    Oscar always sold well no matter who he fought. I knew girls that bought all his ppv's. What made it funny is that they never watched any other boxing or had an idea of who he was fighting, they just wanted to see Oscar. Other fighters alway more money fighting Oscar than anybody else.

        because even if oscar was past prime he was still a pretty exciting fighter

        and mayweather was the coming up best fighter of this generation

          lol these fools weren't even watching boxing back when May-ODLH was on...but the recession has to be the reason Manny can't sell as much as Oscar or Floyd

              The MGM has a 16800 seat arena....over 8,400 Brits flew over from England? really?
              Actually something like 30,000 British fans went over. They were only allocated a small amount of tickets at the MGM.

                  It did very well in the PPV;
                  But Floydie Jr didn't Give
                  Oscar another chance!

                  Why don't they make
                  Floydie-Oscar II fight?
                  and let see how will
                  it fare in PPV!

                    Nobody took that fight seriously.. everybody thought oscar was going to stomp pacquiao.

                    Being PfP #1 doesnt mean anything if nobody thinks you can win.

                      Where is the proof of this?
