    DLH-Mayweather did 2.5 becasue of Oscar being the biggest draw ever in boxing and because mayweather is an American who was the best at the time. If Pac wasnt coming up 12 pounds in weight and was American i bet it would have done around the same numbers.

But Floyd has ressurected his PPV appeal as evidenced with the Marquez numbers.

      consider it was his comeback fight.........6 months promotion..............it was an ok performance...........................but not for a PPV "star" such as floyd.................

            I understand all of this...but why did Pac do the same #'s with Oscar as he did with Cotto?

                If you want to look at #'s then it looks like Pac's star power hasnt built up because Manny did the same #'s vs Oscar that he did with Cotto....1.25

                explain this

                  How is he peaking?..he knocked out Oscar....he knocked out hatton (these did less #'s than the Oscar fight)....these were knockout praised by everyone...then he fights Cotto..another PPV fighter and does the same #'s that he did with Oscar?...1.25

                      LOL..i love how you avoid the Question....I asked you why is it that DLH-PAC did the same #'s as Pac-Cotto? has Manny not got more fans since his 2 Ko wins over DLH & Hatton?
