    l doubt it would be half as high as those numbers, maybe even way way less than half. l think only hard cores would be interested and their number isn't big enough to match the purses that floyd and pac would be asking.

    tr just has to keep their pr machine going.

    keep controversy going over pac injury.

    floyd can start some other stuff later to keep media talking.

    media will eat it up.
    No amount of controversy and pr can erase the debacle of the first fight imo.

      IMDAZED, I don't think so either, except if someone gives him $100 mil up front and then he still gets income from his usual streams, that's hard to pass up.

        you have a tendency to keep arguments going longer than needed.

        if it's a position i care about i'll keep going.

        this not much. if they do, if they don't, not my problem. just giving my 2 cents. no one really know atm.
        My tendencies match yours apparently. You're still responding. Except only one of us is whining about it. Sorry for continually countering your points during the discussion. Next time I'll just stand still and let you have your way so you can get your desired outcome.

          Hard core fans are smart enough to know a rematch isn't necessary.

            Rematch is all about money for Floyd. Not Pac. Hes made his money. Honestly...the should put it on cbs on free TV. To give back to the fans they ripped off.

                Arum has a deal with the Venetian. They need to make a profit to and, last time I checked, their last fight didn't sell out. I'm sure they'd love to have Floyd there and make serious bank. Soon as Pacquiao agrees to take Algieri money, it's on.

                  well technically the topic changed.

                  it's not letting me have my way.

                  it's called when i make my point, you make your point, convo should end.

                  you like to repeat yourself over and over and over.

                      when you watch a martial arts movie you see guys blocking every punch evading every strike with magical maneuvers , you think wow i want some of that. then you watch ufc expecting great magical abilities to avoid punches and kicks, but find nothing like that.

                      floyd is the closest thing we are going to get to such characters in these movies. at this period in time society want extreme violence over skill because that's all they are capable of.

                      before eminem certain people said rap was a load of crap, suddenly overnight they are rap fans. same sort of people would complain about certain singers doing vocal gymnastic,enter somebody they like the look of doing it and suddenly it's alright.

                      right now some find it hard to identify with skillful talented guys who can avoid punches and demonstrate extreme skills.

                      maybe one day there will be people they like the look of who is brave enough to even try such skills in the middle of a fight,and suddenly society will show respect to a fighting master like floyd.
