    Last time Arum came out and said Fire Power did 1.7M, instead it was 1.2M which is a success in my opinion. I was expecting The Event to do 500K; for a fight that recieved no hype, so 650K+ would be a success.

      thats why you *****s need to start paying for PPV instead of streaming it for free. Dont worry, mosley will sell more than 800k.
      Shows your ignorance. You Pee-Tards assume that if you say something against Pac, then you're automatically a *****...LOL. I said casual fans. I myself have ordered almost every big ppv for the last 13 years. I'm not a ***** just cause I know this would happen. I hear it from a bunch of my friends, family, and co-workers who are casual fans after every boring ppv (including Floyd vs De LaHoya). And if Mosely is such a big draw like you *******s keep claiming, them why was his last fight on HBO?

          Pac vs. Cotto
          Pac vs. Hatton
          Pac vs. Clottey
          Pac vs. JMM

          any of them...

          Mayweather vs. Mosley will outsell them all
          wanna bet?

          Pacquiao vs. Mosley would not beat any Mayweather ppv.

          but Mayweather vs. Mosley will beat all of Pac's ppv's

            you think Floyd could draw more than 800K with Clottey and no 24/7?

              Given the FACTS that Floyd sold more with common opponents should tell everyone that but they still dont grasp that concept without arguing about it.

                That's really just speculation though... Best way is to look at head to heads..

                    GOING BACK TO MY ORIGINAL point, PAC having good numbers for this ppv is a hindrance to making the showdown possible


                    my goodness, you talk ppv and these mother****ers start poppin out of the woodwork

                      No one knows because they havent fought. All we have is head to head with common opponents and Floyd took all 3 of those fights in the PPV Buys.
