**** PPV. I'm glad we didnt have to pay for any of those because paying $65 to watch a fight is a *****. There should be no PPV just like in the old days.
Why has Mosley been on HBO WCB 3 times in a row?

Do you understand wht sarcasm is?
Hyp about what? You're still on my case about an 100k difference? The point was that the PPV was a flop.
These guys wan to be technical so I will be technical with them too. If the fight sold 499K then idc it's still not 500k. that's how we do it in BS from the looks of it lol.
Btw, good **** on Horus boxing talk last night.Comment

I wish it was like that too but hey look at 2009, only 3 PPVs. There was fights in 2009 that were free and would have been PPV in 2008.
So far this year will look the same. Only Hopkins-Jones, Mayweather and Pacquiao fights would be on HBO PPV. We have the Showtime tourney for free, Berto-Mosley for free, and i'm sure down the year we'll get more free ****. By free I mean HBO/Showtime subscription of course.Comment

My internet connection sucks badly right now. It disconnects all the time, when I have a more stable connection i'd call.
But i'm always there chatting with all of you though, I become eager to call but I just can't at the moment.Comment

the reason mayweather is a bigger draw then mosley is because mayweather runs his mouth and sells his fights,
and mosely never says any thing crazy or interesting to the media. So he appears boring while mayweathers voice brings soo much excitementComment

Yea, 350 K is not a flop at all.
But to answer the question....Mosley is a name, not a draw. I really think it has more to do with the fact that he has fans, but he doesn't have passionate fans.
Guys like Pac, Cotto, and Tito have countries behind them.
Floyd stirs up controversy and knows how to create interest.
DLH had an endearing story and was a gold medalist.
Shane doesn't have anything like that. But I do think his draw is somewhat underrated cause his ratings on WCB are usually solid. But that's what seperates him from the others....When he's fighting for free, people hear the name Shane Mosley and turn on HBO. When he's fighting on PPV, he doesn't have those passionate fans that are willing to shell out $50 to watch him fight.
Same with Hopkins and Winky.Comment
