So how are people suddenly saying that Floyd will dictate the terms if he were to fight Pacquiao? Pacquiao is still the cash cow of boxing. I understand that Floyd more than likely will win a bout with Pacquiao, that doesn't change that Pacquiao is more of a draw than Floyd is. PPV #s while important don't change the fact that Pacquiao is easily more recognizable world wide. He has a better story and more impressive victories as of recent. He fights coming up, Floyd is always getting accused of fighting down.
I honestly fell asleep during some of the middle rounds.
Did Pac Clottey have a 24/7?
Hard to do a 24/7 with two fighters whose native languages aren't english I'm afraid.
Both fights just proved to us why we need Mayweather - PacMan to happen.
floyd doesn't dictate jack shit. if pac doesn't like the deal he's entitled to walk. floyd gotta compromise if he wants the money. pac could walk away from the sport right now and be happy.

The highlight of the Pac-Clottey fight was Jim L. saying BANG BANG BANG BANG.
The highlight of Mayweather-Mosley fight was Mayweather getting rocked.
I like technical skill so the fight last night was entertaining to me. The Pac-Clottey fight was much more boring because of Clottey not engaging. Almost seemed like the fight was fixed. He did hit Pac with some good clean shots though.
honestly, i actually enjoyed the fight last night. sure, shane gassed out at round 4 but can't really blame that on pbf. it's pretty rare to see floyd engage his opponents but last night, he was more aggressive compared to his other recent fights.
Whether you like Floyd or not, the bottom line is that against common opponents, Floyd has owned Pac in ppv numbers, and last nights show probably did DOUBLE the buys (or damn near) that Pac-Clottey did. And in this business, the numbers are all that really matters when it comes to who is "dictating the terms"..............
But, in Pac defense Shane is way a bigger name than Clottey. Floyd should do double or damn near than what Pac did with Clottey. I don't think is fair to compare Floyd-Shane to Pac-Clottey... A better comparison would be Floyd-Shane to Pac-Cotto. And, Floyd-Shane probably out sold that one too.
I was entertained by both fights.
That's fine...I like watching Pacquiao fight but the Clottey fight was nothing...Clottey didn't wanna get caught and seemed to just give up once he realized Pac was too fast...go out on your shield...
Something's wrong with you if you thought this fight wasn't better than Pac-Clottey...
QFT.
I was entertained by both fights.
I like point fighting at times but c'mon..... Pac-Clottey was the single most boring match I have ever watched. I rather have watched GSP wrestle for 25 minutes than see Pac-Clottey.

something's also wrong with buddy, if he thinks "PPV numbers don't matter."
where do some of these posters come from? :dunno:
