FUN FACTS TO CONSIDER ABOUT P.P.V's and other fighters...
compare to Floyd..
Floyd vs. Hatton = 850,000 Buys= $47 million in pay-per-view revenue.
The fight was the highest-grossing PPV fight ever that didn't feature a heavyweight or a Oscar De La Hoya.
GOOGLE ANY OF THESE FIGHTS AND ALL THESE NUMBERS WILL BE THE OFFICAL NUMBERS
Pacquaio vs. Big Names
Pacquaio vs. Morales 350,000 PPV
Pacquiao vs. Morales II- 355,000 buys
PACQUIAO vs. BARRERA 350,000 PPV
Pacquaio vs. Marquez I 360,000 PPV
Pacquaio vs. MarquezII 400,000 buys
Roy Jones vs. Big Names
Roy Jones Jr vs. Felix Trinidad 500,000 PPV = $25 million
Roy Jones Jr vs. John Ruiz 602,000 PPV = $26.5 million
Roy Jones Jr vs. Tarver I 302,000 PPV
Roy Jones Jr vs. Tarver II 382,000 PPV
Roy Jones Jr vs. Tarver III 402,000 PPV
Felix Trinidad vs. Big Names Besides Oscar:
Felix Trinidad vs. Roy Jones 500,000 PPV
Felix Trinidad vs. Winky Wright 510,000 buys
Felix Trinidad vs. Bernard Hopkins 475,000 buys
Felix Trinidad vs. Ricardo Mayorga 420,000 buys
Felix Trinidad vs. Fernando Vargas 560,000 buys
Bernard Hopkins vs. Big Names Beside's Oscar
Bernard Hopkins vs. Felix Trinidad 475,000 Buys
Bernard Hopkins vs. Jermain Taylor I 370,000 Buys
Bernard Hopkins vs. Jermain Taylor II 410,000 Buys
Bernard Hopkins vs. Antonio Tarver 330,000 Buys
Bernard Hopkins vs. Winky Wright 305,000 Buys
Shane Mosley vs. Big Names Beside's Oscar
Shane Mosley vs. Fernando Vargas 420,000 Buys
Shane Mosley vs. Fernando Vargas II 350,000 buys
Shane Mosley vs. Miguel Cotto 340,000 buys
Miguel Cotto
Miguel Cotto vs. Shane Mosely 340,000 buys
Miguel Cotto vs. Zab Judah 220,000 Buys
THE REAL POINT...
Floyd fighting a Nobody is almost the equivalent to any fight the 3rd Biggest Name in Boxing (Pacquaio) is fighting in and that is with Big Names
Floyd vs. No Name Fighter with no U.S exposure (T.V):
Floyd vs.Carlos Baldomir 325,000 buys = 16.3 Million
"We're very pleased with Mayweather's PPV performance, especially given that Baldomir had little previous exposure in the US," HBO PPV's Mark Taffet said.
Baldomir's only previous U.S. exposure came in his January upset of Judah to win the welterweight title and his July knockout of Gatti in his first defense.
"These numbers are very reflective of the numbers generated by Oscar when he did not have the well-known name challenger in the other corner, which obviously speaks volumes of Floyd's star power," Goossen said.
Oscar vs. No Names with No U.S Exposure (T.V):
M.A. Gonzalez(1/97) 345,000 buys = $12.1 million
6 fights in the United States before the fight...
Felix Sturm (6/04) 380,000 buys = $19.0 million
This is after Oscar already had 3 Mega Fights over 925,000 P.P.V buys...
Trinidad, Fernando Vargas, Shane Mosley
This also after Oscar already had 4 fights of P.P.V over 550,000 P.P.V buys
Hector Camacho, Ike Quartey, J.C Chavez II, Shane Mosley,
So how do you do only 380,000 after all of that exposure in MEGA FIGHTS...?
And this is Oscar De La Hoya..... So that shows you how much ExposURe in the United States Affect P.P.V sales...
Floyd fighting a Nobody(Baldomir) is almost the equivalent to and better than
Shane Mosley vs. Fernando Vargas II 350,000 buys
Shane Mosley vs. Miguel Cotto 340,000 buys
Bernard Hopkins vs. Antonio Tarver 330,000 Buys
Bernard Hopkins vs. Winky Wright 305,000 Buys
Roy Jones Jr vs. Tarver I 302,000 PPV
Miguel Cotto vs. zab Judah 225,000 PPV
and Floyd fighting a marginal Name Like Judah is bigger than all these fights..
Pacquaio vs. Morales 350,000 PPV
PACQUIAO vs. BARRERA 350,000 PPV
Pacquaio vs. Marquez I 360,000 PPV
Morales/Pacquiao III - 350,000 buys
Morales/Pacquiao II - 355,000 buys
Shane Mosley vs. Fernando Vargas II 350,000 buys
Shane Mosley vs. Miguel Cotto 340,000 buys
Bernard Hopkins vs. Antonio Tarver 330,000 Buys
Bernard Hopkins vs. Winky Wright 305,000 Buys
Roy Jones Jr vs. Tarver I 302,000 PPV
Miguel Cotto vs. zab Judah 225,000 PPV
Bernard Hopkins vs. Jermain Taylor I 370,000 Buys
And Judah is barely a marginal Name...
So Floyd vs. Judah = 375,000 buys So you could say that was all Floyd with a Marginal name fighter is better than 2/5 of the most Highest Selling P.P,V EVER not including a HeavyWeight or Oscar..
And if you Say Judah was superstar before the Mayweather Fight how..??
Because What exactly makes Judah a superstar or a big name? that 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, Jones. Mayweather , and Pacquiao
Judah is and was nowhere near that level before and After. Would a superstar take $100k to fight Cory Spinks fighting in his own backyard..?
So lets put things into perspective when talking about Floyd...Comment

If you really put things into perspective you wouldn't be comparing Mayweather's PPVs to Cotto's since Mayweather has been around longer in the game and had time to develop recognition.Originally posted by Horus View PostFUN FACTS TO CONSIDER ABOUT P.P.V's and other fighters...

So lets put things into perspective when talking about Floyd...
No one in the United States knew hwo Felix Sturm was at the time yet it still did great numbers and it was a tune up fight for Bernard Hopkins so in no way was it a "MEGA FIGHT"
And it's funny you would compare Pacquiao fights to Mayweathers since it's a much lower division that doesn't get much exposure or recognition in the United States.
Btw no one bought Vargas Mosley II because everyone knew Vargas was old and the first got stopped because he looked like Quazi.
Why you always trying to tweak facts to make them seem like ****s your way? You know scientifically a **** scientist proved blacks where dumber then whites? It's called manipulation.Comment

What facts did i manipulate.?Originally posted by Sin City View Post
All those numbers are legit.
If I cant compare Pacquaio to floyd...
then you cant compare tyson to floyd or holyfield... Lol
Why cant I compare Cotto to floyd if you are comparing De la hoya to Floyd..?
The fact of the matter is Floyd Mayweather is the highest grossing Boxer in 2007 .
and the has sold more P.P.V's than any boxing match that didn't feature a heavyweight or a Oscar De La Hoya.
FACTS ARE FACTS. cant change facts ... LolLast edited by Horus; 07-26-2008, 04:25 PM.Comment
