Comments Thread For: Pacquiao-Rios: Taking a Look at The PPV Numbers

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Manny Pacquiao’s ring return served its purpose only in that it put the former eight-division champion back in the win column for the first time in more than two years.

Beyond that, his near-shutout of Brandon Rios may wind up having done more harm than good.

Speculation continues to run rampant over how well – or poor – the November 23 pay-per- view event drew, airing live from CotaiArena at the Venetian Macao in Macau, China.

Poor Pacquiao he's actually a good guy and a hell of a fighter. I wish he could get away from Arum. He doesn't even have to be with Golden Boy he could be independent like Cotto...or get with Cotto and develop their own promotional company.

This could be true it seems the main point of that event was to see how Manny and Shimming did in the Macao market. I didn't see one tv commercial .I Did see it advertised online thou.
