Pacquiao doesn't need "personality"...Floyd does.

[01samuelc]

Pacquiao doesn't need HBO or a 24/7 to sell fights like Floyd does.

Without 24/7, Floyd sells 350k maximum.

Everyone knows this to be true.

See Judah fight.

Thing is i forgot you are actually an analyst- that was before oscar so i mean since you said it can you tell me what method you used to prove floyd sells 350 k in his next fight without 24/7

Pacquiao's bad ass style in the ring speaks for itself. He is a worldwide Mega Star and Hero of Asia.

Not to mention congressman and Boxing Icon.

He doesn't need out of the ring gimmicks.

Pac has personality though. Cotto on the other hand...

Having no personality is better than having a fake one though

He's a star in boxing and a hero of the phillipines. Not Asia as a whole.

Boxing fans look at his style the way he fights. Casual fans can care less.


My sister, who doesn't know **** about boxing except that you throw punches, watched Mayweather-Mosley 24/7 and got excited and wanted to see it. Why? Because of the **** talking back and forth.

My aunt who really doesn't know much about boxing, except Tyson, watching Mayweather-Mosley 24/7 and ended up buying the PPV. Why? The **** talking back and forth.

If you have personality you will sell. That is the entertainment business. Sports are apart of entertainment. Casual fans can care less about the athletes, they become interested by the persona of the athletes. Or the persona of a sports organization(team). Why do you think there are so many Raider fans? Manchester United fans? Why do you think Oscar Dela Hoya sold so many PPVs? Floyd Mayweather sells so many PPVs?

True fans can care less about a persona. But face it, 70% of the people paying to see these fights are casual fans.

You can't polish a turd which is what Mayweather attempts to do because he knows his fights are always a disappointment.

If you are impressed or amused by that, then I don't know what you tell you.

I'd rather have the delivery take place in the ring. Only women give a **** about all that fake ass pre fight hype.

Pacquiao is a natural star, his charisma is evident. Floyd is manufactured, no different than Britney Spears.

[Pension-Killer]

I agree.

I am a boxing fan over an actor or whatever that is

I agree that his act feels manufactured. But I think I would compare him more to that Ke$ha broad over Britney Spears. Both of them like to shout alot about very little.

Why you hating on Britney?

[Pacquiao'd]

haha, is this what the excuses are coming to.

well lets look at what personality brings and lack there of, doesnt bring.

FLoyd=personality=Biggest draw in the sport
Pac=no personality=not the biggest draw in the sport.

class has ended

Lol, it doesn't matter. In the end it's all a business. If you want money, which Floyd does, you will put up that image.

Terrell Owens has an image, Brad Pitt has an image, Derek Jeter has an image, Roger Federer has an image, Cristiano Ronaldo has an image, Oscar Dela Hoya has an image.

In the entertainment business, personality will take you a long way. It's apart of the business. Whether as a fan, you like it or not. It's apart of the business.
