    Then Floyd - JMM was seen as a mismatch and the PPV sales from that shouldn't count

      Exactly. You see how they try and use things for the sake of their argument? Which is why you cant take them seriously.

        the largest ppv buys for any fight under 147 at the time.

        now 2nd to pacquiao-hatton.

        what did floyd draw under 147?

        see how it goes both ways?



        better to compare floyd-jmm and pac-cotto.

        pac and pbf will be the main draw for both fights.

        it'll be around the same time and same economic conditions.

        their opponents are both highly regarded and ranked.

        both their opponents both have a similar sized fanbase.

        pac is coming off his hatton win which adds to his hype.

        pbf is coming out of retirement to add to his hype.



        it'll be a fair comparison.

            i give up.

            no further interest discussing ppv draws and numbers.



            if the fight happens it happens. don't care about who gets a bigger split.

              kobe is the biggest draw in the nba. not sports.



              i'd pay for a lebron-kobe one on one.

              i don't know if the "king" would want people to see the video though.

                lol that's like saying oscar was the draw and not floyd.

                    ok say if Cotto - Pac outsold Floyd - JMM

                    You still think Floyd would take less than 50%

                    I'm being honest Floyd wont take less than 50 against anyone, whether right or wrong

                      I don't think ANYBODY ever saw footage of that college kid owning LeBron... I mean FFS the GOAT MJ got shook up by a green, rookie version of Allen Iverson and national TV and he's still the GOAT and LeBron became a ****ing primadonna hiding the tape like that
