floyd is a genius...he planned all of this

[mellow_mood]

serious challenges at ww what? If i'm not mistaken p4p, pacman and jmm are both ranked higher than cotto, mosley, berto, and anybody else at 147.
If floyd fights a ww...that's cool. If he fights a super lw...that's cool too. As long as he fights!

holly **** kid!! those are big words.. and i think you are mistaken.. or the list you are looking at is a pretty biased one..

theres no way you can rank pacman & jmm higher than berto, cotto & mosley @ 147....


in the p4p yes they do.. but that doesnt change the fact.. that the real challenge at WW are those guys.. not the p4p#1 #2 guys

no way.

[MANGLER]

retire,rest his body,wait till the demand is high..and return..he will be the biggest name in the sport do huge numbers...if he comes back for a tune up with jmm-#2p4p in the world..then fight pacman#1 p4p in the world..then fight the #1 welterweight in the world.....wow..3 fights that would make him top 10-15 alltime imo....

He won't fight the #1 WW in the world at this point.

I agree Larry, top 5 for sure! I can't wait until he comes back and opens the can of whoop ass that everyone and their Mommas been asking for. Be careful what you ask for cuz you just might get it!

[andrewcuff]

p4p dufus!

Yeah and? Fighting Mosley/Cotto is more challenging than fighting Marquez IMO. Floyd isn't going to go down to 135, so that means Marquez will be forced to fight at 140. Do you honestly think Marquez at 140 would be tougher than Mosley/Cotto at 147?

Secondly it was £20 for the Hatton PPV against Mayweather, which was just over $40 dollars at the time. What did you pay in the US? $50? Not earth shattering considering your population is +300million and ours is ~65million.

He doesn't have to because of their history but all roads should lead to Mosley if he gets passed Cotto the second time around.

[mellow_mood]

but... if it goes like larry predicts...

he can be right... but i dont count on that... i just cant right now. i have 2 see it first.

if he does.. im gonna be the veryfirst one to give props to him

Good post.

British fans bought more PPVs than US fans did for that fight. Again, it shows Hatton's pulling power in relation to Mayweather.

Hatton-Pac will do more than 1 million in the UK alone most likely and don't forget the economy is in a recession now.

You are seriously nitpicking Oscar's PPV pulling power? Eh?

hell no im not denying DLH's PPV numbers..just saying there will never be and there was never a boxer other than Floyd that can sell 2.4 mill ppvs with oscar..Trinidad-Oscar made a mill something and u remember how hyped that was..Yeah and ur right Hatton has a lot of pulling power and in my opinion should have gotten the higher share vs pacman..at least 55-45..but delusional fans swear Pacman is sum kind of boxing-fan magnet when he only sold 400 thou ppvs vs jmm..the fact of the matter is..the Top PPV selleres out rigt now..will do their highest PPV numbers vs Floyd..and at the end of the Day* u will see its a fact

Oscar-Floyd was a mega-fight though. They always sell well. By pulling I mean thousands would flood to Manchester Stadium and fill it just to watch Hatton fight his gran. Hell, he'd fill Wembley easily most probs.

Mayweather's big PPV numbers have come against proven draws in Oscar and Hatton. Against lesser opposition he's never come close to matching those numbers.

Yea, he's definitely pulling a ray leonard, when ray came back the 2nd time he drew BIG NUMBERS and when he fought Hagler even MORE NUMBERS.
