How many PPV buys you believe a Mayweather vs Mosley fight can generate

[mrpain81]

That's interesting, where'd you get those numbers man?

I remember reading one of Rafeal's blogs saying all 3 did the same by the Nielsen ratings. Fat man could be wrong.

Theboxingtruth.com John Chavez usually puts up the numbers, he has some sources where he gets nielsen numbers.

I save them all to my computer just because I'm a big fan of the business side of the sport.

And I still disagree. Even minus Pac I think Floyd/Cotto does better numbers than Floyd/Mosley.

Mosley is a huge name, but he doesn't have a passionate enough fan base that's gonna shell out $50 to see him fight, let alone go to the fight. It's always been his problem. It'll capture the casual fan's interest, but about half of those would actually buy the PPV IMO.

I think Cotto has lost a lot of his hype because of the beating he took against Margarito, I don't think people are as confident as they used to be when it comes to fighting Floyd.

Mosley is coming off one of the best wins of his career and has been a good b-side against a lot of fighters. Plus like already mentioned he's been out there a lot more on ESPN so I think May/Shane is the second biggest fight out there.
