        Floyd is the current biggest draw in boxing, but Manny is the biggest name in boxing.

        Floyd sells more PPVs and knows how to market a fight. Pacquiao is more popular than Floyd outside the ring and more well know to people who don't watch boxing.

          That's just contradictory.

              You don't have to be the biggest name in boxing to be the biggest draw.

              More people know who Manny is than Floyd or any other current boxer. Manny has been on TIME magazine and has done other things that most boxers don't get to do. How many boxers have multi-million dollar endorsement deals?

              Floyd is the biggest draw, but Manny is more popular. Floyd has better PPV numbers because his fans and the haters pay to see his fights.

                He sells more than your favorite fighter. Deal with it.

                  Why do people like to argue about this **** so much? You have to respect Mayweather's position as the #1 draw in boxing right now.

                  Floyd against (guys who'd never been on ppv) Gatti, Judah, and Baldomir averaged just as much as the Pacquiao-Morales trilogy.

                  Mayweather against Baldomir before De La Hoya sold 325K, Pacquiao against Diaz before De La Hoya sold 225K (I compare those because they're similar opponents).

                  Unless you're getting a piece from future negotiations, just drop it and accept it.

                    Different weight Classes moron. Average Americans dont care about the Lightweight & below. Just Check DLH's number at 135 & Below?? It's comparable to pac's number. Your Floyd doesnt even have one PPV numbers at those weight Classes.

                      This thread is ******. Floyd pre-Oscar wasn't that big. Exactly like Pacquiao pre-Oscar couldn't draw **** either. Pac/Clottey is a terrible comparison to May/Baldo
