Comments Thread For: Pacquiao vs Clottey Lands 700,000 Pay-Per-View Buys

Floyd was ready to fight and you know it. Manny and his team thought Floyd would say that's too soon but he fooled them and said let's go that's when Manny blamed the test. Remember the test was always in the contract from the beginning it wasn't something they just threw in there. Manny didnt wanna fight. Your boy punked out.

Wow...your so delusional. You *****s all think alike. It's like Floyd's brainwash on his fans really makes them believe his BS! Let me fix it for the truth here...

Ok, now that it's the truth, I can rest alil better.

First, the ticket prices in Dallas were so cheap compared to the tickets in Las Vegas. You are looking at a $1000 to a $50 pricing difference in seats.

Second, Floyd knows how to market a fight. He did a wonderful job of marketing his JMM fight.

Thirdly, in a downturned economy the fight should have done a lot better because of an economic term called escapism, which people are looking for a way to escape the dismal stories of the economy i.e. layoffs, gas prices, food prices. People tend to buy items like movies, tickets to basketball games, ppv, etc so your argument does not hold water. Anyway, I saw the same comment from a writer off of Yahoo a couple of days ago.

Exactly these *******s facts in figures couldn't hold up... Even if there were a man on Viagra fresh out of jail turned lose on the whole playboy mansion......

And for people saying the fight wasn't being promote, that's B.S.

It was all over the web, ESPN, Yahoo, ect...even on T.V. at points...

It was being held in Cowboys stadium, the All American team...What more promotion do you need...The Cowboys stadium has been getting talked about since it opened and it's held many events...

Fact of the matter is, with all the promotion in the world it still would have done these numbers...

double? that's only 1.4 they will more than triple that. Count on it

[Shadow boxer 3]

thats pretty damn good considering nobody knows who clottey is

If the Mayweather-Mosley fight do 2million buys or even the 3 million projected by GBP then i dont really know how people would expect Mayweather to get 50% in a Pacquiao fight.

Yeah i can't see how people would expect that too, but i don't think that May vs Mosley does that. I think they do 1.5 to 1.8 realistically and even so Mayweather still would deserve a 60/40 split. One things for sure though is that May has more than enough ammo at the negotiation table now. May vs Pac is looking real bleak and the fans are the ones thats gonna suffer.
