Comments Thread For: Arum Not Worried About Pacquiao Matching Floyd's Stats

[GRUSTLER]

Sorry my dude; but the 1st Cotto vs Margarito fight was not on HBO, it PPV. Cotto vs Clottey was regular HBO. I have the tapes, looked it up, put in on and def PPV from July 26 08. Here's the full fight from HBO.com http://www.hbo.com/boxing#/boxing/fi...GyMQIAUKwXOA==
and if you pay close attention to the banners around the arena as the fight is on, you can see the signs of "HBO PPV"
Just wanted to point it out, Margs vs Cotto 1 and 2 were both PPVs

True, thanks for pointing that out. So why do I remember seeing that on regular HBO?

Disgusting & repugnant Floyd Fluffers such as yourself are just as bad if not worse. This is the same fan base, that tried to make excuses & defend floyd for every ****** incorrect thing he says from comparing his drug crusade to the civil rights struggle of dr. martin luther king & malcolm x to flyod's racist, xenophobic rant, beating his baby mama to floyd's disrespect of past great fighters because he's undefeated & they are not.

You wnat to talk about parroting? That is a Floyd Stan Specialty. From parroting floyd's i got paid 20 mill in one night vs the big show, to floyd's continued character assassination of pac using steroids, to how much bob arum takes off of pac's check...

the list is endless.

Get off your false sense of fake moral high ground along with your feigning neutrality and grossly exaggerated fake boxing knowledge.

Dont act like floyd fans are above reproach. Its a two way street here.

& no, Floyd did not hit 1 mill ppvs vs hatton. Talk about living in a magical world.

Grow up dude, and if you are a grown man then it's clear you're handicapped in which case I apologize.

Actually it did over 2million worldwide.

If manny could outsell floyd, he would have done it already. WHenever they fight the same guy, floyd outsells manny. The only time he didn't was manny's 3rd fight with JMM. Of course manny's 1st fight with JMM wasn't on ppv.

Why are we even talking about this. Manny is #2 and always will be. If he wants to be #1, go fight outside the US and sell ppv's only in the Phillipines.

I 've been saying this all the time ; Mayweather is overhyped by US media. People just watch his fights because they want to see him lose. Once he does, it's over. Also, his ppv buys are because people pay to see the other fighter. Cotto drew many fans, Canelo too. Credit should be given to them, after all it was Cinco de Mayo!!!!!

So everytime floyd fights, its the other guy people want to see. Yet when these other fighters fight on ppv against anyone else, they don't do as well.

Your argument and logic is ridiculous.

[Oh you out son]

well according to the article pac vs cotto did 1.4m ppv

mayweather vs cotto and mosley vs canelo did 1.5m ppv

mayweather needs another 2 big names to boost his numbers it seems while pac has his own and one other only

pac is just as big a draw. mayweather's recent opponents have just been some of the biggest names. Mosley - well known fighter to the public, my dad has heard of him and he never follows boxing. Cotto has a massive puerto rican following, just look at all his fanboys on this site and it tells you something.

did mayweather-jmm do more than pac-jmm 3, im not sure of this one?

Did we even get word from HBO regarding pac-jmm 3? And I'd say Victor Ortiz is not a big draw--or wasn't when Floyd fought him.
