:lol1: I love reading post like this, for the simple fact that I love seeing how much the people who say they do not care about ppv, show how much they really care about PPv #'s by sitting down and responding to a thread where they should have no interest in. if you guys who say you do not care so much, Why are you here????
The thread title is not misleading?
The opening post is clear as a sunny day.
What made people like you post in a thread you care nothing about?
:thinking:
I'll wait.:lol1:
Fair enough i knew you would ask that..but its almost unavoidable these days since the influx fmj fans (specially since the mosley fight) has plagued the front page of nsb with threads about ppv buys this cash cow that...ive never seen a fanbase that cared so passionately about their heroes finances ..granted i mainly lurk in the training and nutritional section (due to the monotony of the threads and flame wars between pac and floyd fans..both irrational looking from the outside in)i guess to answer your question i posted here to maybe get some enlightenment as to why a grown man ( assuming you guys are of age and have jobs) would not only care so much for but feel overjoyed about another man finances if your not getting a cut. Love the fighter and the sport by all means! As a businessman i see no sense in this..is it a cultural thing maybe? shouldnt we be pushing for boxing to back on network tv.?? Do you enjoy being ripped off??:feedback:
I wonder what will be people excuses when Mayweather vs. Shane Mosley outsells all of Pacquiao's PPV!!!
Just curious, We know this next PPV will be all on Mayweather's back.
In the words of Freddie Roach.
"Shane is not a draw,Cotto is a bigger draw than Mosley."
So when Mayweather vs. Mosley does better than Pacquiao vs. Cotto
what will the reasoning be???
When Mayweather vs. Mosley does better than Pacquiao vs. De la hoya
what will the reasoning be???
When Mayweather vs. Mosley does better than Pacquiao vs. Hatton
what will the reasoning be???
When Mayweather vs. Mosley does better than any Pacquiao PPV fight
what will the reasoning be???
Will some of guys still hold on to the myth that Pacquiao is still the cash cow in the sport??
I am taking any and all bets that Mayweather vs. Shane Mosley will beat any ppv fight Pacquiao has been invovled in.
no hate just trying too stack my points up... damn u reed:damnit:
what the **** is wrong with u people!? unless you are personally making profit off mayweather's (or any other fighters) ppv sales there is no reason to get exited about another mans money..unless you r just a cheerleader (in which case why dont you guys just go to their fan club site?)I just cant understand this frame of mind..maybe cuz im a hardworking grown man the only thing we should be pushing for is these fights to go on free t.v :dunno: not for these over indulging pampered boxers (that goes for huggers of any fighter but specially floyd)to keep charging more and more for some overhyped ppv and then you guys rejoyce cuz they managed to con millions to fork out their hard earned money...The only thing that makes me happy about it is that they are continiously embarrasing those mma nimrods who kept saying boxing was dead..but on the real when i tell my grandchildren about this unique epoch in boxing history,i will not be talking about ppv sales..how embarrasing you guys are..:sucks:
no i mentioned that because i was a latino kid sorrounded by grown ass skinheads and couldnt see out of one eye, in a situation where u couldnt breathe and most people were being carried out by the bouncers..and to other asshole who replied to me being basically a little kid in the front section of a pantera show is certainly not dancing..and ive been in combat sports nearly all my life...
after watching this i must admit silva does have some boxing skills (say that of a pretty good club fighter)once hes in there for real i imagine it will be a different story..specially if he gets in a batlle with rjj. he got hit and it seems stunned a few too many times by the gym gatekeeper..whats his boxing record anyway? oh and btw it is obvious he mimics roy's style..must be his idol for real..
man i got a cut much worse that fool in a moshpit back in 01 (yes i couldnt see) but i still stuck it out and rocked the **** out till the show ended and i was only 16 surrounded by big ass drunk skinheads..so yes nate you are a Quiter!
try replacing at least 2 meals a day with lean cuisines(or anything with similarily low calories)lift light to regular weights at high reps and run @LEAST 1 to 1 1/2 miles everyday...worked for me! then again i often train in new mexico at over 5000 feet elevation so...all b.s aside though i lost almost 50lbs in year!
Floyd vs Mosley/Cotto would outdo that fight too, its down to the opponent i mean if Marquez/Floyd gets anywhere near Cott/PAC. Well it just proves Floyd is very good draw given him and Marquez was hyped as a mismatch and between 2 counter punchers..
all you guys understimate the amount of mexicans who bought the fight(im assuming alot of you are east coasters)In cali where i am to N.mexico where my dad is to texas where my cousins live..all the same in the latin (mainly mexican) community everyone was watching this fight some way or the other! i am not mexican soy perunao..but ill admit and so does any census that they are the majority of the latinos (whatever that means) in this country are mexican decent and dont forget latinos will be the majority soon if not already so yah marquez(mexican) vs floyd (every1 wants to see if he finally gets his ass kicked) = 800k and above buys at least! :boxing:
You need to calm the hell down with that ish! This is a d@mn forum where peepz post from all around the world. When there is a big fight coming up you will see fans of each boxer post some good and bad sh!t. No need to call out one race! You just showed everyone that you are also one of the annoying ones on this forum with that post!
i am a big enough man (not the arreola kinda big) to admit maybe i shouldnt have put it that way..i mean i was trying point that cotto fans (not necessarily the people of p.r.) were being disrespectful. I was particularily pissed when i saw some of the comments in this thread..and its not just this thread were ive seen the p.ricans start throwing little racist remarks bout the pacman..im not asian either so im not defending their remarks either. tbh im a eutopian i dont even believe in race but whatever just wanted to clear that up hope i didnt offend no1!
Watch your mouth man. Racist fool.

both sides should watch it..
great vid....nice to see all the classy cotto fans and their responses
lol i mostly lurk and am no1s nuthugger or hater but as neutral boxing fan i must say (with no hate toward my latin bros or any1 else) the ricans(cotto stans) have slowly but overwhelmingly become the most annoying and disrespectful groupies on here..maybe its that most of em are annoying wigers in real so that immaturity comes out in their post..and yes i understand theres always exceptions to the rule so spare me any lecture..like i said from an neutral point of view looking in they take my p4p most annoyin nuthuggers!:bottle:
it seems that with every fight pacmans training camps and overall life become more chaotic..however when he gets down to business hes so damn intense it doesn't seem to matter,he always pulls through! iv'e learned my lesson betting against the pacman and now even when he faces his biggest challenge (again) and all signs point to cotto takin this more seriously i would still put my money on the pacman! btw im new here so before i have some ****ing ricans hating on me ill state that i am not pinoy or a pactard..just a long time boxing fan!

lol this is by far the funniest thread of the year!:hail:
and a sign of how ugly(funny for me) things are gonna get between the pactards and flomos! If you thought the ricans were bad...
Those things in your avatar are awesome!!! What are they called again? My brothers wife who is part rican cooks that shit up sometimes, not as of late though since she is now against eating meats :(
Most latin countries have a version of these (empanadas) but they originated in spain! The best ones are from south american countries like Argentina or Peru..ive had em all!
ima def make a becks or stella run before the fight but my my flavor of the week is this beer from New Zealand called Steinlager..i highly recommend it pop 1 open and it smells like the beach!http://www.beerbasics.com/BEERS/Tasting_Notes/Steinlager_New_Zealand_files/image001.jpg
who created MMA?? dumbass...
Where or who created mma has no significance! the demographic is still the same! did america invent pizza or racism? no..but its still embraced by pop culture..i didnt just say this to spite you, I really have traveled alot thru america(due to my business) and i really have seen these patterns..middle america and trashy places have embraced this mma culture and its the same people who eat chain restaurant goo and watch reality t.v..meanwhile i didnt hear a peep bout mma when i was in N.Y and certain parts of cali.(inland empire is pretty big on it big surprise there) Boxing got it right by changing the queensbury rules and keepin it stand up..let me ask u this when u were in high school(assuming youve grown out of this phase,maybe im assuming too much)and a fight broke out were you exited to see fists flying action or did u honestly hope to see a grappling fest? be honest bro..and lol at replyin to my long thought out post byasking some irrelevant question followed by "dumbass" why dont you throw in "owned" while youre at it!
Reminds me of racism in America. People hating for no reason..only because they were ignorant and scared. Funny to come on to a boxing site to talk boxing and find yourself in a MMA hate thread...its pathetic. Dont worry boxing fans. the UFC and boxing in America can co exist. Just like blacks and whites they will one day get along. Props to the true boxing fans who appreciate Mixed Martial Arts.
lol at this guy coming to a boxing forum to spew this shit..and lol at the concept that theres some reverse racism fueling the rejection of mma by boxing fans! READ between the lines homey racism and ignorance fueled the explosion of mma period! like ive said in other posts ive traveled quite a bit through this wonderful country this past couple years and i now know the telling sign of a racist or ignorant(to the minorities that r all into it) is a ****ing tap out shirt..they dont wear white hoods no more they wear ****ing tap out shirts while blasting rap music(made by some minority they hate) out of their skin sticker covered pickup! The new white hope sells! they couldnt find one (at least not american) in boxing so they created mma! props to dana! ranking in the bucks built on racism and decreased attenion spans and btw im an ex high shcool varsity wrestler! i know the dedication and skills it takes,but i also know its not pleasing to the eye to see...thats why almost no1 came to our meets but everyone went to the football games! So whats next buddy? let me guess u will demand obama's birth certificate? cuz most tea baggers are mma fans!
I believe that 1 glass of wine in the evening,is said to work wonders for the heart!!
i wish i could drink just 1 glass of wine...maybe 1 day when i grow up lol
