    he wasn't talking about that.

    And if he is talking about how much pac made. Then you just have to look at mayweather's guarantee to see how much he makes per fight.

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but people saw that as a fight that COULD POSSIBLY lead to a Pac fight?

    Face it guys, Pac is now Floyd's Daddy. :deal

    that wasn't the selling point at all and it wasn't being talked about at all like it is today....the drawing point was Mayweather's Comming Back.

    Like he said he's the super bowl of boxing...his words not mine but thats his selling point....like it or not Floyd as of right now will still be regarded as 1 of the absolute bests in the sport for several reasons...the "0" , he's that good a boxer, and he promotes shyt better than anyone today with that bad guy flashy or whatever persona....Floyd's an entertainer....we may not like it but you can't knock the man's business part of boxing...he has consistantly done 1mill or better for some time now....thas not because people dont want to see you.....or think your a coward or a *****.

    To fight a guy PACQUIAO had great wars with. Then average people then thought that Marquez would have a chance not thinking about the size difference.

    In no bias mode right now: Team Pacquiao sells his fights on "Mayweather this, Mayweather that." Mayweather has never used somebody else to sell his fights.

    One might say vs. Mosley the media's focus was on the Pacquiao fight not being made, but I'm pretty sure P4P#2 vs. P4P#3 was responsible for those sales. And, what do you know, Pac yet again facing a Mayweather victim 12-18 months after. If that isn't earning money off another person's work/fame, than it isn't possible to do so.

    actually most average people link size and winning...the bigger fighter should win type of thought process.

    Well let's see how his next fight does without the mention of tune-up or Pac's name. :thumbsup

    Yeah because casual boxing fans are very aware of weight divisions. My friends bought this stupid fight thinking Marquez had a very good chance of beating Mayweather despite me telling them otherwise.

    preserve my "0" and demand any roadblock and have an indefinite leave just to avoid a possible fight w/ a beast like pac. oh wait... isn't that exactly floyd was/is doing now? :yep
