LMAO. Hanz getting owned hard in this thread.

jesus youre an idiot lol, i feel bad for you.

you gotta be one of thee dumbest mu****as in here kid. pac DESERVED(at the time) 50/50 because him and fmj were the #1 & #2 p4p fighters in the world at the time. how often does anyone get to see a fight of that magnitude happen where #'s 1&2 p4p fight eachother? has it ever happened before?

fanboys, fuhkboys, promotional d1ckriding boys........need to get a life

so since pac and tim were very close p4p wise that means tim shoulda got 50-50 vs pac? thats not how things work buddy

These numbers averaged out to $10 million, which is a really good number. However, this is only the Vegas numbers. The Pac/Margarito fight in Texas only generated a live gate of $6.5 million and I am sure the live gate for the Rios fight was lower than this. His numbers are better than any other boxer not named Mayweather, but they also demonstrate why he doesn't deserve 50 percent of the revenue in a Mayweather fight.

Again, Mayweather puts up american heavyweight numbers. Dead american heavyweight division, where did all the ppv sales Holyfield and Tyson sold go? They went to Mayweather, he puts up heavyweight numbers not walterweight numbers. As far as Pacquiao, sounds to me like good numbers still. Top Rank just needs to do a better job is all, and they need to stack Pacquiao undercard to show customers a great event from start to finish so when people buy any Top Rank ppv they won't have to look at who's fighting they can trust it will be world class like a Mayweather event. You know they putting the best card they can without worrying about who fighting.

That is an interesting graph, for anyone saying Bradley is not a draw Cotto, Mosley and Hatton all did similar gates to Bradley most people would consider all of them (yes even Mosley) bigger stars. I think this last one being a bit lower is fully explainable by the lackluster first fight, which sucks for Manny because the 2nd fight was better entertainment.

If you reversed the order of the two fights, I do think the second fight would have done quite a bit better.

Take also the $70 PPV Price tag and a not-so good undercard I think put alot of people off from buying.

I think most of the posters in here didnt even cared to read the article
