Hatton vs Mayweather = 1 million buys
Hatton vs Pacman = 850k buys
Same with the Oscar fight.. Pac isnt even close
Floyd has just as many haters as fans, who pay to see him lose lol
People just hate Floyd so much that they wont even be fair. How can Pac be the bigger draw if Floyd had more PPV buys then Pac with Oscar, Hatton, and you know he also will top him in the JMM catagory. Thats it, case closed. The numbers speak for themselves. If you add in the Gatti fight then Floyd is again on top. He's clearly made more money then Pac so how is Pac the bigger draw? He isnt, bottom line. Until he proves it then he's not

That is true, but Pac is close.
Floyd v Pac will be the biggest ever I think.

Pac vs Hatton did closer to 2 million buys
Floyd fans like to think he has more haters that outnumbers everyone elses fans. Truth is, ESPN, CNN, sky sports, the global media is all over pacs nuts right now. They might have previously mentioned Floyd in the past, but nothing compared to the large scale attention Manny is getting right now, and that hurts them. The little that do know of Floyd, hate him.
For the last time, no one bought either the Pac's or Mayweather's fights with Hatton on PPV in America because of Ricky Hatton. NO ONE CARES ABOUT RICKY HATTON IN AMERICA.
There is no base to this extrapolated comment. I bought the fight, and I am Latino. And so did a few other folks on US soil. I am certain many more did.
But thats not the point. We are trying to determine who grabs the bigger crowd among Manny and Floyd. Taking DLH/Hatton out of the equation. What has Mayweathers/Manny ppv buys bin? That is if he has any.
You're forgetting the it did in the UK, which took it well past Floyd/Hatton
Mayweather/Hatton did 915,000 US and 1.4m UK = 2.315m.
Mayweather/De La Hoya did 2.4m US
HBO estimating around 850k US for Pacquiao/Hatton and Arum said it should do 1.6m-2m combined US/UK
Pacquiao/De La Hoya 1.25m
Pacquiao is the most exciting fighter but yes Floyd is still the bigger name. I don't know how many PPV Pacquiao/Marquez did_If I remember right around 400k) but Floyd's will be much better as well. I'm guessing at least 600k. Not enough time to hype it for max PPV numbers. But lets not forget the 100k Manny did against Diaz
When the Pacman/Mayweather fight happens, the "main attraction and draw" in this fight will definitely be the Pacman. The excitement he brings to boxing is unsurpassed and has attracted a huge following throughout the world. JAT :wave:
I definitely agree with you !!!
How about I say, I admire his talents, his accomplishments at 135 and below, and as a fan of the sport, reserve the right to be critical of fighters who clearly have the skills to take on the best but choose not to?
Is that ok with you?
Should you be a fan of the sport instead of a fighter,
you will agree with me.
Aight, better said baby..respect.:cool2:

I agree with you !!!!
Yea, Floyd had nothing to do with it.. Get real
He is only a factor, but clearly his popularity is no where near Hatton/Oscar.
The crowd alone is a huge give away, of a boxers popularity.
i love how you guys compare dlh and hatton fites of both fighters when hatton and dlh were the draws in both ..plus manny and hatton arnt even in there own country ! if they had ppv in philipines n ppl could afford it manny would sell 5 millions buysss or somthin crazy
Am just tired of all this Mayweather hate...just admit you hate him and come July 18th you will hate him even more...

Where is the ownage?
910k doesn't look anything like
1 million.
In fact, 910k is closer to 850k than it is to 1 mil.
You attended public or private school?

Wrong. 850K was the initial estimate. The final total was 910K.
To the cholo that once again credits DLH for Mayweather's popularity, uhh, yo can do the exact same thing for Pacman.

DLH certainly helped Pacquaios fanbase grow.
But due Mannys fights with the Mexican legends in this era,
he already had a strong fanbase to begin with.
So, no, nobody is denying that DLH helped Manny reach another level of superstardom. We're just saying that Manny has capitalized on it whereas Floyd fumbled it.
Why are you crying again?
