I Beleive: Mosley vs Mayweather > Pac vs Clottey in PPV #

[mangler jr]

His fight in L.A, where he's from, with Mayorga sold about 3000 tickets in an arena that holds 8k.

Don't forget that it was Margarito who sold out Staples Center, not Mosley.

[Panchito]

I think so too. Mosley and Mayweather have the advantage, being both American.

^^^^ that was pre-margarito destruction.

may vs sugar is way more interesting than pac vs clottey.

[-MAKAVELLI-]

Indeed it is. Anyway, this isn't gonna happen.

if they go 1 week after the PAC fight, i'd go for it

[SkillspayBills]

May-Mos does 1.5. Pac Clottey does.................500k? That's my estimates.

Nothing Floyd does in the ring is interesting. Unless by interesting you mean boring.

Pac/Clottey is a real fight.

Mayweather/Mosley will depend on where Mosley is at this age.

If he's still fresh, he can make it a good fight. If he's past it, Floyd will still run and potshot.

this thread is like a relief pill vfor the *****s... finally they are seeing floyd winning something against packy!!

Bad business decision either way.

They'll both do minimal PPV's.

If you had them on separate weekends, they'd both do more PPV's.

You make these whimsical comments and you have nothing to back them up.

Here's some real numbers to chew on:

Last time Pacquiao faced a relatively unknown opponent on PPV he did a dissapointing 160k with Diaz in 2008. Clottey has an even smaller fan base than Diaz..

Mayweather/Mosley is the biggest superfight that can be made in boxing other than May/Pac. If May can do 1 million going up directly against UFC 103 then Clottey will be a piece of cake! HBO will promote the Goldenboy superfight over that TopRank sham any day.

Bad business decision either way.

They'll both do minimal PPV's.

If you had them on separate weekends, they'd both do more PPV's.

That would be unrealistic though, you'd have to have a large enough gap in between them.

They will figure that people won't be inclined to spend back to back dollars on PPV money one weekend after another. This all depends on what Mayweather and his team have planned in contrast to the March 13th date by Pac/Clottey.

Will they go head to head against them on the same day, or schedule the fight down the line on a later day? Only Mayweather's team would know and have their own reasons for either decision.


It's worth nothing though that the general consensus is that Mayweather/Mosely would smash Pac/Clottey in a head to head competition. So once again that may factor into team Mayweather's decision, and whatever decisions they make, be assured that they will have their reason for it.

You got to be the dumbest *****


Please show me a pac-fan saying Clottey is better then Mosley.. or you just talking out of your ass..

It's only a matter of time, and for the record i am a boxing fan, but my favorite boxer is Floyd. I don't care about his personality, i only cares about his skillset and talent. Unlike you, I've given Manny Pacquiao credits, the only reason i criticized him sometimes is because of his nuthugging fans.
