This dude is hilarious, no hate. He thinks he is king of PPV when it comes to boxing and says he broke the PPV record b/c he beat Oscar. But if this is true he should be able to fight Cotto and draw them same numbers just b/c he is in the ring, right? I mean if he is the reason people tune in it shouldn't matter if Cotto has a recognizable name. Does Floyd think its a coincidence that his two biggest paydays and biggest PPV numbers came from two fighters who have more fans than any other fighter in the world? Maybe he is just the WWE PPV King and should stick to a sport solely for entertainment!!!!
kto the fool that said floyd vs judah did big numbers:
floyd vs judah 374k
floyd vs baldo 325k
floyd vs gatti 365k
heres the proof:
http://sports.espn.go.com/sports/boxing/news/story?id=2657809
besides dlh and hatton pbf was never a big draw, dlh made pbf point blank.
cotto vs mosey did 300k+ so rite know at only 27 cotto is were pbf was before dlh so all he needs is a dlh fight to make him a big draw like pbf is now.
when floyd fights someone else besides dlh and hatton and does 1,000,000 ppv buys or more then he'll be ppv king cuz he did it on the strength of his own name like dlh been doing it.
If he is such the draw he says he is he shouldn't have to wait for Cotto to make a bigger name for himself, he should be able to draw all them fans just to watch him, considering his ego is so big and he is the greatest ever shouldn't people tune into his fights like Tyson in the 80's?
Oscar opened doors for Mayweather, Mayweather was fighting the likes of Baldomir, Gatti, Corley and Judah before DLH and he was fighting on HBO!!!! Cotto can at least get PPV w/o DLH or Hatton, hell his Mosley fight was PPV and his Margarito/Cintron fight is supposed to be PPV. Alls I am saying is Mayweather was lower on the scale when he got his chance against DLH then Cotto is right now for his chance against Floyd. Floyd talks like he beat the man to be the man, but he beat a fighter who Floyd himself discredits as an over the hill out of prime fighter, so how good of a win is it? If Floyd was really the face of boxing and cared for sport that made him millions he would help shine light on the younger prime fighters like Cotto or Margarito and open up doors for boxing and the welterweight division. Otherwise he can keep defloyding the fans of there money and make millions fighting the easiest fights possible. Do Floyd fans at least see what he is doing to the sport? All the hype behind him and people who don't watch boxing on the regular buy his fights against DLH or Hatton and see a borefest and think man boxing still sucks, it will never be the same and so on and so on. FLOYD OPEN UP DOORS THAT WERE OPENED UP FOR YOU, IF YOU LOSE OH WELL, YOU ARE ONLY HUMAN!!!!

before floyd fought oscar he was selling as much as cotto is now.cotto and oscar would do very good in my oppinion oscars biggest fight besides floyd was against the puerto rican star trinidad, so why wouldn't a cotto oscar fight do as much as oscar floyd
1. people dont want to see cotto lose like they want to see floyd lose.
2. floyd is the best fighter in the world.
3. floyd had the family saga with his dad being oscars trainer(that was the original hype to the fight)
4. Cotto doesnt have floyd charisma and character.

Floyd IS the new PPV King.
Numbers speak for themselves. Everyone want's to point at Oscar and Ricky but tell me 1 other fighter that they could have chosen to fight and had it even come close or surpass the Mayweather fight. There is nobody.
Thus, Floyd Is the new PPV King.
numbers speak for themselves?
Oscar De La hoya/Mayorga = 900,000K
Oscar De La hoya/Mayweahter = 2.5 Mill
Mayweather/De La Hoya = 2.5 Mill
Mayweather/Hatton = 800,000K
Sorry homay, DLH is still the Golden Boy when it comes to PPV buys.
Floyd IS the new PPV King.

some people will refuse to see this soley because they hate floyd. but deep down inside they know it is what it is!:fing02:
2501 ahh you've ran out of ideas huh? everytime you try to argue with me you post stupid shit non-factual, biased, hater remarks. maybe you should try watching ufc since you hate floyd so much and floyd is the face of boxing right now.

YOU CAN SAY WHAT YOU WANT! FLOYD CAN FIGHT ONCE A YEAR IF HE WANTS AND IN THAT ONE FIGHT YOU WILL SEE WHY HE IS THE BEST FIGHTER IN THE WORLD. THE AMOUNT OF TIMES YOU FIGHT DOESNT EQUAL TO HOW GOOD YOU AREL LOL. FLOYD IS ALREADY PROVEN. HE HAS BEEN IN THIS SPORT MANY YEARS LONGER THEN COTTO. FLOYD DOESNT HAVE TO PROVE SHIT ANYMORE. HE HAS ALREADY SHOWN HE IS THE BEST FIGHTER IN THE WORLD. ALL THESE BOXERS JUST WANT A CHANCE TO BEAT HIM AND MORE IMPORTANTLY A BIG PAYDAY BECAUSE THATS WHAT FLOYD BRINGS NOW A BIG PAYDAY TO THE OPPONENT. HE IS THE NEW DLH!

If you were a lawyer and you state that on your defense that judah was the man after being HUMILIATED by no skill Baldomir, You wouldve got laughed at for your line of defense, Cottos now the man, Cottos a good not great draw and Floyds vacationing ,Cotto has to keep on fighting so Cotto is gonna fight a stiff in tune up to Margarito while Floyd is i dont doing what in wrestling-acting, dancing with stars, or rapping in his rap company, Floyd not fighting anyone and is not trying to fight anyone until next year, most likely

judah was the man? wtf? you dont even know the history of the man you idolize you fool. Baldo was the man idiot.
if your dumb ass would pay attention. I said pre baldi judah was the man the leanear champion, undisputed in ww. Floyd and judah were on a collision course they both wanted to fight each other. Judah lost his belts so floyd when and took his old belts and since everyone still concidered judah the fighter to beat the fight everyone wanted to see and was still in demand by the people. your an idiot and this has nothing to do with floyd not being a draw. Baldi was really never the man. he just beat the man and held the wbc thats the only reason floyd faught him. If baldi didnt have the wbc even with the win over judah floyd would have never fought him.
you obviously dont get it. take your floyd hater glasses off. Unlike a lot of you people saying floyd avoids fighters. Zab was the most dangerous fighter in ww. Floyd wanted to fight him zab was the king of ww undisputed, lenear champion. floyd wanted to fight him. they were on a collision course. floyd wanted the zabs belts plain and simple no other fighter was important. The couple fights he took pre judah were to get him to judah to unify the ww division! Look at floyd now. i think the man knows how to handle his business. You really think fighters are scared of each other huh?? lol

What's funny is that a bunch of people "claim" that the best fighter in the world is scared of facing someone else. Are you REALLY that naive? Seriously who would believe that crock of shit other than a Floydboy.

if floyd wanted to unify the ww titles why doesn't he?that i know of floyd only has 1 of the 4 major titles

Well, I would say that De La Hoya is the biggest PPV seller today, but Mayweather is certainly up there. Without him, the first fight wouldn't have done so well, but I still think De La Hoya would've sold more with some other opponent in comparison to if Mayweather had another opponent.
dude at that time floyd and zab were on a collision course to unify and crown someone the ww king! why would he go off track just to please another guy calling his name. like mayweather told margarito. This is a business sit back watch and learn how this business is ran.
judah was the ww king before he lost to baldomir the only reason baldomir did not get all 3 belts is because he did not pay sanctioning fees so by the time floyd and zab were going to fight, baldomir was cosidered ww king.how were floyd and zab trying to unify if floyd didn't have a belt?
Prior to that, the offer was still there, the offer was there since pre judah,
Floyd could easily just change his mind on this collision course and fought Margarito for by way more far more money than a fight vs zab,
Ill sit back and Floyd run his business by claiming he can draw fights with any fighter , then claim if its vs Margarito or someone like him, Floyd acknowledges he cant draw ppvs, ill sit back and watch Floyd run his business
