Im not arguing that the 154 lb title fight with margs was legit or that the Mosley fight is either I'm jUst saying they were made for financial reasons not because he was ducking the other fighters who the hardcore fans wanted to see him fight. Id rather the guy stay active with fights like these then take 1 fight like this every year and go on vacation.Comment

Not me. I'd rather someone pass me by then try to coax me out of $60. But this is not about Floyd. It's about Manny staying active by charging $60 for fights not worth $6.

Now? As in, before he chose Mosley? I'd like a Berto fight. I'd like a Marquez fight under 140. And Martinez will do just fine. He always has 3-4 options for each fight and he always ends up picking the worst ie Clottey, Margarito (two WTF fights) and now Mosley who he wouldn't fight before May 2010.Comment

Why would team Pac and Arum fight Berto who would sell lesser ppvs then Mosley and cant even draw in his hometown?Now? As in, before he chose Mosley? I'd like a Berto fight.

Simple...because as far as Pacquiao fans go, they in majority have stated that Manny is suppose to be the savouir of boxing. Manny is suppose to be the fighter that does the right thing, he's suppose to be the one that never takes the easy fight, that always fights the hardest challenges out there.
He wasn't suppose to be like "******" mayweather, he wasn't suppose to be a money hungry ******, ya know thats what some pacfans call him.
Well now all of a sudden, Pacfans notice that boxing is about money, and all of a sudden its ok for Manny to fight the easier fights just like Floyd, who was demonized for doing the same thing.Comment

but if JMM fights pac at 47 and wins, you know the tards will give pac full credit. oh the double standardsAll because you're on top of a P4P list(ESPECIALLY A RING MAGAZINE POPULARITY CONTEST) doesn't mean you're fighting the best of the best, and that somehow deserve credit for it. There's so many factors other than rankings.
For example, Floyd beat Marquez, the number 2 P4P fighter when he fought him, he got no credit(and rightfully so) because Marquez had to move up 12 pounds to fight him.Comment

mosley ISNT a ppv draw. he was only relelvant when on the card with dlh, floyd and now pac.
please dont mistake yourself, Mosley has NEVER been a ppv draw, EVER. so he and berto have the same pull when it comes to ppvComment

Exactly, Mosley just was never able to get a hardcore following, he had the fans, they would watch his fights 24/7 if they were free on TV, but he was never able to make people want to spend money on PPV..therefore ur right, he was never a draw.Comment
