Jim Lampley mentioned in about round 3 or 4, that firepower sold WELL over what May, JMM did. How he knows that no clue.

my boy called me yesterday and said he read somewhere that it did 1.5 million....

i say hell nah!!!

but if so, even as a mayweather fan, i'm happy for the success of the sport.

if manny-cotto really did 1.5, imagine what mayweather-manny will do.

Early projections for the Pacquiao-Cotto fight, which ended with a 12th-round technical knockout, suggest pay-per-view buys in the range of 1.3 million to 1.4 million. A fight between Pacquiao and Mayweather would most likely surpass that and rank among the most viewed in boxing history.

“No matter who Manny fights right now, he’s going to draw a big crowd,” said Bruce Trampler, Top Rank’s matchmaker. “That’s the difference between these guys. Floyd needs a Manny. He needs a De La Hoya, a Hatton. And that’s no disrespect to Floyd. But one guy is an attraction and the other is a good draw.
