Comments Thread For: Pacquiao Talks, Kizer: Mayweather-Ortiz Lacks Buzz

[indystress]

to bad pac ducked all those slick african american fighters and only fought one mexican (that most thought won both fights). funny roach says pac can get to 140 easy. then why force jmm to come up to 144? why not make the fight at 140? because here we go again pac using any means to get an advantage before the fight. they hope jmm will be really slow at 144 and easy pickings for pac. well jmm is no easy pickings for anyone.

those slick african americans got beaten up by the cottos, clottey, and margaritos...all of whom pac destroyed. and how about ortiz beatin up on a slick boxer, maybe not of african american decent, but he does fight like one...BTW, your slick african american bradley and alexander are highly over rated and would get killed by pac

Mayweather is the biggest PPV seller in boxing.

PBF vs Hatton vs ODLH vs JMM vs SSM all outsold MP vs the same four opponents.....an undeniable FACT, that seems to be conveniently ignored over and over again.

Canelo and Morales are not very significant in determining how many PPV's this fight sells, and neither is Ortiz for that matter. Mayweather will be the one who sells the PPV.

not by miuch for common opponants...plus, what do u expect? a foreigner to outsell an american in his own country? do you think the australian national basketball team would draw more fans than team u.s. in the u.s? GTFO...

and this thing about fraud saying that clubbing and throwing money, etc...is all about hyping the ortiz fight...BUT GUESS WHAT? thats what he does even when he is on vacation...so who was he hyping the fight for when he was on vacation clubbing and bragging and throwing money, etc...?

fraud has some of the most ridiculous excuses ever known to mankind...only a fool cannot see that.

the PPV number only account for hbo viewership numbers in the u.s. fraud outsells pac by not much, maybe by a 2 to 1.5 ratio...pac outsells fraud worldwide easily buy 1000 to 1...AUTOMATIC

If chicken Floyd is fighting somebody else and not Manny Pacquiao...then it will just be another comedy show. Nobody will spend their precious time and money to watch a boring fight. Today people see chicken Floyd as a big liar, coward and cheater, nobody believes him anymore. If he likes to see people getting interested in his fights again then he should take the test. MANNY PACQUIAO IS THE TEST and the world would like to see chicken Floyd taking the test. A number of good fighters took the test. They failed but boxing afficionados around the world respect all these fighters that took the test because these fighters are brave fighters and not cowards...with chicken Floyd, he will be remembered as a cowering chicken that quacks.

You've got to realized that Mayweather is an American and Pacquiao is Asian from the Philippines. Filipino doesn't go for PPV cause it's free to watch. Only overseas based Filipinos go for PPV and still a very large amount.

[Stl_Buay]

Look as far as Floyd selling more PPV than Manny it's silly and BS... Everytime you retire and come back its a good ploy to sell tickects. Leonard vs. Howard and LaLonde and Tyson vs McNeely. I also think the Marquez and De La Hoya fights were scheduled on Mexican Holiday weekends. Bottom Line Floyd is Afro American so he has a drawing base of 35 million African Americans and 300 million Americans. Manny is Filipino and not Filipino American so that means he has about 1 million Filipinos to pool from in the US and you guys want to brag because Floyd might out sell Manny by 1 or 2 hundred k a couple of fights??? HE should out sell Duhh.... Would we be surprised to find out that Manny is a bigger draw than Floyd in the PI or Asia for that matter??? Plus Bottom line from 2005 to 2011 Manny has outsold Floyd if you add up all their numbers. An active fighter can't sell to his fans an coming out of retirement fight or a 16 month lay off fight. But if you add up all of their PPV Manny has outsold Floyd. Plus Manny's numbers against Cotto and Margaritos were better than Floyd's against those fighters....

jesus even donaire can be a 10 division champ these days..........
you only need Arum as your promoter...

10 division? How many 6 division fighters Arum has right now? I guess Arum only promotes Pacquiao right?

[Skills_Vs_Pills]

Didn't you hear! It sold so many PPVs that they are still counting. You will have to take Bob Arum's word that it sold 1.3 million just like everyone in the boxing media did.

lmao.........f**king hilarious.

Even with all that cbs promotion, that joke of a fight was still a giant FAIL.

*******s won't ever admit it, but deep down, they KNOW Floyd is and always has been the real cash cow.

Cash cows fight less and make more.

Smart businessmen also KEEP MORE of the money they help generate.

Pac is neither.

[DeadScared]

The Pac can never outsell Floyd in PPVs in America because FLOYD IS AMERICAN! Don't we ever forget that!!! Although frankly, I'm not that sure anymore.

[micahmix]

with a lot of help coming up in this ppv...if he were to sell more in this fight than in any of his previous ppv,it won't surprise me considering who's on this ppv

Good help is hard to find

There’s not much buzz over the upcoming showdown where WBC welterweight champion Victor Ortiz puts his title on the line against the undefeated Floyd Mayweather Jr. at the MGM Grand Garden Arena on September 17.
