Pacquaio Will Do Nothing To Promote This Fight

My bad I thought when I threw out the 1.2 number I was talking about domestic. That you would automatically known that I was about domestic numbers. Since the 1.2 was a domestic number. And, in that post I said that they did that great number without really promoting the fight.
And, I did ask when has Floyd done 1.2 without Oscar. Floyd is great at promoting and he gets great numbers. But, my point was that sometimes you don't need to promote the hell out of fight. You just need 2 great stylistic match-up and the fight would sell it self.
I mean wouldn't you enjoy "trash" talking like this? This is what sells fights...
I looked forward to watching them after seeing that.Comment

there is already a big buzz in mainstream media about this fight. heard it mentioned on espn a number of times and coworkers who i've never heard talk about boxing are talking about this fight. for what it's worth pacuiao was on jimmy kimmel before the cotto fight so he's crossing over to the mainstream already. actually around my way i don't think theres anybody who hasn't heard of manny.Comment

With this fight I think is being build as good guy vs bad guy. Pac- humble, polite, respectful (Good guy) vs Floyd- arrogant, disrespectful, flashy, trash talker (bad guy). See I think that is the angle they going to use. So if that is the angle they are using then Pac can't trash talk. He will not be looked as the good guy. is like the national hero vs the villain.Comment

Manny would even gain a lot of Floyd fans if he could hold his own with a bit of comedic trash talking and singing.Comment
