    REALLY??? CUZ I LIVE IN SAN DIEGO AND I HAD ABOUT 50 PEOPLE AT MY FIGHT PARTY AND MORE THAN 30 OF THEM WERE HISPANIC....MAYBE YOU SHOULD JUST QUIT HATING AND GIVE FLOYD CREDIT WHEN IT COMES TO HIS PPV SALES...

    UliUli this is why nobody takes u serious usually....YOU DONT GIVE FIGHTERS CREDIT WHERE CREDIT IS DUE....U DONT HAVE TO LIKE HIM BUT FACT OF THE MATTER IS HE IS THE BIGGEST DRAW IN BOXING AND THE NUMBERS DONT LIE...IF MARQUEZ, HATTON, AND OSCAR ARE THE REASON FOR ALL THE BUYS THAN HOW COME THE NEW LB4LB CHAMP DIDNT SELL AS MANY AS FLOYD....**** FLOYD COMIN OFF A 19MONTH RETIREMENT AND MORE THAN DOUBLED PAC-MARQUEZ...

    WHY NOT JUSS SAY THAT YOU DONT LIKE FLOYD BUT U RESPECT HES A VERY TALENTED FIGHTER AND HE IS A DRAW....:huh

    That's because Oscar was still fighting. Do you think that as much as Hispanics love boxing, they are going to stop having events when a big fight is on??

    No, now that DLH is gone, their $50 dollars are going towards another fighter of Mexican origin.

    Like I said, Mayweather vs a fighter without a big fan base will flop.

    I gave Mayweather credit, my 1st or second post in this thread read that it was partially because of Mayweather that the PPV was high.

    Just because I don't exaggerate the credit I give him like some groupies does not mean I'm hating.

    I hear ya, But Floyd said in the DLH fight, Someones got to be the Villian~ and like I said and many of his fans said the good guy bad guy **** sells...
    it does, a perfect Example is Holyfield vs Tyson 1 in which Evander played himself the good guy against Tyson who obviously is the villian and how did the fans react when Holyfield won?
    Do you see my point now?


    Really:huh I mean damn the way I see it is when you have 50 people at your party that right there is 50 people who are not willing to fork out the full 50 bux to watch the fight themselves.

    Sorry, but Floyd can sell a fight with PAc or Shane, and do well over a mil. JMM who I love to death was not the sole reson this fight did well...sorry. You are overrating the latino ppv market in this case. Black folk will pay to see Floyd, and that is a fact. Hell, everyone this fight wanted to see how Floyd would look after two years off.

    oscar vs a fighter that had no fan base flopped.

    Stop acting like this would only happen to Mayweather.

    u really lost ur credit now...

    Mayweather -oscar 2.4 million

    mayweather-hatton 915000

    mayweather- marquez 1 million

    now go look at the next biggest draw and see what his numbers are with 3 common opponents...the mayweather oscar fight did more than pac -oscar and oscar-hatton combined....

    Yeah, each one of those 50 people should have just stayed home by themselves lol, bought the ppv fight, and that could've been a mil+50 ppv's for JMM lol...

    Pac's fans, Bazooka, and a few others are truly offended that Floyd-JMM sold over a mil ppv's. Pac's fans are shocked, and JMM's bandwagon fans are screaming the latino market saved the day lol... Man, I am #@$!#$ dying lol... Big Reg, I think I'm ready for Floyd-Pac lol...

    According to the host of the party 30 of them were Mexican so it would be a mil+30 and probably minus 20 if they didnt go to his party.:yep

    Much respct to JMM who I love dearly as a fighter. I hope he comes back and shows that he is still truly one of the best fighters this decade, and he is already one of my favorite fighters of all time. If JMM loses his next fight, I'm okay with it. JMM has had a wonderful career.

    ok i saw ur post and i respect that...but why not give him the credit he is due....think about it...WHAT WOULD DO THE MOST BUYS IN THESE FIGHTS??

    PAC-MAYWEATHER OR PAC-MOSLEY ??

    MAYWEATHER-COTTO OR COTTO-MOSLEY??

    NO MATTER HOW U LOOK IT I GUARANTEE THAT FLOYD DOES MORE BUYS THAN NE 1 NOW...Its clear when it comes to being a ppv king he does fit in with the oscars and tysons...even Tito who is a great fighter in his prime did 500,000 with RJJ...floyd is the biggest draw...NAME THE 4 BIGGEST FIGHTS TO BE MADE RIGHT NOW AND I GUARANTEE YOU THAT FLOYD IS IN 3 OF THEM!
