With unofficial PPV buys for Pacquiao-Hatton out, I think a thread is in order..

Discuss.

Pretty obvious that Mayweather is the bigger draw. Still I'd like the split to be 50/50 incase they fight

Mayweather, obviously.

Thanks in large part to his public personna, the way he sells himself and his fights, and the way people will shell out $50 in the hopes of seeing him lose.

Yup.

Though there's obviously no comparison in terms of ability to talk trash.

Nobody even comes close to Ali in that respect.

pac for sure! why?...pac vs diaz alone was on ppv while floyd vs baldo was in free tv

Trick question, for entertainment purposes Pacquiao is. For people who like boring boxers or want to see that boring boxer lose, its floyd. But that boring boxer refuses to take risks fighting Cotto, Mosley, or Clottey or any other decent fighter at their 147 weight class. And I hate excuses saying floyds not a 147 pound fighter yet he refuses to back away from that weight class.

people will be waiting for his fights like they did for tyson fights

Yea Floyd has very little style and grace to what he says and lacks overall originality. He is brash though and knows how bug the **** out of people in a way few before could even dream of.

I still think the heart of this matter is that they need each other to make the most money out there, so they are bacially in equal position with one prehaps being slightly ahead.
