Mayweather convinced 340,000 households to PAY to watch him fight BALDOMIR.

People refused to watch Miguel for FREE.


Sergei Lyakovich vs Shannon Briggs was a alternative option on showtime during the Mayweather/Baldomir PPV. Just something to consider.

Baldomir was coming off two big wins over Judah and Gatti and was the recognized champion at the weight. Gomez was a mismatch. I don't know how HBO approved that fight.

And, look at Mayweather's history. Until he fought Gatti, most of his televised fights were terrible and so were the attendance numbers, even in his own hometown.

. So let me ask you a question, you think that Floyd's numbers would had been the same after the Baldomir fight if he would have faced someone OTHER than DLH?[/b]

Now you're going into a whole different direction comparing old PPV's. Of course he wouldn't have done 2.5 million buys against anybody else.

Neither would have Oscar had he fought anybody else other then Floyd.

I didn't edit the original post fish, where I said Lyakovich vs Briggs.

There goes your theory.

yeah you didnt edit.........just how floyd didnt really loose to castillo in the first fight right?

Its unfair to compare Mayweather vs. Baldomir to Cotto vs Gomez. You know DAMN well casual fans arent gonna know if a fights boring or not because they buy the HYPE. You know DAMN well casual fans dont know who is ducking or any gossip **** that goes on. Further more..

1. Floyd was put on the map by his fight with Arturo Gatti when Gatti was peaking at HIS popularity

2. Floyd's second fight after that was with Zab Judah and was a PPV fight and both were carrying momentum in the boxing world, especially Floyd after the Gatti fight

3. The Showtime card had ALOT to do with the ratings for the simple fact that Antonio Tarver was on the card. The same Antonio Tarver that had PPV fights with Bernard Hopkins AND Roy Jones Jr. in HIS recent previous fights.

Casual fans dont know what we know about the sport. They only know what promoters and fighters sell them. They bought and attended Mayweather vs. Baldomir THINKING, EXPECTING, to see some excitement and everything but that happened. Fans were booing, walking out and the commentators ****ting on Floyd during and after the fight didnt help either. So let me ask you a question, you think that Floyd's numbers would had been the same after the Baldomir fight if he would have faced someone OTHER than DLH?

Hmmm I don't see how you made a point about anything besides suggesting that Gomez - Cotto would have done better had it done a Countdown/Preview........which is a poor excuse for a Free HBO fight.

But ok..........goodbye.

so after hundreds of thousands of people tuned expecting to see mayweather pull out another Gatti, Judah type performance to find themselves barely watching a dull, stale fight where the crowd was booing and leaving before the fight even finished and Larry Merchant practically telling Floyd he was boring, he still would have done 2.5 mill with anyone besides DLH?

now i think you're just lying for argument's sake.

It wouldn't do more then what Oscar-Tito did. I provided solid facts.

But keep playing the cheerleader and get some pompons while you're at it.
