Keep referring to "poor numbers again" with Clottey, I disagree. 700k was 2nd highest PPV this year with only 2 months promo and no 24-7 but still had a 50K gate which is third highest in US boxing history. That's pretty strong.
Put Mayweather in against Clottey with no 24-7 and only 2 months to market fight in Dallas with Jerry Jones and GBP behind him, and I'm not so sure he sells the same but I do know no way does he get 50k fans. His last two fights weren't even sell outs.
Also, forget Vegas influence other than PPVs. There's a lot more going on behind scenes. Pacquiao brings in asian whales, and almost single-handedly took Vegas out of 2 year slump with Cotto fight...they want Pacquiao even more so than Mayweather....and casinos are the REAL players here even more than HBO, I'd argue.Comment

I agree they weren't poor considering the opponent and the circumstances
This is why Margarito is chosen for Nov 13th fight. He gives Manny the best chance of getting the PPV numbers necessary to demand a 50-50 split.Comment

Very true. I agree. Sure didn't stop them from asking for 50/50. Now these f*gs are just making up ****
