Ouch...*******s owned again

and after july 2009:

"Shane came to the gym twice to ask me to let him fight Manny," Roach says. "I told him no both times, and both times for the same two reasons: First, there isn't enough money there, and second, you're too good a fighter."

Freddie Roach





OUCH...........

[THE_BIG_HURT]

you kinda answered it for me shane isn't a draw as well as bhop an rjj hasn't been for a while.

but he is a top guy in the sport just not a draw like cotto and pac is.

true but Pac fought a complete nobody (to the average fan) and they were both foreigners (i know clottey lives here but still) and its still the 2nd biggest fight of the year and it drew 40+K.
We know Mosley is a bigger attraction than Clottey because Clottey was never even on PPV before that fight.

its just like Floyd doesnt have that appeal that Mike tyson had you know. Like he cant go to all these other countries and have people go crazy about him.

so like in a completely theoretical theory. If Las Vegas was a city in England and not the U.S. who would do more money there Hatton, Pacquiao, or Floyd?
I think Floyd would place 3rd of the 3.

I dont even know why i'm arguing this because i genuinely do not care lol but i just felt there is plenty of ways to looks at this

The tickets were overpriced so naturally it made more money. If the tickets for Pac-Cotto were overpiced to then it would also make more money.

Damn, son.

You are carrying *******s around in your pocket. Straight ownin' them.

You dumbass.

When something is overpriced, it doesn't sell. Why do you think "sales" exist?

Have you taken Econ 101?

[Versatility]

Roll,

LOL @ the sad excuses.

If The "non-American" can make so much more money fighting back home, why doesn't he?

now *******s claim "mosley is a bigger draw than cotto" but remember when "there wasn't enough money to fight mosley"

i actually went to that pac-clottey, most mexicans an Filipino were there for manny an the americans were there for the stadium.

hell i really just went for the stadium an to see some boxing.

an floyd definitely isn't on Tyson's level of popularity i have relatives that know who floyd is but my grandmother knew who tyson was.

[Carpe Diem]

Damn..That's all i have to say about that..

Where does 11 million rank all time for boxing gates? I gotta guess it is a top 10 gate of all time.
