The Manny Pacquiao-Erik Morales duel will not just be about two excellent athletes, it will be about arguably the two biggest attractions in boxing.
That is why the March 19 fight, although no belts at are at stake, promises to bring the action to the fans, and the revenue to whoever is behind making the fight possible.
“Erik’s last fight with Barrera did three times the amount of buys as the heavyweight champion of the world Vitali Klitschko and Danny Williams,” Top Rank President Todd DuBoef said in an interview with www.boxingscene.com during the fight promotion in Mexico.
“The fight before that, against Carlos Hernandez in the unification bout, did one and a half times more. So the message is that Erik is really the heavyweight of the world as regards an attraction.” And Pacquiao isn’t occupying a less billing come March.
The fight's gonna be the biggest BLOCKBUSTER in boxing's modern times!
