    floyd is padding his ppv count.

    he's adding each theater ticket sale as a ppv buy.

    He's an AMERICAN and the fight is in the US.
    But despite that fact, he could only a could only fish more than a million buys.

    When Pac fights, 80 Million people tune in. If it WAS PPV, many Filipinos would'nt be able to afford the fight, but I predict 20 million buys is a MINIMUM.

    People skip work/class just to watch Pac. The whole nation is at halt.

    Does he really? I did not know that. Each $12 ticket sale equals $60 PPV buy?

    PAC just box, that's his job. He leaves the bulk of the promotion to his promoter.

    Floyd is a boxer and at the same time the main promoter for his fights.

    Yeah, as opposed to Bob Arum who doesn't allow official PPV numbers to be released because they wouldn't come close to his made up ones. :lol:

    in the end, does the ppv count really matter to you and me? :think

    what matters in the end is if you or me have been entertained.

    TRANSLATION: I just got my cap peeled back by that post from Atlanta destroying my 'Mayweather pads his PPVs with theater sales' meme. Best to now shrug and ask, 'why does it matter'?

    i notice in a lot of your post, you seem to be always angry and troubled.... kinda' like someone who's constipated and has a "short fuse" which is why your girlfriend has just left you for that shortcoming.

    my advice, relax and don't take everything seriously.

    Floyds style is more crowd pleasing against good, bad, and all boxers. Pacquiaos style is more crowd pleasing against sluggers or catchweight weakened fighters. Floyd will engage any and everyone, Pacquiao won't. #Makes sense?

    - Floyd has more American fans than Pac.

    - More Floyd fans have the $$$ to BUY the fight.


    More people actually watch Pac's fights than Floyd's.
