LOl at Maywether and possibly Manny being this huge draw

[Ch@mpBox@PR]

COMBINE both of them and it will turn into a big event. Pac has a good following...Floyd has a decent following and some will pay to see Floyd lose...

I agree with that, totally.

But my point is that this 3 guys are about even in drawing power, counting PPv and attendence!!!!!!!!

Cotto whoops them both in live attendace!!!!!!!

[Doctor_Tenma]

Im not saying he aint a draw. Im just saying he is not this huge draw, you and the rest of his stans claim he is.

I meanCotto vs Margo did 440K+ PPV buys. FLoyd biggest prior to DLH was 365K against Gatti!!!!!!!!!

Im just saying that this 3 guys are about the same level of drawing power!!!!!!

Wrong, he did 374,000 buys against Zab Judah.

[Ch@mpBox@PR]

When a mass audience sees you fight, a good chunk tunes in next time. If Mayweather wasn't or Pacquiao wasn't. They are now.

I totally agree, but you did get my point, right?????

[Ch@mpBox@PR]

Wrong, he did 374,000 buys against Zab Judah.

Ok, My bad, Still a (According to you, FLoyd stans and FLoyd himself) unknown fighter in Miguell Cotto did More PPV buys with another supposley unknown fighter, than Him, not counting DLH or Hatton!!!!!!!!!

[Doctor_Tenma]

Mayweather

365,000 PPV buys against Gatti.
374,000 PPV buys against Zab Judah .
325,000 PPV buys against Baldomir (No Namer).
915,000 PPV buys against Hatton (Hatton 1st PPV in the U.S)
2.5M PPV Buys against DLH

and I'm expecting 550K PPV buys against JMM.

I totally agree, but you did get my point, right?????

Yeah, but back then and still now doing 350k draws were good numbers. It showed they were draws among boxing fans anyway.

Im not a big "You have to be a big PPV draw to get a fight", but After doing some reading and stuff, I realiza mayweather is not that big a of a draw.

The dude Biggest PPV Number Without DLH and Without Hatton is 365K. The fans that tune in to watch Mayweather-DLH was becaise they wanted Floyd to get beat nothing more. And the Hatton-FLoyd FIght, well FLoyd had some of DLHs stardom, plus Rickys Army of fans.

This **** gets played out to much by him, his team and his nuthuggers in NSB.

Manny is in the same bout, Tale away his fights with the 2 biggest CashCows on tehir sport and his bigest PPV nmber is like 370K I believe. If Im wrong Correct me.

After Fighting and Hatton and DLH now they ae big draws, because they took that stardom form thise 2 guys who have a Huge ARMY of Fans.

The thing is Cotto in his fight Margarito landed 440,400 PPV buys. He sold out MSG 2 and having a attendance record at MSg in his fight with Judah.

Then you have Margarito, who sold out and have the biggest crown ever at Staples. So I think he have a say on teh matter too.


SO why all of this Mayweather and Pacquiao has been bigger draw, when Cotto have had equal or better succes at selling., When not talking DLH or hatton?

I think if Cotto would of fought this 2 guys(Hatton and DLH) he would of been a bigger Draw than manny and Floyd. And Margarito too.

That might be true to a point but at this point both could sell very well without Hatton and DLH. Mayweather will do well over 400,000 against Marquez. Cotto and Mosley was still a dissappointment in my eyes considering both are great fighters and supposed to be big stars in boxing. You have to give credit to May and Pac because both became big stars after fighting Oscar as far as Pay per View. Other fighters didn't such as Mosley, Hopkins. They didn't become huge PPV attractions even though they were both P4P #1 at one point or another.

[Ch@mpBox@PR]

Yeah, but back then and still now doing 350k draws were good numbers. It showed they were draws among boxing fans anyway.

And I totally agree. But Why this so call Cotto aint a big enough draw, when he clearly had more PPV buys than this 2. Not mentioning DLH or Hatton!!!!!!!!

[-Hyperion-]

PBF is historically a bigger draw than manny and cotto......


Floyd made around 350k with Judah and Baldomir(aka no names).....Cotto made like 250k with Judah....like 350k with Mosley....like 450k with margarito's pocho fanbase

Manny did that 350k with Morales......With non mexican no namers he does barely 200k...his biggest PPV without DLH-Hatton is JMM---which made 400k.

The good thing for Manny is, he is fresh in peoples conscience, plus he has given a show in both his biggest fights.....Floyd on the other hand, has been out of the spotllight for a while......i think theyre about even now.....a fight between them should be 53/47 split for floyd at most......1.5 million buys would be possible.....

[larry x]

ok let me say this..you cant look at there numbers before oscar and hatton cause those 2 fights gave them new fans so they are bigger then they were before those 2 fights..add to that floyd retired got people begging him to return so hes even bigger now cause of that aswell
