    What that has to do with the question?

    If Pacquiao was and is a bigger draw than Mayweather
    why didnt he get 15 million to fight JMM?
    and what did he get to fight JMM?

      Yes because the boxing community's opinion of DLH-Mayweather had any effect on the success of that fight.

      I realize why you're mad though bro. Mayweather is taking in 15 million for this supposed "mismatch". Mayweather being able to add the name of your favorite fighter to his "***** List". Mayweather regaining the throne as boxing's biggest star with this PPV.

      By the way, why haven't Pac-Hatton numbers been released yet? It smells a lot like Cotto-Marg numbers not being released forever, and then finding out that fight did a pathetic 450K.

        You asked why he didn't make as much, I told you because he wasn't as popular.

        If Pacquiao was and is a bigger draw than Mayweather
        why didnt he get 15 million to fight JMM?
        I never said he was a bigger draw.

        and what did he get to fight JMM?
        I don't know what he made. for Marquez.

          I hope "Dinimita" runs into him in a dark alley one night and beats the piss out of him for that blatant disrespect.

          And that dude is supposed to be a professional?
          trust me Steve has nothing but the utmost respect for JMM and thinks its going to be a better than expected fight. We argue about it all the time.

          he was at the presser and noted the size discrepency

              Or it could be because Mayweather is the ****ing promoter.

                Damn. Since when has 450K been pathetic; especially when one of the fighters had only been on ppv once in a dud. Your hate is misguided.

                I didn't know Kim was gonna catch so much hate for a joke, some of these guys got some pent up hate toward him because most of the posts in here are about him.

                    fighting at bantamweight and featherweight
