Insider Notebook: Mum on Mayweather, Pacquiao Fever

[DLT]

I think some people could be as good as Oscar with the numbers "if" they wanted to take some losses in the process and I just dont see anyone doing that. by that I mean that if someone like Floyd wanted to have 1 or 2 fights on basic TV and then had a PPV then I think he could do big numbers but no one wants to do that because they wouldnt get paid much for fighting on basic TV. If boxing was still on CBS or whatever then it would still be huge. One fighter should do that and everyone would watch him and talk about him

wouldnt that make hiim look cheap since hes fighting on cbs and some people wouldnt take him seriously kind of like duddy fighting on msg and chavez jr on latin fury cards

I agree with Merchant.

This is do or die for Ricky. He needs to demonstrate that he belongs at the top after a devastating loss.

A great performance against Manny, even in defeat, will expand his options.
