Floyd's PPV Numbers Vs Pac-EM?

[neils7147933]

Wrong! That's why I posted and ask what the numbers was for Floyd and Judah and the answer is that it also made 350K buys. Floyd and Judah are both superstars like Pac and Morales. They are comparable....Judah coming off a loss fight to Baldomir and Morales lost 3 fights before the grand finale.
Hatton-Floyd would be comparable to Pac-MAB. The point here is though welterweights are suppose to be more popular than super featherweights it's not the case here coz they are about equal which makes it astonishing.

I actually think Pac-Marquez could end up getting more buys than EM3 because the last fight was a draw and JMM just had a decisive KO victory.

Pac-Morales III was similar to Tarver-Jones III in that they were both big names, but everyone was pretty sure which guy was going to win

Marquez doesn't have a fan base like Morales and Barrera does. It will make money in PPV but Pac-MAB is way enormous.

Ummm... That's my point! Baldomir was a nobody and Floyd did 325k buys. Let Pac or Morales fight an unknown (I used Soto as an example) and let's see what kind of numbers they draw. If Mayweather was fighting another true superstar like Hatton, that would do 500k buys minimum and the DLH fight is expected to do better than DLH-Trinidad...

LOL he couldnt even get pass the the 400s against more popular american fighter like judah and gatti.

like it or not baldomir is not a nobody after he beat judah and gatti on televised bout.

What exactly made Judah a superstar? It was his first PPV and he had done nothing before that to prove he was a major draw. There are only a handful of true superstars in the sport. DLH, Trinidad, Hopkins, etc. Judah is nowhere near that level. Would a superstar take $100k to fight Cory Spinks in his backyard?

In your earlier post, you said Baldomir IS a nobody and now you're saying the exact opposite. Are you ******ed or just plain ******?

I think Marquez won the first fight, at least the last 11 rounds. Pac has unfinished business with Marquez - I would order that for sure.

I waited for the Morales III replay

I agree that Marquez isn't a big star now - that's why he's bouncing around networks and fighting in Indonesia - but I think the Jerdaeng and Jaca fights combined with the timing of the Pacquiao fight and the backstory hyped by Charles, Steward, and Kellerman will help things - plus people who caught the Pac replay may order. Manny's popularity in the US is probably going to go up.

I've been a fan since he was the on the undercard of Tyson-Lewis...

the Pac-EM fight numbers wasnt bad when compared to Baldo-PBF since they dint do as much promotional work for Pac-Em3 as they did for PBF-Baldo. i'd seen the "Pretty Risky" comercials for the baldo fight on Spiketv a few times but i never seen a commercial for the Pac-EM3 fight. so for a Lower weight fight it was great.

you also got to consider the profit at the gate. pac/em were nearly sold out.

while baldo vs. floyd only did 9 thousand

When did greatness become a popularity contest? So because DLH does 1 million buys against Mayorga, he should be P4P number 1 today?

you missed the point..no one is saying that!
