How the hell is Arum going to sell Pacquiao-Mosley?

[ThePrince]

Just like he sold Pacquiao-Clottey and Pacquiao-Margarito.

Both of them didnt stand a chance.

Clottey was announced on the heels of the much publicized Pac-Floyd initial negotiations and was the first fight in Jerry Jones' super stadium. Also, Clottey had a tough fight against Cotto that could've gone either way and he was seen as big, strong, iron-chinned opponent who might've been too much for little Manny to handle.

Margarito was the biggest opponent Pac had faced, he was the notorious 'villain' to Pac's clean-cut karaoke-singing hero, known as an all-action fighter, and it was for a history-setting belt, in Dallas.

What appeal does a fight against a near 40 year old who hasn't won in 2 years, with no belt or other significant challenge, in same-old Vegas have?

The appeal will be Manny is finally fighting a great slick american fighter !! They'll probably play on patriotism

Simple. Act like the Mosley vs Floyd fight never happened. Play off Mosley's strong points, and history.

This fight makes no sense to me. Pac will get no credit for the win (as he shouldn't) and like you've stated, what bs are they going to come up with to sell this fight? i don't see a 24/7 here and without one they will struggle to get 1 mil buys. ANything less than 1.2 mil buys and the Floyd fight will never happen because Floyd will never agree to 50-50 and Manny's team will say floyd doesn't want the fight.

there will be a 24/7, despite what people say this will be a big fight and do around 1m-1.1m ppv buys for sure, those haters of pac should realise this when they predictd pac vs margo doing around 800m, it did great business

pac is the biggest name in boxing world wide, he sells the fight on his own
