Comments Thread For: Pacquiao-Clottey PPV Number To Exceed 700,000

I swear man, you Pac and PBF nutthuggers are something else. Who cares who did more ppv buys!? You come on a site and argue about it like you're getting a share of the cut if the guy you like does better. Grow the heck up and just enjoy boxing. Neither PBF nor Pac care about you getting on a computer and defending them. I mean you should really read what these fools post on these sites. Acting like a bunch of groupie women, making Mayweather and Pac mafias, LOL. You gotta be kidding me. I enjoy watching both boxers, but at the end of the day I don't know them and they don't know me and that's the way it'll stay. The way people catch feelings when you say something about another boxer is ridiculous. But I guess thats what happens when you worship people. Dang shame.

You better get use to it because these guys argue about PPV buys, how much money they make a year, how Manny is more popular than Floyd, etc.

Man, I come on these sites everyday and it's the same old crap. The funny thing is that if you go to the comments of a story about either fighter you'll see more comments from those who hate the fighter than from the fans! If you don't like the guy then stop wasting your time reading and commenting about him, i've never seen grown men so obssessed with people they say they don't like! Honestly, I think PBF fans are closet Pac fans, and Pac fans are closet PBF fans.

pacqiuao is a draw no matter who he fights!700 thousand ppv buys tells you alot about pacqiuaos drawing power!mayweather needs to fight a star top fighter in order to draw,if mayweather would of fought clotty nobody would of supported it like they did for pacqiaou.only 250 thousand would of watched mayweather vs clotty.this tells you clearly that pacquiao is the draw! 700 thousand ppv buys tells you pacqiuao is a huge draw by himself,with out fighting a star!wake up gayweather fans!!

As a matter of fact, I can't remember any Mayweather fight before Oscar, where there was a large crowd, either in the arena or on PPV.

My firm recollection is that every Mayweather fight I tuned in to had a more than half empty stadium, with people getting up to leave in mid-fight. All the various reports used to say that Mayweather, as usual, "stunk out the house".........

So suddenly, this bankrupt, tax fugitive fighter is a HUGE box Office draw..???

Not by himself he isn't.

Considering that this fights was notpromoted well, 700K is impressive.. there was not so much hype on this fight..

I agree, other than Pac and Cowboys stadium this was as weak of an event as I have ever seen. The card was shockingly bad. Paid 60$ to watch Pac hammer away at a shell for 12rds. And I'd do it again because Pac has earned that with me. Almost every fight of his I have watched has been exciting except (Clottey and Barrera 2) where his opposition just tried to survive and did everything in their power to not make it exciting. That is why I am a Pac fan and not a Floyd fan. I used to like floyd 4-5 yrs ago but after watching all of his last fights I stopped liking him. He doesn't care at all about the fans and takes on easy fights and does nothing to entertain the fans. **** he fought a safe fight against a blown up super feather in JMM and that was after he missed weight for the fight.

Did you see the gift match where Pac landed two power shots and got creamed the rest of the fight. Oh, by the way the top analysts thought your boy got whooped. When will he stop ****ing ducking Mosely and Mayweather. I am ****ing tired of the hype job.

*******s are the pioneers in the nuthugging & hate category, they always apply it to every analysis. ****ing sad. Most are either bandwagon fans or fanatical types that don't want to disscuss boxing or give a **** about what boxing is all about. Ali would have been a dumbass in their book. Guys that are able to avoid punches and beat poeple are gay. Freaking delusional. Liitle prick can't even reach Ali's ****ing kneee cap.

Do the math Eistein. 50,000 x 50 and 700,00 x 50.....duh.

If the other fight ( Mosely and Mayweather) does anything over 1 million the 50,000 is BS especilly after costs.

Lets do the math again son 1,000,000 x 50......duh
Heck that is not considering the fight night crowd. Wow.

If I could only see one of the two fights, I would see Mosely vs Mayweather which is a fight between two of the best WW in the last decade. That is the ****ing truth. The PPV numbers will demonstrate that it is a fact, thus making it REALITY.

He wasn't before he fought DLH but he is now. His PPV figures of around a million against Marquez (whose previous best was 400k against Pacquiao, and who everyone knew wouldn't be able to be competitive at Welterweight) prove that.

Fight fans were ready for a fight after all the Pac vs Mayweather hoopla. This helped the numbers and that is why Arum pushed a quick fight. Looks like Arum foced fight fans by giving them a fight where something was shady, what's new. If that little Philipinpo punk does not fight the true WW studs (Mosely & Mayweather), I will not see another match of his. One exception, if he fights Marquez at lightweight where he puss'd out I might be tempted.
