    it dosn't matter if it was before he retired or not or if he was on the B side. His fight with de la hoya (2.5 million buys) broke every record in any weight (since u are talking weight divisions), any ppv event period. Mannys fight with de la didnt even compare and he has a whole country behind him. Floyds trash talking sells

        Whats your point? If only for arguments sake that PBF did better numbers than Manny, i dont argue that. I know Floyd was part of the biggest ppv event in history.

        But if you think Floyds previous ppv numbers will mean he will have bigger ppv numbers against manny now, nobody would believe that. Why dont you wait and compare Cotto vs Manny against Floyd vs JMM.

        Do you think HBO is selling ppv in the Philippines?

          yes he will have bigger numbers against marquez (now) than manny did. my point is every opponent that manny and floyd both faced, floyd did better with that same opponent. when floyd fights cotto after cotto beats manny, floyd and cottos numbers will do better that manny and cottos.

            Manny vs JMM 3 broke records of ppv numbers in lower weights. there's no point comparing PBF vs JMM and Manny vs JMM. That was before Manny fought DLH and Hatton.
            oh so Mayweather was on the B side, but Pac was on the A side and did almost half? They were both on the B side, but Mayweather's B side produced better #'s, FACT.

              Floyd vs JMM will have bigger numbers vs. Pac vs Cotto?

              Floyd did better but it doesnt mean floyd will do better now.

                I dont say that Pacs #s produced better than Floyds #s. I agree that its a fact that Floyds #s are better than Pac's.

                My point is, Floyd's #s before he retired wont mean he will have the same #s now. Pac's #s will be better than Floyd's #s now.
