Similar to those Pacquiao fan celebrations on YouTube where the living rooms are packed. Imagine if each of those people ordered the PPV separately.
    IDK man... I watched the Floyd fight with about 12 people at my brothers but I ordered the fight at my condo for my girl and her cousin...

      My friend that's wishful thinking, even before his fight with Cotto the man was barely a blip on the Mexican radar screen I can only imagine how much more a dive his popularity has taken since then.

            My point is Manny's last ppv didn't sell as much as expected. It does hurt manny at the negotiaiting table because it his bottom line numbers (ppv sales and live gate) are not in line with his popularity.
            taking it there to point out we don't care, and neither should you
            what they make is none of our business
            assuming you talking about Floyd, call it 50-50, period
            both can bitch all they want but neither deserves anything more
            nobody else can demand equal money with Pac, so it's moot
            this shit is gay, fuck what other men are making
            buy it if you want, if not, plenty ways to watch PPV for free

              i think he was embrace after he beat cotto.

              that is why staples sell out for mosley fight.

                How would you know? Mayweathe-Mosley made more at the gate than Pacquiao-Clottey and Pacquiao-Clottey had more than double the fans. That proves that there is a huge demand for Mayweather tickets because the fans are willing to pay a lot more to watch him fight.

                    PPV is more or less an American institution (Canada and PR included), and the vast majority of Pacquiao fans are Filipino for obvious reasons. Still, Pacquiao is a PPV powerhouse despite being foreign and having English as his second language. He's averaging 1 million buys in his last 4 PPV fights.

                    If they had PPV for his fights in the Philippines, he'd routinely have buys in the 3-5 million range probably.

                      Because his tickets are far more exspensive than Manny's.
