Pacquiao-Margarito at 1.1 Million PPV Buys... well short of Mayweather's 1.4 million.

[Evil Abed]

Great numbers for the fight.

Pac and Floyd dominate the PPV market.

Its a shame that Floyd is so inactive.

When was the last White American boxer that was on top of the boxing world?

Kelly Pavlik, 3 years ago. Should have won FOTY in 2007 over Floyd.

[KnockoutKings]

dude. you are making up excuses. a fighter who sells, sells. regardless of style, race or country they are from. just let it go.

fac tof the matter if that pac has the fan friendly and causal fan style. had tons of promo even using mayweathers name talking about bs second "negotiations" and has the media sucking his **** but floyd still outsells him.

has nothing to do with floyd being an american but floyd being the biggest draw in the sport...period

I'm not making any excuses. I seriously wanted to know. All this talk about Pacquiao and Black Americans, got me thinking of White American boxers. Another question, If Pac sells because of his style, why does Floyd sell so much?

[Sweet Jesus]

Since when, would 1.1 million buys be disappointing? Someone explain this? It was only Margarito. Is there a source for this?

since you expect 1.5 mil plus.

Floyd vs Mosely===> Estimated: 2.4 to 3M buys ==>Actual: 1.4
PAc vs Margacheato ===> Estimated: 1.5 buys==>Actual: 1.1 ++

b/c floyd is a more polarizing and popular figure. hes more known. simple as that

[jrosales13]

Very impressive numbers from Pac.

[ALG United]

i hope this dont not mean gayweather want 60/40 because he out sales manny again.

hbo lie on the numbers. manny sells 1.6 million buys.

ako pa ha!

Hoy Bakla!!! Pinoy ka ba talaga??!!!!

[featherFist]

Great numbers considering the economy.

.... not to mention the amount of Naggers riding on American tax paying citizen's dollars have increased!

Floyd Mayweather = American; Americans = Patriots; Patronizing = Mayweather

Manny Pacquiao = FES (70's show); American Market = on Music, Movies, Sports is tough to crack especially by an outsider; PACMAN = not American

If Pacquiao and Mayweather fights outside of USofA. Pacquiao will dominate the numbers!

1.1 million PPV buys inside the USofA for non-American fights is not something to snide about!

[joelab75]

doesnt matter. who sells besides floyd thats american. so the american bit doesnt work

doesnt work? really? who was the last non american boxer who ever had atleast 700K ppv buys not name Manny? NONE!

so being American has everything to do in U.S. PPV buys.
