    Floyd charges more because the demand for him is higher than Manny so he can set the price of his tickets higher than Manny because if Manny charged what Mayweather charges, his fights wouldn't sell like they would with the tickets set at the price they are at. This is simple supply and demand.:smooch

    He charges more and people still show up. Imagine if he charged as low as Pacquiao does. And there's a reason Pacquiao's tickets are less...

    Pac-Bradley 750k ppv buys
    Floyd-Maidana 800k

    800k = 52%
    750k = 48%

    71% ? You ********uals are unbelievable, you truly dont want this fight to happen, and want to justify any excuse that coward can come with.

    Floyd is the biggest coward the sport has ever seen, the man blatantly ducks a midget, and constantly get harassed for it in the streets and still doesn't want to risk his health fighting that man.

    Errr no. That's just business sense, Pac also pays his opponents more than Floyd does. Floyd just lowballs his fans for as much as he could, Pac lets TR handle the pricing of his tickets and they find a price they think is suitable. There is no proof that less would show up if the tickets are more expensive. That doesn't determine drawing power.

    Lets not forget Pac didn't even have his posters up on MGM, meanwhile Floyd pays a lot of money to have his posters displayed there year round, so how does the gates come as a surprise? Again, thats business, not necessarily the mans drawing power.

    Floyd paid MGM x amount to display his posters year round even during Pacs fight for publicity. So how is that relevant to a fight with both of them? When both their posters will be up?

    Also gates are peanuts change when it comes to PPV numbers these 2 will do. It will be anywhere from 3-4mil, yep, makes gates revenue peanuts in comparison.

    oh yeah and their previous fights right here. Check the numbers:rofl

    Pacquiao-Rios= Mark Taffet, the senior vice president of HBO Sports, told Yahoo Sports that the Nov. 23 bout between Pacquiao-Rios sold 475,000 pay-per-view units and generated roughly $30 million in revenue.:!:

    Mayweather-Canelo= Floyd Mayweather and Canelo Alvarez sold 2.2 million pay-per-view units, the second-best figure of all-time, for a total revenue of $150 million:yikes:yikes

    2009 negotiations were a loooooong time ago.

    Each of their primes were even longer ago...

    The fight means so little at this point to what it could have.

    I wish Pacquiao would have just agreed to the extra random blood tests and this whole debate could have been ended in March of 2010, the proposed date of the fight. One side agreed to the demands of the other. I wish they could have met eye to eye on everything, though.

    Man are you high? Mayweather's last 2 fights have more than quintupled Pac's last 2 fights in "GENERATED REVENUE".

    NOW TELL ME WHO CLEARLY DESERVES THE BIGGEST PIECE OF THE PIE?

    WORD OF THE DAY #Quintuple:deal:smooch

    Pretty much this.

    Pac spent all the time from 2010 up until the end of 2013 avoiding any kind of tests outside of what the commission demands. All he had to do was take the tests and the fight would have happened. This is what every logical and unbiased boxing fan has known and said since day one. If you were clean then why not take the simple tests instead of making excuses and filing lawsuits.
