Comments Thread For: Pacquiao's Adviser on Showtime, 'Limited' HBO, Marquez

[John Connor]

No matter what network they put it on . Showtime puts on way better boxing shows than hbo

Lol put that crack pipe down.... Hbo is on another level, the commentary, the picture quality, the 24/7 > knockoff version...

You don't serve Shasta at a party, you have coke... This is a big fight and it belongs on hbo

Koncz is such an ignorant fool in this interview. Can't believe he's the one who has to sit down face-to-face with Manny to discuss over opponents.

[Mr. Philadel]

The way that his adviser, Michael Koncz, sees it, eight-division king Manny Pacquiao has become a promotional juggernaut the likes of which the boxing world has not witnessed since Muhammad Ali.

Not sure if HBO wanted to lose 1.3-1.4 Million PPV buys to showtime.

This is what logical thinking looks like. Floyd fans take note.

Marquez can't draw on PPV. This fight will draw less than 1 million on PPV, just like the Pac/Mosley fight. It has been almost two weeks since the Pac/Mosley fight and Showtime has yet to release the PPV numbers. That tells me that the Pac/Mosley fight was not as big a draw as people think and Arum claimed. It probably drew only about 600 or 700,000 at best; and it damn sure didn't draw the 1.2 million or more that Arum claims. Pac/Marquez will do better, but it won't be more than 1 million PPVs.

I wrote another post before I saw your note. Pacquaio has never drawn 1.3 million PPVs, not even against De La Hoya. What the hell makes you think he will draw 1.3-1.4 million against a guy who can't draw flies. You *******s should stop drinking the Kool-Aid that Bob Arum and Koncz keeping trying to feed you. It has been almost two weeks since the Pac/Mosley fight and Showtime has not released the numbers yet. That tells me that the fight did not draw big and probably drew less than the 700,000 that Pac drew against Joshua Clottey, in spite of what Bob "I was lying yesterday; today I am telling the truth" claims.

If Exposure > Money than put it on CBS and stream it for free on the internet.

Clearly Money > Exposure. That's fine Koncz but don't BS us...
