Why are the Pac-tards butthurt iam i missing somthing here this is good for boxing as a whole

I don't know but he makes more in an hour or less of a fight than you make in your lifetime I bet. Who cares, he is a multi-millionaire many times over and no one on these boxing boards will ever see anything like what he makes.

It's funny that it gets you so upset.

Know what? I don't need any loans or advances from Bob Arum

They are upset that Floyd (who they hate so much) had a great week.

An exciting fight. A big win. A lot of positive press....and he outsold their idol by 34 percent in PPV and 37 percent at the gate.

This logic is so off it's ridiculous. Cotto brings an exclusive 600k buys that wouldn't be there if Floyd were fighting someone else?

If 600k is cottos pulling power, plus Canelo's people's mexican holiday and him being the anointed mexican new star. That sure brings in a cool 1m for Cotto and Canelo alone.

the 500k must be Floyd's and Mosely and the remaining under cards. Damn Floyd is slipping..

Why do hardcore fans of boxing care how many PPV's their favorite fighter sells or how big the gate is? Oh yeah, they don't! Cong**** to Miguel and Floyd for an entertaining scrap, nuff said.

Because floyd regularly puts in road blocks to prevent the super fight from happening. When we can see clearly that he ain't pulling massive numbers and need other stars to help him generate interest were as pac goes at it alone. Their numbers only shows they aren't far from each other.

Their fight should be a 50/50 fight even more so for pac coz he doesn't need an entourage to pull in great numbers..

that said. Floyd's numbers are pretty lame seeing that he has 3 other stars in there.

Canelo, Cotto, Mosely contributed for the 1m and the 500k is for Floyd.

That just shows Floyd's current state. that's pretty small, at the most 700k and that's being generous.

If he uses this numbers to say he is better than Pac in ppv if pac does 1.3ppv with Bradley it just shows he is ducking and dodging again..

We all know Bradley has no fan base and it's all pac doing whatever PPV numbers Pac generates in that fight.

Awwww....it'll be ok little fella!

[kingfaze19]

no wonder manny n floyd aint never gonna fight each other, theyre makin millions anyway. people gonna tune in no matter who they fight so why should they feel pressured to face each other. the day pac-floyd happens is when they put up bad ppv numbers vs somebody else.

and these numbers are not just because of floyd, canelo is the pacquiao of mexico so u know he brought in some buys too, and shane old a.ss still got some fans out here.

Not going through all these pages...saw first few so ill take it from there....

1.4-1.5 is what i about expected. Good solid numbers, and Floyd sells better than anyone else out there. He knows playing the a hole makes people want to pay to hope to see him lose. Canelo Mosley i think added about 175-200k (just guestimating). Just shows once again how GBP continues to outshine TR when putting headliners together with great and known undercards to the masses.

As for the point someone made about Oscar.....heres the reality...24/7 has propelled PPV buys times 100. Imagine if they had a 24/4 for Oscar Tito or Hopkins....Floyd is a great showman, but GBP continuing to put out great cards, and 24/7...if DLH or Tyson had 24/7 back then....this 2.4 record ppv buys i think is broken long before 2007. Not taking nothing away from anyone that night, but thats just reality.

[Phil Ivey]
