it’s getting to be where he needs a MAYWEATHER fight to avoid going broke. MAY is counting on this (possibly); this will make PAC have to agree to the blood testing protocols (by the way, I dont think PAC is on HgH or anything at all!) and this proposed $100 Mil deal with Don King only makes PAC situation more desperate because he’s definitely not getting that kind of deal with Top Rank. Trust me from experience, as a man, if your finances are not up to par, it’s hard to stay focused on or perform at your best.

  • zdrx says:

    pacman-cotto fight made 1.250M hits. floyd-marquez ppv was “officially announced” as 1M hits (even though there were reports it only made 431,355 buys). so officially, pacman made more hits than floyd last autumn. yet HIGHER grossing pacman agreed to 50/50 share with LESSER grossing floyd.

  • roberto says:

    @tank embracing foul language r works of desperate character running out of steam, you level is low, if u can’t avoid using this tool, well then i won’t stooped down to ur level. It might make me same.

  • tank says:

    roberto- you are officially a fool come on man if floyd is a drug user why would he be willing to do the most stringent drug test available and it was manny who is still refusing to take the most stringent tests he wants a cut off.
    If you mean recreational drugs then again you are an idiot as floyd doesn’t use that stuff it has been confirmed many times he doesn’t drink alcohol or use drugs he lives a healthy life but pac doesn’t

  • tank says:

    Ash- The clottey fight made the sales it did becuase of the hype behind the mayweather-pacquiao non fight it was the drama that attracted interest the mayweather-mosley fight generated 1.4 million buys becuase people thought this will be the fight floyd could potentially lose they came to see floyd lose not mosley fight. Hence the 1.4 million floyd puts bums on seats not mosley thats why mosleys PPVS are generally poor before he fought floyd manny does not deserve a 50-50 split for 2 reasons first of all Floyd has in his last 7 fights including against common opponents (hatton,de la hoya and Marquez) has made double what manny has made and secoundly if the roles were reversed and manny makes the most money there would be no chance in hell manny will accept anything less than 60% he said so himself after the Cotto fight he wants more money when floyd made 1 million buys against Marquez then pacquiaos team were talking about equal split manny is not a saint he wants money and would have been the o0ne asking for a uneven split had he made the most money and I bet you will be defending him

  • wasting away in Margaritoville says:

    Some of you people have zero idea of what you are talking about.
    Roberto- Pac did not defeat JMM two times….the first fight was a draw….in which Pac allowed JMM to overcome three knockdowns in the first round to get back into the fight. Pac won the second fight with JMM…..but again….it was another controversial decision.
    Ash- So now Shane Mosely is a PPV draw??……..so will you be buying his next PPV fight? And didnt Freddie Roach decline a fight with Mosely because he said that there was not enough money in that fight for Team Pac, but opted for a fight with Clottey?
    And for all of you guys that want to say that PPV doent matter…….then tell us why did Pac and Floyd opt to fight Oscar De La Hoya when he was basically at the end of his career???? If you guys dont think that it was because of the chance to not only beat a big named fighter, but also because of the biggest payday for them ever……then, again you guys are sadly mistaken. And if PPV dont mean anything to you Pac fans…………..then all of those symblolic belts and titles that Pac has been collecting dont mean squat either.

  • tank says:

    Roberto you say manny will fight for free? What are you his manager? You pactards have been exposed for many months you have been talking about pacquiao fighting for his fans and how he will fight for free to make the fight then he doesn’t want a 40 % share of the fight he wants 50-50 so how is that free? Floyd wants more money pacquiao was a while ago demanding more money he is demanding more money in the Margacheato fight he almost nixed the Hatton fight with demands of more money and he wanted more money in the Cotto fight so stop with your BS manny wants money just like everyone else he will not fight for free

  • roberto says:

    Yes Manny don’t eat hot dog because he is a real MAN, how about you ?

  • Mayweather Senior says:

    who is taking a year off? pac is fighting in nov and floyd just fought a few months ago! you managed to say he is taking a year off when you dont have a clue , then you at the end you say years!! floyd will fight soon dont worry, and it wont be against a beaten up guy, it will be a real fight that people actually want to see..and they will actually talk about the fight itself..

    DrugUser Floyd does not have the quality to ask for more against the p4p, even then the issue is not the money Pacqauio will fight Floyd for FREE, he can grab it all and shoved it to his lungs. He needs it more than Manny, so he can buy plenty of illegal Drugs to inject himself. Main issue which Floydiot keeps on being reminded, when is your coward idol will sign the contract to fight the p4p King, FOTD, FOTY etct. now, he needs to have bonding with Don king because GBP can no longer cover his excuses, after Don King, who ?

    @realboxingfan – i admire you for predicting the outcome of the pac – floyd fight, but your idol has no balls in fighting manny….. do u still idolize him?… for me, floyd has an advantage against manny but he’s just don’t want to take the risk in fighting him. ‘coz if he losses his “zero” then he has no career at all….. that’s his LAST ACE. AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE HE’LL AVOID MANNY AT ALL COST.

  • NINJA says:

    Crackman will fall way way short of 1 Million PPV buys. He just is not a PPV attraction outside of the Filipino community.

    HE must accept that he will get a 40% split if he truly wants a fight with Floyd Mayweather Jr. And that’s at the very best! It could potentially be much less. IMHO he deserves about 25% because that is all he can generate on his own.

    We will see…

    Clottey is an unknown fighter with virtually no fans or financial clout, it’s hardly a surprise that a fight against Shane Mosley (an American hall of fame fighter), would achieve higher PPV numbers!
    So, in fact, there’s every reason to argue that Pacquiao should get half of the money!
    You don’t add 2 and 2 together and end with 5, odd?…although it may be, a little objectivity and originality can add life to already tired subject matter!

    @roberto says- nobody says Cotto is a fisherman but Cotto, s team refused to fight Floyd twice in 2005 at jnr welterweight or at welterweight. If Floyd,s trademark is to fight aged fighters but at least he fights them before Pac eg Hatton and Oscar. About SSM , Pac,s team refused to fight Mosley except on catchweight. Pac fans u have an illusion that Floyd is scared of Pac u are the ones dreaming.

  • roberto says:

    Cotto is no fisherman or an aged fighter, that’s why Floyd will not fight him. Floyds trademark is to fight an aged fighter, rusted fighter and washed out fighters. He’s running scared of Pacman because he knows it will brutally end his boxing career, as for the Floydiots keep on dreaming this is the only thing you’ve got.

  • Eric says:

    PPV numbers are nonsense! Sign the contract and fight! That is what Pacquiao wants, that is not Mayweather has in mind.

  • tich says:

    @vivimos- Floyd never ran away from Cotto but Cotto team refused twice in 2005 to fight Floyd. U should be pressurising Arum to give Pac good fights and a fair deal instead of bashing Floyd. U are the ones who let Pac down coz u do not fight his coz.

  • roberto says:

    Yes Margarito will shock the world by hitting the canvass once the Manila Ice and Pacific Storm leather hits his brain out. The only thing that will make the Floydiots feel better is to hallucinate a prediction that is way way off the mark. Margarito nor Mayweather, they are all in one boat, will be victims of Pacquiao slaughtering. Meantime, the DrugUser Floyd slaves must keep on pushing their ugly coward master to fight the p4p king, FOTD, FOTY etc etc. Until you can’t bring him to the ring no amount of EXCUSES will be honored, all your reasons are useless and FAKE.

  • tich says:

    Pac fans dont want to hear the truth and in my opinion are the ones who let Pac down, by not buying his fights and they also need to pressurise Arum to offer Pac a fair deal and give him good fights. If his fight with Margarito does not sell then he has no basis of demanding 50/50 with Floyd.

  • jasz says:

    If we keep on taking sides between the two who should get the bigger PPV share, we only add to their already massive egos, hence their obstinacy regarding this issue.

    IMHO both fighters must agree to the ff: 50/50 share on PPV, 2-weeks cutoff for the blood test, no catch weight, and no more other BS demands.

  • roberto says:

    DrugUser Floyd has to seek shelter with Don King the greatest fixer of boxing of all time. GBP wants to put him in the ring with the p4p King and he thinks this is the only way out. As for Don he is now in the process of twisting the coward issue by way of covering his new found friend’s disgusting behavior. He will try to make people believe his kindness by tapping the back of the head of his new baby and telling the boxing world, ‘ hey, don’t disturb our lullaby ‘ we are having a very quiet bonding here, no issues about boxing leave my boy alone. Such a very stupid move by King, he has to make it very very delicate in breaking the ice, otherwise, his new found colored boy might run again, this time in hell.

  • Mayweather>pacquiao says:

    Articles pointless for the simple fact that margarito will shock the world when he KO’s pacquiao. Therefore mayweather/pacquiao in 2011 wont happen. We will see mayweather/margarito or a pacquiao/margarito rematch. Sorry to burst ur bubble pactards but its gonna happen. Margarito’s natural size and constant pressure will make manny VERY uncomfortable. Freddie Roach and company will panic between rounds and bark out orders but none of it will matter. After about 10 rounds of insane pressure margarito will put tiny manny on the canvas twice in one round and will secure the victory and teabag manny’s face while he’s unconsious. Once again, sorry pactards, all streaks must come to an end!

  • jasz says:

    Some people are criticizing that there are just to many paper titles and sanctioning bodies out there (WBC, WBA, IBF, WBO, IBA, IBO, etc.) plus the Ring Magazine world champion title and Pound-for-Pound rankings. Now, we are adding another title to it: PPV King. We (boxing fans) should be faulted for this also because we are inadvertently sucked into the PPV numbers game: who is the best PPV draw and therefore should get the higher PPV percentage cut. C’mon, let’s not add more to the confusion and craziness, but instead be a positive force in making sure that the fight everyone wants to see happens: Mayweather vs Pacquiao.

  • tank says:

    Thats not true that Manny wants an equal share he wanted a bigger share when he assumed he was the biggest money draw when he got put back in place with the impressive numbers by floyd manny backtracked and desired an equal share so basically if he beats floyds numbers he will demand more money and his fans will defend his decision.

  • come on says:

    It all depends on Floyd if he is not scared to fight Manny.

  • VivimosComiendoNalgasMejicanas says:

    Matt you are dumb! It is because of the sorry ass opponent! Mayweather never did as good in numbers as Pacquiao-cotto! We all know this! Maywether needs to stop runnin scared and fight him or even fight Cotto who he been runnin from for years now!
