    During times of recession, you need to sell quality. You cannot stuff nonsense down peoples throats because the public are far more buyer beware. The public will buy quality though, and they expect quality for every hard earned dollar.

    There is also a lesson for Floyd in all this. The boxing public will more likely throw money your way if you are liked. If you continue to play the villain, they will get tired of it. If you do decide to play the Villain, it will only work if you back it up. Don't talk about being the best if you are not willing to back that **** up.
    quoted for truth.

      I agree that Pacqiao is a bigger draw. But lets not forget that Pacquiao has the same last two opponents as Floyd does. So to say that DLH and Hatton were the big draw when Floyd fought them, but Pacquiao sold all the tickets when he fought them is just being biased.

        I believe Floyd helped make it one. Noone put the pressure of him being a big draw more then he did on himself.

                    Pavlik had a chance but he blew it.

                    Kirkland maybe had a chance, and juan Diaz. Dawson maybe. Is adamek currently the biggest consistent draw here??

                    Aerrola too.
