[QUOTE=dibzvincent143;8332774]Mayweather is in the driver seat and I don't blame him for not wanting to get into the ring with someone he thinks is dirty[/QUOTE
i dont blame pac either. and besides pac's fight are more attractive. he can go after martinez and williams all he want. he ain't puttin people inside dallas.
too much hype, and then what happened? 1.2 m? LOL
1.2 million for a fight with a guy who really don't have much of a following even though he is respected by true boxing fans, that is pretty good and just look at the numbers of PPV Buys for their Common Opponents, Oscar, Hatton, Marquez, Mayweather numbers are all much higher so again Mayweather is in the drivers seat and he will continue to sell regardless because people (like yourself) are desperate to see him lose
fans will lie to make their favorite fighter look good but the actually numbers don't lieComment

im not desperate to see him lose, in fact i want to him, and its okay for me if he really wins against pac. coz i know both of them deserves it regardless who the winner is.1.2 million for a fight with a guy who really don't have much of a following even though he is respected by true boxing fans, that is pretty good and just look at the numbers of PPV Buys for their Common Opponents, Oscar, Hatton, Marquez, Mayweather numbers are all much higher so again Mayweather is in the drivers seat and he will continue to sell regardless because people (like yourself) are desperate to see him lose

mosley is more known than cotto. anywhere around the globe but hasn't been to an attractive fight for so long. and the truth is mayweather has a dance partner on this one.
im sure floyd's also disappointed. i know he's a draw, and i expected it to be somwhere at 1.7 or 1.8m.Comment

regardless...anytime you go over 1 million that is a win for any Promotion, sure they would have liked more obviously but nobody can be upset with reaching over 1 million PPV buys and why are fans so obsessed with PPV Numbers all of a sudden, it is not like they are getting any of that moneyComment

I see grown men are still babying the "Hero of Asia" and "Fighter of the Decade". SMH. There is no way he be a fighter and champ for this long and NOT be mentally strong. If adversity in the ring can't break him mentally (see his wars), then blood tests can't. Let's be real here.Comment

So simple. Floyd needs to have an advantage first to at least have a chance against pac. The sad reality that the *****s can't accept.Comment

i truly understand your statement bro.Mosley is not even close to Cotto when it comes to doing PPV numbers, Cotto is loved on the East Coast especially NY and he also has an entire country behind him, when you have fighters who have entire countries behind them and can tap into the international market then yes the numbers will always be a little higher, this fight involved two American fighters it wasn't any other country involved, Mayweather is well known obviously but Mosley has never had much of a drawing power and when Mayweather kept saying that long before they agreed to fight people thought Mayweather was using it as an excuse to avoid Mosley, but now when the numbers come back and they are not as high as some projected then some how it falls on Mayweather "well you see Mayweather is not that big of a draw" when in actuality it was MOSLEY who has NEVER been a big PPV draw

Miguel Cotto is a bigger draw than Shane Mosley.Originally posted by dibzvincent143 View Post
1) freddie roach and bob arum said cotto is bigger
2) Cotto-Margarito = 450K buys, Shane - margarito = wcb
3) Shane has never , ever carried a PPV on his own
4) Shane-Collazo (& mayorga)= wcb in an empty mandalay Bay
5) Shane-Berto was headed to wcb
6) Shane has never sold out an arena, Miguel does it all the timeComment

If Mayweather-Mosley outsells Pacquiao-Cotto, that is embarrassing for Pacquiao's fans. Because Roach said this:
DT – Shane Mosley pushed hard for a fight with the Ninja. Why did Manny decide to fight Cotto instead of Shane?
FR – It wasn’t Manny’s decision. It was my decision and the group’s decision. The main reason? We will make more than twice as much money fighting Cotto than Mosley.
Thanks for going on the record, Freddie.
