Pac is right, Mayweather did price himself outta the fight. But I'm curious. Does that mean I'm supposed to forget about how he and Arum went in full panic mode when Mayweather was calling him out? Does it give Pac a pass for allowing his promoter to do any and everything humanly possible to prevent the fight from happening? I'm just saying.Comment

It unofficially sold 1.4 mil ppvs. But TR did HEAVY advertising during prime time march madness games on a major network (CBS) and high profile cable (TBS) when rates are much higher.
SO it cost much more to promote the pac/mosley fight. So its hard to argue pac generates more when he has to spend so much more to get about the same numbers as floyd.
Of course manny has the 1.5 with JMM last fight. But that can't touch floyd's 2.4 with ODH, a number ODH NEVER got close to with far more popular fighters manny, chavez and tito.
Floyd has earned his spot.Comment

But you can't just limit it to three years. Even then, I think you are wrong. Take Pac/Mosley ppv sales.

It's always been Floyds fault. I'm clearly not a pac tard or a *****. If anything I put Floyd right in there with the ATG's.
It comes down to one thing:
Floyd has often said "self preservation comes first" The only way he's going to fight Pacquiao is if he get's a career ending pay check. He doesn't like the risk involved and would rather grab other big money fights with far less risk. He's preserving his career.
I think Pacquiao has slipped and his heart isn't in boxing snymore, but Maybe a Floyd fight would light the fire. As far as I'm concerned Pacquiao has beat enough Bradley's already, And Cotto only has enough to give Mayweather trouble early.Comment
