I read somewhere that allegedly there were some defections going on among cable and satellite carriers that threatened the bottom line of the fight.
According to this, the money is fine.
And the pie may be even larger than we think when all is said and done.
What I found most interesting is a "side bet" built right into the purse split.
Yeah, Floyd will still get 60% and Manny 40% of everything...except 20 million being set aside.
That 20 million, the winner gets 10.2 million, the loser 9.8.
