        His numbers would diminish but I could still see him making close to mil if the opponent is right.

        I also think it would depend on how he lost. Losing a controversial or questionable decision wouldn't completely shatter his image. If he got knocked the fuck out, then things would be a lot different.

          So the rumour goes. But again I'll bring up Anderson Silva. He now has a potential 1 million plus buy rematch because he lost. People aren't going to just walk away. It takes time. They'd want to see if he can recover.

          If Pac actually selected a decent opponent you can bet he would have no trouble selling PPVs too.

              Most people on this site are ****** I came to conclusion. Lets be honest if may really did get 870ppv numbers I can guarantee 800,000 came from may with no nation to support him just him himself that says alot in itself. Think about it I won't even elaborate. If you're smart you'll get it.

                  He won't lose any drawing power, his drawing power might increase if anything, if Floyd were to lose, his next fight would easily be the closest to the Oscar/Floyd PPV numbers you will ever get.

                  But I don't see him losing before retirement, I think his priority is retiring undefeated.

                      I'm sorry but your comparing apples to oranges. Having a loss in boxing is much worse then having a loss in the UFC. Especially when you constantly use your zero as a marketing gimmick.
