Dan Rafael: Accurate sources tell me Pacquiao/Bradley did 950,000 buys

[ADP02]

The hypejob that was the fighting fraud of the failippines has run its course. Nobody wants to listen to your idiocy.

Cool story!

Like I was expecting ...... you can't really argue at the facts that were presented so you attack the opponent ..... mind you an opponent for Floyd that everyone wanted to see fight against .... an opponent that has been the #1 most talked about opponent for Floyd for 3 years now. We have a separate thread made specifically for Floyd vs Manny .... yet you guys keep on downgrading Manny ....

Which brings me to my other point .... did you guys ever want this fight to be made if Manny was such an easy fight? If Manny was so easy, why did we talk about Manny must be taking PEDs for 3 years now? If its so easy, Floyd would have already fought Manny. You guys make me laugh!!!

Why are you so upset that floyd sr accussed manny of ped use but not upset with manny for not simply taking them and proving him wrong? I mean no matter how you feel about the ost request, manny's response "im afraid of needles" and "giving blood weakens me" were shameful.

[ADP02]

What does this have to do with Manny selling 950k vs Tim Bradley?

You may need to read what the other poster stated but ..... come on .... nobody would really care this much about these numbers if Floyd would have said OK to 50/50 ...

I'm upset? I guess you didn't read my last line where I said "You all make me laugh!!!"


We need to go back to all this again? Manny lost to Morales after taking blood ... Manny said Floyd wants the psychological advantage in this and didn't like the fact of being accused by not just Sr but most of Floyd's team .... Floyd included! .... BUT as soon as Manny agreed, Floyd put up another roadblock.

How many times does Floyd need to put roadblocks (Testing with cutoffs, no cutoffs, on an extended vacation, Manny your next ... I never said that .... I can't ask to change what the judge told me but then makes a request for home arrest ...... I WANT ALL PPV money.

and how many times does Manny need to accept Floyd's roadblocks until you see the light?

Manny has to deal with these "roadblocks" because he wasn't man enough to accept 50/50 and random OST in dec 09. If manny accepted then everything else that follows doesn't happen.

Like I said, why are we discussing this in this thread. This thread is about Manny selling 950k ppvs vs Tim Bradley. A damn good number. Unfortunately for manny fans like you it shows that manny is the #2 draw in boxing.

Instead of celebrating that, you are here hating on floyd. There isn't anything wrong with being #2.

[Brockton Lip]

Better numbers than I was originally hearing so thats good.

With that said, the contents of this thread are dissapointing...

Pac and May won't fight so arguing over 50/50 and OST is pointless. When will you learn?
Also, neither Pac or May are hypejobs. Both are superstars.

My comments were not towards those of you who said "good". It was towards those that are using these "good" numbers to state that therefore Floyd should continue with his roadblock of "I deserve all the PPV money or no fight" .... so I responded to such a poster (not hard to find such posters here!)

I wished Manny said yes back then because all I care about is seeing the fight .... but objectively, you should be able to understand why he said no ..... I don't care how much money Manny will make as long as I see the fight but can you see Manny accepting "I, Floyd, WANT ALL PPV MONEY"?

Manny appears to reconsider and accept but Floyd keeps on with new roadblocks!

I advocated for manny to turn down $40 mil no ppv because i thoght it was a ****ty deal. But then the Forbes numbers came out (i have them in my sig). IMO, that changed things somewhat. $40 mil is far more than the $28.5 mil avg manny makes per fight (which includes ppv). So relative to the fight, its a small piece but relative to manny's income, its significant.

IMO Manny deserves anywhere from 30-35%. Lets hope floyd offers this and lets hope manny accepts. I too want to see the fight.
