    anyone would rather see Pac fight than see Void cheat. Mosley had Void hurt, but then suddenly quit punching. Pac would not quit punching. Pac refused to throw a fight with Void! Void will never fight Pac. Pac will knock Void out, if it were to happen, but Void has to have a guaranteed win.

    I take it you were vote #4 for PBF/Clottey.

    The situations are apples and oranges. Repost from another thread, would like to hear the Joyboys response to the whole post.

    You realize you have to go inside the numbers to make sense of them. This is a concept foreign to Floyd fanboys.

    Its a ****ing joke to compare Oscar-Floyd numbers to Pac-Oscar numbers. The Floyd fight happened summer 2007 with insane hype, premier of 24/7, and a great economy. A lot of people bought the fight because they figured Floyd would back up what he said on 24/7 instead of a defensive fight. The Pac fight happened right after the economic meltdown in 2008 and with considerably less hype. Please try and refute this.

    Its also laughable to compare JMM-Floyd to JMM-Pac II. The Pac fight happened before Pac became a superstar(Oscar fight) and without a 24/7. The Floyd fight was his comeback, with a 24/7, and after Floyd became a superstar(Oscar fight). How these are remotely comparable is beyond me.

    Hatton-Pac and Hatton-Floyd are somewhat comparable but still not under the same circumstances. The Floyd fight was 2 undefeateds, awesome 24/7, and happened in a decent economy. The Pac fight had an okay 24/7 and happened while the economy was still pretty bad. It also happened after Floyd had easily beaten Hatton, making it a less attractive buy. The Hatton KO also got Pac a lot of fans since it was so spectacular. Thats how you explain the jump in numbers from the Hatton fight to the Cotto fight.


    Floyd fans and objective observers, does Floyd put 40,000(or whatever the attendance was) in Jerryworld and generate 700,000 ppvs against Clottey with no 24/7 and little hype?

    The thread question is stupid.

    Of course it's Mosley-Pac.

    But Mayweather with similar opponents does better.

    Well, wouldn't that just shoot down your theory that PBF is the bigger draw?

    And you just contradicted yourself with that answer!

    No. Not at all.


    Floyd is the bigger draw, but it's not by much. I've stated this several times.

    No I didn't.

    I answered the thread question.

    Which was if Pac and Floyd had reversed opponents after the negotiations fell through, who would do better. Which would obviously be Pac-Mosley.

    I've never doubted Pac is a big draw, which he clearly is, 700,000 is ****ing impressive for Clottey who's biggest note is a SD loss to Cotto.

    I didn't contradict myself at all.

    I didn't even check the results of the poll, but somehow you already voted but assumed I was vote number 4, despite the poll being PUBLIC.


    Idiot.
