Sad thing is "The Event" will only hinder the ratings of the Shane/Floyd fight. With that fight being so soon after Pac/Clottey, most casual fans will say "I'm not wasting another $60 on a fight that ends up being a snore fest, I just wasted $60 bucks on that boring Pac fight" That's how casual fans are, who are sadly the majority of of people paying for these ppvs. It takes them a long time to forget.Comment

Well it shows that whenever A-side fighter sell millions in PPV its also because of their B-side opponents. This would still be good numbers considering Clottey's status in within boxing, I had a few argument in november that Pac didnt do 1.4 million buys on his own against Cotto and i was prove right.Comment

thats why you *****s need to start paying for PPV instead of streaming it for free. Dont worry, mosley will sell more than 800k.Last edited by GT-R; 03-18-2010, 12:56 PM.Comment

If there is over 800k, that is good news.

1million would be more of a surprise than Floyd-JMM for me, well not really but I don't expect a millieComment
