If Manny vs Floyd happened in november would it outsell Oscar v Floyd?

If Manny comes back and kills Rios, which he will, and than beats the Marquez/Bradley winner, it could still sell a ton and be very anticipated in the Fall 2014 for Manny's last fight. I've thought this as well, i hope manny somehow gets away from arum and strikes a deal with mayweather cause it's the ultimate fight for the fans.

It wouldn't come close. Pacquiao has lost his air of invincibility so it would just be ppv between to highly established fighters. It'd do well (1.4-1.8 mil well) but it wouldn't sniff 2.4 mil (was it that no. ?). You say that now, but you're not anticipating that feeling a week or a few days before a mega fight. People will do spontaneous things, and order the fight just for the historical value of it, plus I'm sure by fight week, the hype will get to people by then. The hype for this fight, even now, would be borderline insane.

Yes , it will

Nope. Will do excelent numbers but no longer more than dlh

Right now, anywhere between 1.6 mil - 1.9 mil If Pacquiao destroys Rios, and beats another decent contender (this is where Floyd will again want no part of him though) 2 mil - 2.6 mil

I really doubt that a boxing fight will break 2 million sales ever again in the U.S.

No it wouldn't. They left it too long. Now everyone thinks Manny's done and they know it'd be easy work for Floyd.

I think if the fight happened in May 2010, it would've gone close to 3 million buys. If it happens now, It'll do about 2 million.

Nope. No future fight will ever come close to the U.S. PPV record. Why? The current availability of open and private streams in comparison to back then. The only market in the world that can realistically surpass it is in China.

no but maybe it would do 2 million?

Naaah, probably 1.8 mil

The best I think it will do is 1.7 or something like that. It's lost to much steam.

yes, despite what people say that fight will still do millions

I wonder how it feels to know that you've squandered a once in a lifetime payday. Floyd and Pac will be haunted by this once they're retired and realize their bank accounts are $60-$80 million smaller than they should be.

I think it could've been broken in 2011, but if it happens from here on out, it wouldn't even come close.

That Oscar vs Mayweather Record is very SAFE! Likely won't be broken anytime soon, just too much free streams now, seems like even the networks have given up trying to take down streams

I don't think it ever would have beaten the Oscar/Mayweather fight.

If Manny beats Guerrero after Rios, the Mayweather fight is back on track
