    I forgot the majority always outweighs the minority... that's why we have Paranormal 4, Scary movie 5 and F&F 6.
    The first one was good and so was the second... but then the third and so on just feel like they're doing it because it makes money, so why not?

      Well duhhhhhh.....if Manny fights Marquez in September or Marquez at all, it should sell more than Floyd-Guerrero. The telling thing about their drawing ability is Floyd did the same amount if PPV's with Ortiz that Manny did with Cotto and Oscar, and more than he did with Margarito.

        Paranormal activity ****** all the way around. One I felt they f**ked up with sequels was SAW. That would have been a great stand alone horror film. Same thing with the RING and Hostel.

          The only thing I would ask for and I know it is asking a lot of Top Rank but actually putting on a solid card to build up some of their lesser known guys by putting them in with guys that could really challenge them.

            He should. He tried in the last Marquez fight by putting Gamboa and Gesta/Vasquez on there... but they were ultimately mismatches.
            Honestly, I don't see how Gesta won rounds in that fight.
            He needs to put together a really good undercard, but I believe he is unwilling to do so because he thinks he can make more by making more events.

              In comparison though, gun to my head, 1 was way better than the rest.
              All pretty boring as crap, but they beat a dead horse with a stick there

                They really don't even have to spend that much to put on quality fights, as long as they are not chasing names. I know Top Rank has to have some exciting guys that need more exposure that are not their bigger name guys.

                Arum is just not a big fan of risk especially when most people have no clue who the guys are anyways, so if nobody knows why not have his guy look amazing.

                  Is he fights Marquez it'll do over 2 million buys

                  Even non-boxing people were talking about it

                  He'll do over 1 million with whoever he fights

                      Pac-JMM is like the SAW of boxing though. I mean really....do we really need a 5th fight???

                      I'd like to see Bradley-Marquez and Manny-Rios, that sounds good to me.

                      But we'll probably end up with Marquez-Manny 5, Bradley-Vargas, and Rios-Khabib.
