    What does PPV buys have to do with this fight?
    You a network executive or something?

    You guys all talk like floyd.
    "greatest fighter ever is the dude who gets 2.8 million ppv buys!"

    Wrong. Clottey is nowhere near the type of fighter that is dangerous for Pac. Manny ducked the guy who could beat him.

    I would like to see him take on Zab though, hahaha.

    Remind me when did Clottey become a challenger to Pacquio? This is pure Top Rank BS to make sure Top Rank wins.

    You keep trying to salvage Top Rank and Pacquio in this. Look at the facts man. Buys is a GREAT indicator on how vibrant a sport is. Why in the hell is the entire media based on ratings/views?

    Mayweather or Pac don't need to be picking opponents. They need to be in camp training to face each other. Even with:

    01. The 14 day cut off compromise
    02. Arum flip flopping about knowing
    03. Team Mayweather saying they are STILL willing to fight
    04. Arum picking Top Rank challengers instead of the REAL challenger, Tim Bradley

    You still hold on to hope and keep trying to bash Mayweather. Man take a step back and analyze this situation. It breaks my heart because I can see this ish and I don't even get paid to. You do this for a living (maybe?) or at least on my favorite boxing fan site and can't see this simple ish. :huh:-(

    LukeO be a man of your word and a true journalist. Go collect the facts and write a one sided hit job article pro-Mayweather. I will GLADLY help you collect information.

    What the ****? Have you paid attention to anything I have said?
    I have blasted arum and manny as soon as the 14 day compromise came up.
    Stop being a floyd dick sucker.
    I am not Manny Pacquiao's supreme defender, sorry for for having my own opinions.

    It won't be very pretty.

    Go check my comments on the first 14 day compromise thread, and see what I said, then come back and we can talk.

    If we go by his history, then NO.

    My point = clottey is a tough WW.

    Who cares what the numbers are? At least it's a decent challenge. Thank god pacquiao isn't trying to fight paulie or someone.

    I don't look at a fight and go "oh no, this won't break 1 million ppv buys!"
    I look and go "this looks like a good fight" or "this looks like ****"

    I don't give a **** if the ppv does 3 million buys, if it's matthew hatton vs yuri foreman... I still won't give a **** about it.

    Doesn't he still want Manny. Isn't that a tough opponent? Oh Mr.Manny just agree to the damn random drug test. Is not even random anymore there is a 14 day window offer. Just agree.

    There's nobody tougher, unless he waits for Mosley/Berto fight. And then waits more... but he wants to fight in March.
