I'll take a stab:
vs Floyd: 2.6M (I think they missed the boat for this fight. People might be tired of waiting for it)
vs PW: 1.6M (if PW wins and top rank markets the bout like a game of death. I think the novelty of it will draw people in)
vs JMM3: 1.1M
vs Martinez: 850k
vs: Bradley: 1MComment

I really think a fight against Williams or Martinez would do better than expected numbers. And after casual fans watch them get it on this Saturday (with the rebroadcast of last week's fight), one of them sees their star rise.I'll take a stab:
vs Floyd: 2.6M (I think they missed the boat for this fight. People might be tired of waiting for it)
vs PW: 1.6M (if PW wins and top rank markets the bout like a game of death. I think the novelty of it will draw people in)
vs JMM3: 1.1M

Williams has a better resume than clottey and margriato. Also a lot of people would think williams/martinez has a good chance to beat pac as his last two opponents in margriato and clottey are poor. Anyone have predictions or just off topic stuffComment

LOL at this clown. Margo fought Mosley, Pac, Cotto, Clottey and Many more, of course he didn't some of those.Comment

Bradley is overrated. He will fall like a log...I'll take a stab:
vs Floyd: 2.6M (I think they missed the boat for this fight. People might be tired of waiting for it)
vs PW: 1.6M (if PW wins and top rank markets the bout like a game of death. I think the novelty of it will draw people in)

again you are speaking to the hardcore when you bring in arguments like resume
casual fans is what you are after and things like resume kind of fall on deaf ears.
PWill has never been a draw both in live gate and in TV ratings and while the aspect of maybe going for a 9th division title might be a nice selling point in the end people want to see Manny fighting the best stars in the game
PWill, Martinez, Bradley etc are not starsComment

All good points, although I think the size difference would make the Williams fight intruiging enough to sell. Of course it is hard to imagine Arum making a Pacquiao fight with Haymon not involving Floyd. Not enough money to sooth big egos and bury bitter feelings from the failed Pavlik-Williams matchup.again you are speaking to the hardcore when you bring in arguments like resume
