    Dan Rafael: "No chance would Floyd-Clottey draw 45K like Pac-Clottey"

    From Dan Rafael's chat today:



    Rob (Denton, Tx): "This is just being honest and real and not hating. But some friends and i were arguing that if Mayweather was fighting Clottey tomorrow would there be 45K there. I say no."

    Dan Rafael (3:00 PM): "No chance Mayweather-Clottey would draw that big of a crowd."

    -------------------------

    Erik (Austin, TX): "Dan, I think it's interesting how people assume you want Mayweather to lose when it's obvious you just want him to challenge himself. All his talk would be warranted if did that."

    Dan Rafael (3:07 PM): "Most people are too dumb to get that."

    ------------------------

    Jeff (Vegas): "Not to be to critical of other 'freaks' but are some of the Mayweather fans kinda mental?"

    Dan Rafael (2:12 PM): "Some?"

    Roach, "Mayweather vs Marquez will bomb".

    Mayweather outsold Pacquiao with ALL common opponents. Logic and history tells us he would do it again with Clottey.

      of course. Floyd will not draw 17K in Michigan. I will bet on that.

          You think Floyd could? I remember you saying that Floyd had trouble selling out in Michigan.

          I think Floyd-Shane could possibly do it. I don't know about Floyd-Clottey though...

          And, BTW I hate Dan Rafael, he sucks is a boxing journalist IMO...

            Who voted for FLOYD vs CLOTTEY is on heavy drugs.

            FLOYD vs dance partner JMM which is way bigger star couldnt sell out MGM GRAND with 6 months of promotions.


            PACQUAIAO vs CLOTTEY by country mile.

              Not a chance.

              Manny Pacquiao is an international star who guarantees entertainment.

              Floyd is known for stinking up the joint.

                I'm a big Floyd fan but I think Floyd vs. Clottey wouldnt draw for 2 reasons...

                1. Pac alone is a huge star respected throughout the world, I'm not saying he's bigger then Floyd but his personality helps alot

                2. If Floyd fought Clottey we ALL know he would get hammered by the media as CHERRY PICKING an opponent like Clottey and no one would wanna watch that fight.
