    Which Fight Was/Is Bigger?

    Floyd-Pac or Tito-Oscar? Obviously not from a PPV standpoint because Floyd-Oscar already topped the Tito fight but Im just speaking from a pure P4P and boxing insiders hype for hype stand point. Remember that both Oscar & Tito were near the top of the P4P list and both were undefeated. Everyone wanted to see that fight and was drooling over the thought of it. You could even imagine at that time that a Floyd-Pac matchup would be in that catagory but they are now and probably have surpassed it. What do you guys think? Again, Im not talking about the mainstream. Im talking about moreso inside of boxing

    I havent bumped a thread in years but I just have to hear people's thoughts on this because I know everyone inside of boxing was mad hype about the Oscar-Tito fight but I actually think this one would top it

      Pacman v Floyd without a shadow of a doubt. Biggest fight since Whitaker v Chavez or maybe even Leonard v Hagler

        That is a good question, I think Floyd-Manny ends up bigger in the end but without really seeing it it is just speculation.

        Oscar-Tito was huge though.

          Not as big as Lennox VS Tyson but big enough.

            Not too many people on here were alive for Tito/Oscar.

              Pac vs Floyd will be a lot like Duran vs Leonard I
              Pac is the brawler/puncher. Floyd is the boxer.

              Pac by 12 round UD.

                I said Tito-DLH, but it's going to be really really hard to have a debate here due to the fact that we're in the moment (at least assumedly) of Pac-Mayweather. But Tito-DLH was two young superstars, both undefeated, big punchers, a gold medal winner, a mad bomber, father's involved, controversy, two biggest promoters in the world. It was ridiculous

                  Woops I though it was Cotto VS PAC in the poll (that's mostly what's being discussed)

                  Floyd VS PAC would be much bigger.

                    Yeah I think people forget how much hype that fight had inside the boxing world. I still dont know if it was bigger but that mofo was big
