    The first Ali- Frazier did 300 million worldwide.....1.5 million paid to see it in theatres in North America....that was 40 years ago and BEFORE pay per view television!.... I am not impressed with either Pacquiao OR Mayweather's PPV numbers.

    oh...the money thing again? wait until 3 1/2 years later when someone finally loses to throw money card with intent to **** at this point.
    i remember once upon a time it was a "take da test" kind of excuse..... always something to ***** about.... maybe floyd actually fights the guy this time, seeing how not many give pac a chance these days.....

    like i've always said
    According to Pac Fans When his Fight Flops, they put all the Blame on his Opponents for not having a Big Enuff Name Tim Bradley was Just as Popular as Ortiz....

    But when Floyd Fights a No Name and sell over 1 million he Flopped!!!!

    At this Point in his Career Floyd can PPV himself taking a **** and 1 million people will pay to see his..(no homo) He is just of one those dudes that can Sell Water to a Well...

    If it was Floyd V.S Bradley at least 1.1 million...#Fact

    Rafael and Iole both wrote in their articles that their source was Bob Arum, which by and far makes the statement 900k null and void.

    700k and even less seems like the more reasonable assesment.
    Bradley was a non-name to casual fans, and Pacquiao was just coming off of getting gifted vs JMM which likely discouraged alot of Pacquiao's previous PPV casual fans to not buy the Bradley fight.

    The Bradley matchup did harm to Pacquiao's stock. I think its fair to say he cant draw 1 million PPV's on his own, which alot of people including Bob Arum were of the opinion he could.

    I dont think as many people even care about a Mayweather-Pac fight anymore. The intrigue in it is gone now that Pacquiao has been exposed as a fighter who cant get to a non-stationary target.

    50/50 is well off of what Pacquiao deserves and can ask against the "money" one! :deal:lol::lol::lol:
    The laughs are for the *******s who had concluded JMM could'nt draw flies to ****.
    Marquez has been Pacquiao's biggest PPV to date, and he doubled the Bradley PPV buys at that! :bbb:bbb:bbb:lol:

    That's not bad. But Mayweather will always stay the cash cow!

    I don't see how you people ca get joy out of this, hat Pac or not, do you really think it is a good thing that boxing's number 2 name is bringing in that low of a number?
