        And trust me, I don't know how much finance news you dumb ***s read, but December was a very bad time to hold a PPV event to try and generate huge sales.

        People and businesses were choked from funds and the last thing most people would have done is pay 50 bucks for a PPV event. Considering the extent of the financial crisis especially in Oct - Dec of 2008 that event could have easily generated close to 2 million if not for the timing.
        Lololololol.

            so far it has been mayweather....

            if pac keeps fighting and beating everyone and floyd stays retired things may change...

              he's had more ppv's.

              floyd has had the bigger blockbuster ppv but it wasn't just him. fighting hatton and oscar helped too.

              he coudlnt even sell out a Arena in his hometown.
              that can be said with most fighters..

              pacman has never been known to sell out arenas on his own.. he needed a morales or a de la hoya or a marquez.. just like mayweather had a gatti, or a hatton, or a de la hoya

                Floyd kills it on PPV. Far better than pacman, and floyd has had less ppvs, hell, Pacman had a ppv before floyd did. People who say floyd needs a named opponent to draw just need to look at the david diaz numbers against pacman.

                Floyd for whatever reason, kills it on PPV.

                  pac probably is the bigger draw.

                    i voted based on who draws more butts to actually see the fight. so i voted for pac.

                    but if you based who is the bigger draw on ppv numbers then its floyd.

                    Being an american and being able to speak english well definitely gives floyd the edge over pac in selling pay per views in the U.S.

                      How many PPV did Mayweather generate in his other fights excluding Hatton and DLH?
