O.k so Pacquiao-Margarito is starting to seem more interesting now..

[FLY TY]

and you didn't order floyd-jmm and floyd-mosley fights as well right?

floyd-jmm was floyd's first fight back after a 2-year layoff...gimme a break.



and WHO thought floyd-mosley would end up as one sided as it was? sure you may have thought floyd would win a UD....but NOBODY saw 11-1 coming.



fact is, the same ppl who looked at clottey's style, and saw manny beating him easily, are the same ones that will look at margarito's 1-dimensional, slow ass, and understand he'll be in for a beating also. especially, minus his wraps.

[street bully]

everyone talking about "selling points".

pacquiao has his fans. margarito has his fans.

the fight will sell. end of.

will it break any records? no.

will it do a million? doubtful.

but it'll still sell.


people forget 300-400k ppv is great number in boxing. that's $15-20 million in revenue on ppv alone.

hell margarito-cotto was very successful and it only did what 500k?

I think it does a million pacquiao brought in 700K against Clottey all on his own. Also that fight had NO marketing, no 24/7, and these fools didn't even have a commercial or posters at the all star game a few weeks befor ethe fight.

[-MAKAVELLI-]

mak, that's still a failure, considering floyd will do at least 1 mil, no matter who he fights....


60-40 anybody?

700K a failure in boxing ppv....i've heard it all

[IMDAZED]

yes it did!

imdazed: "ppl in their homes bought the pac-clottey ppv to see the new stadium"

was that it?

We have intelligent posters like jro and mak.

We have intelligent posters like Tua.

Then we have idiots like you.

The fight does a million. never overlook mexicans since the majority of boxing PPV's are purchased by people from the west coast.

Puerto Ricans will most likely pay for the fight too as well as Filipinos and Mexicans. I am sure the curious African american Market who is longing to see Pac fight Floyd will curiously be ordering it too. IMDAZED, you do not represent ****.

They won't have any of that this time; they won't have as much ESPN coverage; they won't have much of anything this time. Margarito is not the powerhouse he was when he fought Cotto.

Alright. See you in November.

[IMDAZED]

but people bought for someone they DONT know in Clottey? really?


dude, this is boxing...you have one huge name and you have another name that's recognizable, you know it'll do good numbers


the casuals dont sit in message boards and know every freekin detail...they see 2 names they recognize and chances are, they'll wanna watch



****, you have Floyd vs a 107yr old Shane doing over a million...that's because you have one huge name and another that people recognize

In this case, Mak...the fact that people know Margarito is a NEGATIVE.

Co-sign, Margarito without plaster is a club fighter and would follow the trend of Pac being very well matched since Marquez 2. Just because Arum says its a done deal doesn't mean it is, it just means he has no class.
