What us American fans NEED to realize, N. America does not make you a great just because you were born here. I'd say Paquiao gets the best pay day. He is the man to beat right now, and with his fans, he can put butts in seats. Barerra is #2 for the seats reason, but is past his prime. The sun is setting on his career, I hope he saved money. Marquez, sorry, but he does not stike me as a great. I'd MAYBE watch his fight, but NEVER pay for it. Under that context, he definately should not take a huge pay day. Because I would not pay money for that.

Clearly the rematch between Marquez and Paquiao is the fight the boxing world wants to see, but a rematch with Maarquea and Barrera is definately a draw. Barrara has an established fan base that wasn't too happy with Nady or the decsion so either way Marquez is in the drivers seat to a big payday. The only dud would be Barrara/Paquiao, Manny so dominated Barrara the first fight, there is no need for another.

I think Manny should have the highest purse. People come to see him fight. He is the most exciting boxer in the world. He deserves at LEAST 65% of the purse against anyone he faces.
