    Who would you rather watch, an average girl dancing or a very very very hot girl dancing?

        so far it looks like pacquiao is the attraction and deserves the bigger sized purse, i think 60/40 is fair.

          Pac for sure. Plus, everytime I have people over to watch a fight, they tend to drift from the room when Mayweather is on or sit around talking about something else...but with Pac...they stay and it's loud and crazy. Don't mind watching a fight alone but...damn...it feels awkward sometimes when people are there and leave. But hey, they all are the casual fans that like a fist-fight toe to toe so I don't get to bent over it...I understand.

            Not how it works. It's still about the numbers in the end. People will still pay to see Floyd to see him get beat...many people. The Numbers show it. That's why Floyd will compare his numbers with the same opponents to Pac.

            We've seen Pac get beat but not Floyd. Paying to see if he will lose is an attraction.

                so, you're saying from the numbers is that people want pac to beat up someone and floyd to be beaten up by someone?

                interesting. made a note on that.

                  Yup...sad but true.

                  People can root for Pac but for Floyd...they want to see his ass get kicked.

                  I said it before, Floyd is like Ty Cobb: a great athlete who is smart and highly skilled you can respect but comes off as an ******* so you don't want to see him win...while Pac is like Babe Ruth: great as well but a guy you can root for and is like a big kid.

                  Now not the best example but hopefully you get the point...if you even follow baseball history.


                  Or better yet, stick with boxing history: Floyd is Jack Johnson or Ali in his prime where people wanted them to lose and shut them up.
                  Pac is...Dempsey and/or Ray Leonard.

                    I might be odd but I like watching a master at his craft perform...

                    Manny is exciting but, I'd personally rather see a guy dominate defensively AND offensively... Not, "I'll take your punch to land 3"... I'd rather watch that type of action in the UFC... Give me a GSP fight over a Man Pac anyday... I'll watch Floyd perform with brilliance over them all, any day of the week...

                      Even Floyd at 147+

                      I don't know...I even get bored with him.

                      Give me Floyd below 140, yeah...great to watch.

                      Still think I would choose Pac though. Just like I would prefer a Prime Tyson than a Prime Ali.
