The "All Things Mayweather/Pacquiao" Express!!!!!!

i am sure....pretty good vs very good....there is a difference....pretty amazing one guy has very good to great earning ability without a supposed "career defining win".....

 

it's hard to realy assess the selling power of floyd. his fights that made money were all against mexican or mexican-american fighters and the fights were held on mexican holidays. let him fight a non-hispanic fighter on a non-mexican holiday and it will show a clearer picture of his drawing power.

 

Neither Jones or Pac have achieved the distinction of being the world's highest paid athlete 3 years in a row. Especially while earning more money in each consecutive year.
Soon Floyd will enter his 4th year and earning even more.
Naw, neither Pac nor Jones done that and never will.

 

deal:deal

 

ya see one man says "his earnings dont mean anything...it how he sells that matters"

then when you point out how well he sells...its starts to get loaded...mexican fighters/holidays yadda yadda

id say floyd/cotto sold very well....is cotto mexican? oh that was a mexican holiday!...he fights canelo and does like 2.2-2.4....but thats cause canelo is a big mexican draw.....so how many buys did canelos fight vs angulo do? 350k? well let me guess thats cause angulo isnt a big name opponent? which is what floyd is.....it will always be something

the numbers dont lie....floyd is a draw...his live gate for maidana did almost twice as much as pac/bradley 2

 

What were the numbers for Mayweather Mosley?

 

pacquiao who's from another country making this amount of ppv buys is saying a lot. I cant name a guy who's done that well from another country.

 

good wins but not career defining wins.

again, listen to me.....floyd has none.

 

which would make it more amazing he sells/makes as much as he does....people watch

 

i just got you to agree that floyd has no career defining win...none.

as your old account use to say, "i own you."

 

oh i didnt say it was true...im saying going by what you say/believe....thats why i said "which would make it"....didnt say "it does make it"...big difference

i dont have an old account chief...i dont make up new email addresses/accounts because ive been shamed...dont need to do that...yer desperate and reaching...your arms aint long enough

 

what is floyd's career defining win??

 

doesnt matter what i believe are his career defining wins...you are going to disagree no matter what and shoot em down...cause you arent reasonable

but that was a nice attempt before and tryna get at me...and it was a fail

 

Which is a matter of opinion on your part.

de la Hoya Mayweather holds the PPVs sold record. That qualifies as a "career defining win" in my book.

 

That's only if you compare one of Pacquiao's weakest earning years with one of Floyd's best. Pac had a lay off, then fought two guys who weren't draws, one out of country. That's not how this usually goes. Here's their pay per view history in viewers.

It helps if you look at what they usually earn and their draw potential rather than picking out the high and low numbers of their careers. Also, Floyd earns his check as a promoter from which he has to pay everyone else so his take home is less than stated.
