PPV Predictions for Mosley vs Floyd and Manny vs Clottey:

[rommel357]

Considering that Manny vs Cotto did 1.25 million, i won't be surprised if Manny vs Clottey will do the same if not more.

[DoubleMM]

lol @ people actually beliving Pacquiao comes anywehre near 1 million. the fight does about 500k tops.

[josenoway]

sort of depends on the undercard too. If GBP stacks it, then there's a good chance of a blockbuster PPV.

The TR fight should do alright, I mean, it's still Manny Pacquiao no matter how you slice and dice it. But trying to sell it as a co-main event thing with Margarito when he's fighting Carson Jones (yeah, who?), I dunno. JLC-Gomez...again, I dunno, JLC post-135, not exactly inspiring or compelling.

It'll be interesting to see how it plays out.

It's bizzare we are doing this, but I might as well have a crack

Pacquiao-Clottey: 900K

May-Mosley: 1.2 mil

Top rank undercards are so ****. Margarito is on the card, yeah great! who is he fighting? Oh.

Margs is coming off a KO win and a layoff, plus a hard 40odd fights before that. I perfectly understand the need for a tune up, but against a guy that can test him a little and give him some good rounds would be nice. This guy lost to Gomez, Margs will bust him up and break him into little pieces with minimal difficulty. Margs probably gets better rounds with his sparring partners.

Pac-Clottey - 850-900k

Mayweather-Mosley - 1.5 million

My early estimates.

[madsweeney]

I think both will do about 1.2

Huge fight for Floyd but as he said himself, Mosley isn't a huge draw but it'll still be pretty big as its Floyd's first live fight in a very long time.

Pac clottey will get plenty of support from the mainstream and will get alot more foreign support from both Asian and Latin Americans.

I do think Floyd has a better chance to edge out PPV buys but Pac will clean out in the gate.

May-Mosley - 1.2 Million
Pac-Clottey - 500K

I'm still not convinced on the merits of choosing Dallas. I mean, how many people will actually fly to Dallas for the fight? I guess it could draw heavily on the locals but still, I felt Vegas would have been a more attractive destination. Weak undercard, wierd locale, etc. I could be wrong, sure, but I don't know how strong the gate will be. You have to reason that March Madness will be gearing up that same week as well. You gotta figure some percentage of people would rather save up for March Madness than fly to Dallas for a one-off fight. Selection Sunday is actually March 14, the very day after the Pacquiao-Clottey fight. That would have been infinitely more attractive to go to Vegas and watch the fight on Saturday, then stayed for Selection Sunday and the sportsbook, etc.

Pacquiao vs. Clottey - 600K
