    The answer is simple. That is exactly what Pac fans have been doing for months. Pac fans had no trouble talking about how Pac/Cotto outsold Mayweather/Marquez. They had no trouble talking about the number of people who showed up at the Pac/Cotto press conference to see Pac. They had no trouble talking trash when they thought that Pac/Cotto would sell 2 million PPVs. They had no trouble talking about how the Pac/Cotto fight "sold out" (even though it didn't) while Mayweather/Marquez didn't come close to selling out. So, in other words, Pac fans had no issues talking numbers when they thought they could use them to point out how superior Pac was to Mayweather. Now, suddenly, numbers don't matter.

      Two american fighters fighting in america will be outsold by two non-americans.....in america? Considering that Floyd and Mosley are sure to become HOF, that might be too much for you Team America..

        Exactly. Just giving them a taste of their own medicine. Although I'm going to keep doing this for the next 2 months. Just for ****s and giggles.

            You'd be surprised what HBO exposure does to a fighter's popularity. My friends are casual fans. They know Clottey just because of his war with Cotto. HBO exposure is huge in boxing because some people's exposure to boxing is only HBO fights.

              Nobody cares about Pacquiao. Floyd-Mosley sold 14K tickets in 15 minutes.
              where did you read that Floyd/Mosley sold 14,000 tickets i 15 minutes.

                Floyd sold 14K in 15 minutes.

                Draw your own conclusions.

                I therefore conclude that you are a ***** who makes up numbers to make himself feel better about Pacquiaos bigger popularity that your boyfriend Mayweather.

                FIGHTER OF THE DECADE BABY!!!

                oh decades not over i forgot...

                    they're not fight fans.

                    they're little ****'s who took the "pretty boy" thing way too far and are interested in things like ***elery, money and lend us a hand as to the true meaning of floyd's words.
