ALL time boxing cash cow: DLH or Floyd?

I read somewhere that Oscar has made more money than any other boxer in history. oscar did make more money than any other boxer in history

WE have to only look at the PPV generation and I think Oscar still has the edge but with Floyd having big money possible fights with Khan, Pacquiao, Martinez, Cotto, and Canelo in the future he might be the PPV king of all time. IMO Tyson is still the biggest thing to happen to boxing and will always be remembered more than any other fighter besides possibly Ali. But back to Oscar and Floyd, it's a very intriguing discussion. One must also note that Floyd wouldn't be half the draw he is today had he not fought Oscar (same goes for Manny). But Floyd is doing insane numbers and will likely shatter their record when/if he fights Pacquiao. Another thing worth noting is that nobody ever recognized Oscar as the best (just very popular and usually noted as one of the best) and he lost his 0 when he fought Tito, yet he still put up crazy numbers. Floyd relies a lot on him being the best, being undefeated, and people wanting to see him lose. If you compare them, they're polar opposites when it comes to the way they have marketed their careers.

The real question should be DLH or Pac and even then its not a fair question because DLH's career is finished whereas Pac isn't even in his prime yet. At the age of 32 (Pac's age) his total PPV's sold sh*t on both Floyds and Oscars Pac is gonna sell over 2 million PPV's this year and it will be his 3rd year in a row and p.s. Pac is fighting in a recession. De la hoya was fighting when the economy was the best it ever was

To be fair though, ODH Trinidad no 24/7 ODH Floyd 24/7 Is 24/7 the x-factor? I don't know...How much PPV sells does it boost? Not sure. But, I feel that it should be pointed out though. Funny when you talk about greatness things become a lot less clear, excuses start to pop up: Well back then, they didn't have this and that. Greatness is subjective and really pointless to discuss, there's no way to be objective. Floyd is either past DLH in ppv #s or very soon will be.

But, I feel that it should be pointed out though. there should be no debate on how much 24/7 boosts ppv sales..... and plus, a big reason why floyd's ppv numbers are so high is cuz A LOT of people buy to see him get KTFO, but thats just another business strategy of his..... gotta give it to him for smarts on that note...

FYI, ODH Trinidad 1.4 mil PPV ODH floyd 2.4 mil ppv Gotta give floyd some credit here. he is #3 or #4 behind Tysson, ODH, Holyfield. He can make #1 if he fights Manny.

Oscar didn't need 24/7 to sell fights. He could fight a lamp shade and do at least a million. Oscar/Floyd only did that amount because of Oscar. Floyd never came close to that number again. Oscar is teh king. FYI, ODH Trinidad 1.4 mil PPV ODH floyd 2.4 mil ppv Gotta give floyd some credit here. he is #3 or #4 behind Tysson, ODH, Holyfield. He can make #1 if he fights Manny.

Overall Oscar is. Because, not only Could Oscar filled the seats by himself, he could also sell the PPV. No matter who he fought. But, just PPV star wise, I might give the edge to Floyd. But, then again different eras. And, 24/7 is the x-factor and how much really does it help sell the PPV. Oscar did it without it form all his PPV, except for 2. Not sure if Floyd could do it as well without it agreed.... it was much harder in that time without 24/7 in such to sell that much and still get a ton of ppv numbers....

There was another thread saying how Floyd's Gate was the 14th highest all-time in Nevada, but if you read the whole list lets say out of 15 DLH was in about 10 of the all-time High. Not sure if this topic has been discussed before, but who has been the biggest cash cow, Floyd or DLH? Really? ODH is the man, until floyd fights MAnny and Canelo then floyd becomes the man.
