    Pac on "60 Minutes" tonight. Will this help sales?

    By essentially indirectly promoting to a different demographic?

    This boosts his image. It will be as good as turning out for the Nevada election for the ********s would have been.

    He is just gettiung his name out there. Not in the same way as DLH did, but he is doing it. The very idea that you have a politician/boxer is a pretty sinister one.

    Celebrities and politics. I don't like them.

      Last time ***** was on 60 minutes (same time last year), it garnered 16+ million viewers. If 99% of those people see the Pacquiao piece and decide they aren't going to buy the PPV, that's an extra 160,000 buys Top Rank earns.

      So I'm thinking it will help sales, but if nothing else it will introduce Pac and his story to a different demographic (a more mature, informed one).

                I'm hoping it will add to the ppv. What's worrying me is that i've been hearing of Top Rank not properly advertising this fight.
