Where is the Pacquiao vs. Clottey hype?

[Pacdbest]

Promotions has been horrible thus far. I don't understand it at all. Arum and Jones surely are better businessmen than this. I mean it shouldn't be hard to sell the first fight in Cowboys Stadium.

They almost sold out the stadium. It's already a success. They dont need to introduce Pac again and again. He's already Known. 3 consecutive successful PPV shows, all of them in sold out arenas. Pac basically dominates all boxing awards in the last 2 years. Pac inherit the title of PPV king from DLH already. We only buy a Floyd show to see him lose but we watched Pac PPV because of the guaranteed action fight.

I can Guarantee at least 1 M BUy for this fight.

the hype might start later...who knows..

It's 2 weeks away bro. What are they waiting for?

The Mayweather-Mosley announcement gave this fight the final blow of death.

I will be amazed if that happens.

Exactly, we're on the 26.

I will be amazed if that happens.

That would be a HUGE success.

Clottey isn't a great opponent for Pac.

He is tough and won't be easy to beat at all.

The main issue is that no one knows him outside of boxing and he isn't a great fighter/style.

Dont you know that Mayweather still talking Pac rather than Mosley. Floyd needs pac to sell his fight. I can Guarantee a boring fight. Floyd against a Big Puncher will always be a Boring fight.

De La Joto fight was a million PPV buys, Hatton was close to a million, the fight against Cotto exceeded expectations. And you know PAC gained the respect of the Puerto Rican fans.

You can bet his fanbase grew just from that. Puerto Ricans love action fighters, add the Mexican fans that have watched him through the years. I would consider 3/13 a bust if it does lower than 800k PPV buys.

PAC with hardly any promotion automatically brings with him 400k PPVs

All the Boxing fans need to see is how This Clottey looks. When they found out that This Clottey is a much bigger, never been Koed, Muscular African guy and PPV buyers will be convinced this is a Must buy.

i think mosley/floyd jr (1.5mil) will outsell pacquiao/clottey (1.2mil)...
and it wont be because of mayweather or his fans.
there will be more people buying to watch to see mosley beat floyd (which is my case),
than there will be people watching as a mayweather fan
