the higher ranked fighter should get the bigger cut, what if some garbage fighter with 50 losses had tons of fans.
Either way, Pacquiao only got popular after the DLH fight, it's unfair to match him up when he fought Marquez back then.
They drew the same numbers with Hatton, Mayweather only got a few more because it wasn't during the recession. I've run into many more people who know who Pacquiao is than Mayweather.
its because floyd is an american while pac is a filipino, its natural for floyd to gain more numbers... its sad! but anyway, pac is the better fighter!
remove pacs scrotum from your mouth
I am noticing more and more that hardcore fans of simply one fighter just come and go on this board. I can recall countless names of people who have been a fan of a fighter on here, but when that fighter is inactive or they retire, they are no longer here. When you put all your focus into one fighter, you cant look at anything with any level of objectivity, to the point where you may make a claim to critisize someone, then turn around and commit the exact same crime. Its become frustrating to even read this place right now since we have topics like this one.
The point of this topic is
"Im going to laugh at the amount of pay per view buys that floyd/jmm does because i hope it will do less than pac/jmm so i can have more leverage to argue on this messageboard about who possibly might be more popular so i can post in negotiation threads with this piece of evidence, to argue my fav fighters case, even though i will see not one penny of it in the end."
You basically want "mr boat buyer" and Jmm, two of boxings best, to have a bad show, so it can elevate your own fighter? I would never wish that on any fighter except margarito. Why would i want a fighters success to be impeded? Get a fukking life.
Wrong my friend. I made this as a joke thread. I was on some thread earlier this morning where some pachaks and floyd stans were arguing about floyd having generated far more ppv buys against common opponents than Pacquiao and saying that the floyd/jmm fight will do triple what Pac/jmm 2 does in ppv buys.
I fully expect Floyd/Jmm to do triple or quadruple what Pac/Jmm 2 did. But given what both Pac and Jmm have achieved since that fight and that this floyd fight being a welterweight fight...its a stupid and unreasonable comparison and is no way definitive proof that floyd is a bigger draw against a common opponent.
I can provide proof with Floyds numbers with DLH and RH compared with Manny's.
Pretty much. On the otherhand who gives a **** about the bigger draw? That shit doesn't matter once they step into that ring together.
Someone made a thread yesterday about how the Mayweather/JMM fight hasnt sold out and they were saying they hope it doesnt sell out because it would mean Mayweather isnt a draw and pacquiao would have to take the major share of the PPV.
My question is what has that got to do with us??? the fight is a month away and people want the fight to fail why?? just to laugh at one person??? are peoples lives that affected by what Mayweather says or does for people to want boxing to go down??
I would pesonally love to see a Mayweather/Pacquiao fight and i dont care how the fight gets made as long as we get to see 2 of the biggest fighters of now getting in the ring together squaring off, None of us would see a single pence of what either fighter would get so wy bother?
Some of these guys have no girl or wife, therefore, no son to live vicariously through.
A fighter fills that need.

Thats why you have to decipher who is here with an agenda, and who is here to actually talk about the sport. Once you do figure out who is you, its easier to decide which posts to reply to.
"written by the CL, produced by the PR"
Yep, That exactly what i do...especially with all the same recycled thread and some certain poster.

That isnt the problem, i dont mind fans, even the hardcore ones, but i do mind discussions like this. I dont expect everyone to love boxing to the extent that say, you and me do, take for instance, YOU, I disagree with you alot, on alot of things, but i agree with you also, there is a good medium between the two, but never in my life would i see you, or would you see me, making a topic like this just to elevate a fighter i liked. Its just stupid.

nothing wrong with that.
if one fighter can get them to like the sport , eventually they'll start liking other people.

all any real boxing fans should care about is the best fighting the best, not ppv numbers
Thank you, All i see is who deserves to take 60% blah blah blah
please.........
floyd stans use the ppv numbers to excuse floyd not fighting marg and cotto.
Oh definitely they do but the thread wasnt related to that, It was related to the Mayweather-Pacquiao-JMM triangle, The mayweather stans arent different from the Mayweather Haters imo.
I think the people that cares more about the PPV number are the people that call out the Floyd stans, If the stans then show them the number they would start calling them names..Fukk the numbers i just want to see them fight but we already have threads on here on how Mayweather/JMM tickets arent selling with one month to go like thats suppose to be a good thing for boxing.
what a dumb ass. :nonono:
are you gonna go to the parade?
the city is talking about not wanting to hold one.......
I was telling my wife last night that I was, but then I read this mornings article.
So unless, JB springs up the money for it, its probably not gonna happen.
"all around the world for the fun, all around the world for the fun"
pelon you believe that soir guy who said the lakers 5 titles don't mean as much as the bulls titles?
Yea, thats when I figured he was just trolling.
Especially when he claims Kareem has only 5.5 titles.
At that point I just refuse to feed them.
