    I was shocked that Pac vs Clottey did 700K+ on PPV, but I won't be shocked if Mosley vs Mayweather does 1.5-2Mill because it was a high profile fight.

    It doesn't matter how the fight is billed .... You can be loved hated whatever... As long as you put asses in the seats your doing your job.... Mayweather does that masterfully.... On the other hand it's Bob Arum fault that fight flop.... Greed is a mother****er ...... A bird in the hand beats two in the bush every time.....

      You must be another effing idiot. Arum already stated that the team is not going to back down. And that he won't lose any sleep if the fight doesn't happen. Likely scenario is Pac winning in yet another impressive win over a non-FM opponent. Then Pac fans will gloat about it for weeks. At which point Pac maintains top spot once again. Mayweather's so-called negotiating advantage goes down the drain including his 50/50 split.

      Stop dreaming, bro. Savor Mayweather's win while it lasts.

        Agree 100%

            Their Nike sponsored Team Pacquiao track-pants are being turned into fudge factories as we type.

                It always was a fair compromise.... The truth is Bob is getting Intel from a inside source (s) .... That the fight is doing huge numbers.... This is just bargaining... They will allow random OST with out any cut off dates.... In the hopes of getting the fight at a 50/50 deal....... Fact......
                To generate those big numbers they need each other. Anything else is a let down. The only ones I see in panic mode are the hardcore Pac fans. I'm more excited than ever to see this fight get made

                      That may be true but who's fault is that? Maybe Pac should get a new Promoter, after all it is the Promoter's job to get people to watch the fight.

                      As of now Top Rank and the rest of the promoters out there need to take notes on how Golden Boy has been promoting mega-fights.
