    GBP pulled a Bob Arum and didn't release those numbers, not to my knowledge he didn't. Let's just call it a flop. Probably under 100k.

          They don't come out for him anywhere near like they did for Morales or Barrera, though. Guess he ain't pretty enough.

            Right.. so it might be more of an indication of what Mosleys opponents can sell, moreso than Mosley when talking about De La Hoya or Floyd...

              mosley is the bigger b-side opponent. mosley's numbers against wifebeater did better than jmm's numbers against wifebeater. numbers don't lie.

                Because Mosley was considered an actual threat at the time to Floyd..

                It peaked interest in the matchup.

                JMM at welterweight?

                Not so much.

                Numbers can lie.

                  In Vegas I might give Shane a slight edge if we're comparing Shane and JMM fighting no-namers. Against Pac I would say JMM would be the bigger Vegas draw because of their two previous wars.

                  Also remember, Shane stunk up Vegas against Sergio Mora. People don't always forget that ****. I still say if Shane wants a shot at Pac he should pull off some impressive wins first.

                  After Marquez's epic fight Saturday night, it's pretty clear to me who should get the shot.
                  Shane v mora was staples center in la no?


                  I don't see any situation right now where Shane draws more than jmm for a PAC fight. Unless the did it in northern Canada and all those stinkin Eskimos would take all the tix.

                      Mosley at WW imo is a bigger threat then JMM at WW..They both look like **** the last time they fought there but Mosley has more experience at the weight...
