Pac vs Dela Hoya PPV was a flop because many people believe it was a curcus act. If Pac was to destroy Cotto and than fight Dela Hoya, I bet it would have done 2mills plus PPV. I still can believe it did over 1mill with that ****. People were only buying it to see how Dela Hoya was going to beat Pac down...they got a suprise.

This is a ridiculous post. It is the equivalent of comparing apples to cabbage. You can manipulate numbers any way you want if you are not comparing apples to apples. John McCain won more states in the presidential election than Barack *****. But, who is the current POTUS?Pacquiao vs Mayweather PPV Buys - The De la Hoya Effect

Floyd has made a lot more money on his fights, pre and post Oscar than Pacquaio and will make twice as much as Pac in their next fight. Using that logic, Floyd is the biggest draw by a landslide.
The only way you can have a true comparison is to compare their PPV numbers against common opponents, including Oscar. If you do that, Floyd wins by a landslide. Even if you don't include Oscar, Floyd still wins.Last edited by big_james10; 02-14-2010, 08:59 PM.Comment

Who cares what they did before they became stars in boxing? Pac fought a lot of Mexican fighters.
How much did Pac sell compare to Floyd with common opponents? The only numbers that should matter are the numbers they have with common opponents.Comment
