    Yea, because nobody cares about the fact that PBF is boring as **** and only has the title because he fights so defensively (which he is good at).

    Because people consider the reason you mentioned and nothing else, right?

    Even if you're a die hard PBF fan, at least have the brain to say that Pacquiao is much more exciting to watch which is a big factor in a fighters ability to draw PPV numbers.

      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.


      Not to mention that 95% of Pac fans are Filipino and 99% of them can't even afford PPV. Actually I believe Pac's fights are broadcast for free in Philipines, no? They are usually in Asian countries (no PPV in Korea, Japan, etc).

      Imagine that, if Filipinos had the ability (financial and other) to purchase Manny's PPV, Manny would be doing 5 million PPV buys each and every fight.

        The Pacman by far. All of Mexico, the UK, the Far East and the Middle East will root for him. Absolutely no doubt. JAT

          Who the fuck is ''HATING'' on Floyd?

          his performance against DLH was CRAP.

          Pacquiao (who was the underdog and smaller) against DLH embarrased Oscar and made him QUIT.

          Therefore, Pacquiao is the bigger Draw.

            Pacquiao can sell a fight on his own. Mayweather kinda has to complement a big draw.

            ( I'm a fan of Mayweather).
            I agree with this, Mayweather is a great fighter but he needs another big name to really help him sell. If they end up fighting each other it should be a 50-50 purse split though

                Again, I said this in another thread. Hatton wasnt the draw against Floyd. Why do people keep saying that he was? No one knew Hatton in the US. He brings fans but there from England. It has nothing to do with US PPV buys. If Hatton had fought anyone else in that PPV then it wouldve done crap numbers in the US. Floyd is the one who sold that fight, wihtout a doubt. You guys are looking at it backwards. If Hatton fights Baldy in the US then you tell me who's going to buy it? No one. It might do numbers in England but not here. Floyd was the US draw easily
                floyd has so little fans that the whole audience booed the US anthem. that's how pathetic that guy is; not even his own nation likes him enough to buy a ticket
