    Mayweather isn't a huge draw, people need to understand that. Pac vs Hatton will be the bigger fight.

    Both of these fighters will have a country behind them.

    Mayweather will have few fans on the internet.

      Floyd IS a ppv draw as he stated after he demolished Gatti(plus with Gatti being a club fighter comments help sell buys) and the 24/7 lead up to his fight with Oscar was the shining moment as well! PBF and his crew help sell that fight!

      People think everyone bought that fight to see Oscar ko PBF. BUT the Hip hop community and a large urban market bought the ppv to see their guy PBF kick Oscars ass...

      Floyd was everywhere, talk shows, Dancing with stars, WWF, videos etc... And the talk on ALL web forums(love him or hate him)..

      Just as the Hatton vs Floyd fight PBF is a star whether he gets his credit or not! He made that 24/7 and he kicked Ricky's ass in the process... I betcha a fight between PBF and Pacman will do at least 1.5 - 2 million buys.

      Plus to have the P4P kings fight it out! Is rare!!! Never done!! Either was it goes it is going to be an easy fight! Pac easily whips Hatton or Floyd easily whips Pacman... Pick your poison...

          Pac V May. Hatton would not do good on PPV vs anyone. Atleast not in America. Pac V May would do over a million.

            Manny/Mayweather, because most people already know Manny would beat Hatton. Only people who don't know this are some biased uk people.

              Pac vs Floyd would get the most money.

                PPV buys are different from money the fight generates.

                Pac/Floyd would do more buys.

                Hatton/Pac in Wembley would do more $ overall.

                  Mayweather would be a huge draw now. He is popular as hell and has crossed over into a star. I think you need to understand that Mayweather before DLH is not Mayweather after DLH. Both Pac and Mayweather have been seen by millions and millions on the highest stage. Ricky Hatton was viewed by millions losing to Mayweather. Pac V Mayweather would do about 1.2 million and Pac V Hatton about 750k.

                    To me PBF-Pacman (I am talking just US of course because I think Pacman-Hatton would do great in the UK and make money on the US end) .

                    PBF-Pacman has a very good storyline to it that people eat up, Hero vs. Villian. In boxing good versus evil is the best possible storyline you can have and to me there is no better villian then Floyd and no better hero then Manny. If promoted right and they play those roles it could be huge.
