    you idiots need to think before you speak
    Unknown to the General Public. If you dont have HBO, I'm sure u never heard of Clottey. Where then is Clottey's PPV history? His only PPV history was with Pac.

      What's your point?

      I don't know what it is about the insecure *******s. You guys have to make Pac #1 in EVERYTHING. It can't be enough that the dude is a terrific fighter. You have to fictionalize his sales, too.

      Just embrace that the little dude can fight. Don't aggrandize or exaggerate.

        here we go again, im going to try it one more time for you.

        clottey is not an UNKNOWN. people know who he is. pac only getting 700k buys reflects only one thing. only 700k people were interested in watching his fight. the the other 500+k people didnt care.

        dont make up an excuse for pacs poor numbers, you cant. people dont care b/c hes not the biggest draw in the sport

          Right, and Shane was about to fight Berto on WCB. Shane's fight vs Margarito was WCB. Shane vs Collazo was WCB. Ad infinitum.

          ...but Shane fights Floyd and it is at record-breaking levels.

          Why's that?

            LOL. bro, you are so blind.... for you to think im a hater is hilarious. only a delusional die-hard floyd fan can make a boxing fan a hater. anytime you guys hear/read anything unfavorable regarding floyd, you all get uppity and assume a person is anti-floyd.... just calm down kid. relax.

            yes, floyd inherited the p4p title... if not, who was the fighter he beat to get it???? dude, thats why its a FICTIONAL ranking system... dont get bent outta shape because your boy isnt #1 anymore.

            manny didnt deserve 50/50 the first time? please... not even worth arguing.
            but like i said numerous times, if floyd beats shane... 60/40 no question.
            an SD or UD will NOT push floyd to #1.... if floyd KOs shane, an argument can be made....

              No additional proof is needed..... the numbers are already in..... the public has spoken again and again and again.....

              When this fight ends up in the 2 mill ppv buy range it will only confirm what we already know.

              If it fails to produce more that 1.5 mill ppv buys..... give pac the 50/50 and lets get it on.

                Like I said before. They both have egos and they both feel that they don't need to fight each other. They do know that the public and the world wants to see them fight, but that doesn't mean that they will bend that easily.

                We can argue all day long on who should get what. But, like I said before, if it's not 50/50, then THERE WILL BE NO FIGHT!!!
                if that happens.... sux to be us!!!

Floyd and his playing the Commision" as well. And I understand that. But I feel like it was almost all ego (from both sides) after that point.

                  arum works for pac, not the other way around.

                  pac can tell arum to cut the BS and make the fighthappen, but he didnt, it falls on pacroid

                      first of all, i dont know who the f** you talking to, champ... how bout you read the rest of the conversation before opening your mouth? you'd realize you misunderstood the post... highlighting what you want and responding to it with some anti ******* rant that wasnt even relative is pointless....
                      LOL. floyd fans are so quick to jump the gun huh? you pick apart 1 thing i said and take it out of context.... the dude was saying that floyd/jmm PPV did better than pac/cotto... so my reply was:
                      • pac/cotto > floyd/jmm (regarding his error)

                      LOL, then you jump in with your post saying some random sh**....
                      seriously, dealing with "*******s" is bad enough, but dealing with "*****s" like yourself is on another level.... you just proved my point in a previous post... a BOXING fan makes a statement that "*****s" dont like, then they all jump in with some baseless/irrelevant posts. LOL. dude, relax.
