    Oscar was a draw his entire career,
    Floyd and Manny,

    just a portion. No, they are not bigger than Oscar ever was and most likely won't be. For being a poster who is usually level headed, you're tilting quite a bit right now and its strictly because you hate DLH with a passion.
    Because, that is the best way to compare it.

    I can go on another way and say Pac has a million+ buys 3 years in a row and Oscar doesn't. Is that more fair way to compare it?

    Floyd 2 PPV numbers=Oscar 2 biggest PPV numbers. Do you prefer that way to compare?

    If and is a big IF they're not bigger now(Which nobody has yet put any proof whatsoever in showing there are not)They're just as big now than Oscar was.

        Go ahead, its all there for you to research.

        Post 15 years worth of PPVs, to 5.

        You want total or average?

          Okay brother, as of RIGHT NOW. He does. No if's, and's or buts! But if Pacquaio actually fights a live body, that might be a different story! Pac/Martinez SHOULD do about 1.5 million ppv buys. Which IMO, would give Manny the edge! It's all up to both Manny, and Floyd. Floyd's proven he can draw flies to ****e, and Manny is well on his way!

            Well if Floyd-Pac gets made we will if that record stands or we would have a new one.

              Why?

              DLH was a draw his entire career. How can you hold that against him?

              Because you hate him.

              The best way to compare to see who the bigger draw is to see what they did in their whole career and not make up some lame benchmarks to suit your agenda.

                I suggest average, that's how statistics work and as you suggested, make it HBP PPVs first then followed it up by all PPVs. Let's see.

                  No he doesn't, he just averages more per fight. But in volume/total Pac has produced more buys P.O. (Post Oscar) because of activity vs 'vacation'. Floyd averages 1.1 mil buys from Hatton-Mosley, Manny averages 1 mil from Hatton-Margarito. And if you take out Clottey (only non 24/7 fight) then both guys have averaged 1.1 million buys after Oscar in their 3 fights that featured a 24/7.

                  Manny generated 2.1 million buys in 2009 to Floyd's 1 million and 1.9+ million in 2010 to Floyd's 1.4 million... not to mention Manny brought in about 90,000 fans into Cowboys stadium.

                  The only difference is the Oscar fight, and DLH was unquestionably the A side in both fights, so that doesn't speak to Manny and Floyd's ability to headline a card.

                    Yeah. Ideally, if Manny would MAN-THE-FAWK-UP and take the OST. What a coward. I'm sorry *******s, but your hero needs to take the tests, NOW! Otherwise, he's guilty until proven innocent!

                      I never picked a certain time, I keep saying at any point in time. Floyd and Pac are bigger draw than Oscar ever was.
