    There is absolutely nothing to gain for Pacquiao here. Pacquiao would make the same amount of money if he fought JMM or Berto.

    anytime you make 15-20 million for one nights work is a win win in my book, but since you are a ****sexual chapati you would think otherwise.

        I don't know if you ever been to the east coast, but PAC isn't as known as you think he is over here.

        You're probably right, people don't talk about Mayweather or Mosley, Mosley's name is known in every corner of this country.

                Neither will he get credit for beating a 40 year old who hasn’t won a fight in over two years.

                I also think your very much overrating Pac’s star status.
                I'm not overrating anything. I'm not even Pac's biggest supporter, but he's without question the figurehead of the sport and he's gotten his share of notoriety and publicity. Being on the cover of Time Magazine doesn't come by being a mediocre figure.

                Am I overly excited about the Mosley fight? Not necessarily, but people are still going to watch this fight, even the people who are frontin like they're going to "boycott" the fight (lol...just like the Margarito fight).

                  lets see how the numbers compare to Floyd vs Mosley.

                      I'm one who believes Pacquiao vs Mosley will sell less than Mayweather vs Mosley, but is that going to prevent people from purchasing another Pacquiao PPV after the Mosley fight? Of course not...

                      Consistency is key. As long as Pacquiao continues to fight and Mayweather doesn't, Pacquiao will technically be generating more PPV buys and would be receiving more notoriety.
