    I see a lot of pacstans voted, because in reality, as much as one likes Pacquiao, he has not brought in what Mayweather Jr. has, and thats a fact. He's had more chances as well, and it just goes to show that Mayweather Jr. has that characteristic and obvious skill to compare to sell fights.
    If you look at their career PPV numbers they are very close. Pas been on PPV more. Pac is more entertaining in the ring. Pac has all the momentum & he is the face of boxing right now. Again, going forward logic says Pac will draw bigger. We'll find out July 18th, I dont think they break 500k. We shall see.

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

        Nobody even comes close to Ali in that respect.
        I don't know about that the trash talking Floyd did to de la hoya in 24/7 was classic. He gave that series legs and there hasn't been an entertaining one without him.

            Manny is the bigger draw. He is consistently in more exciting fights and he's got the entire filipino population behind him. I mean, crime stops when this guy fights. Mayweather may be a great fighter, but his style doesn't draw fans, only his mouth. He's a total hype machine who rarely delivers excitement when it counts.

              Pacquiao is the bigger draw not even close. Pac/Hatton sold 1,650,000 buys in the US alone.
