Pac - Mosley PPV buys, Floyd doesn't win

floyd always wins yep

 

Many believed that the fight would not reach 1 million buys.

Pac fought Mosley after Mosley lost to Mayweather and drew with Mora, yet the fight seemed to draw at least 1.2M PPV buys.

If that's a "loss," I'm sure Arum is prepared to "fail" a whole bunch more.

Mayweather got Mosley right after he beat Margo. Different situation, from a promotion standpoint.

It has also been mentioned that Showtime does not possess the PPV infrastructure which HBO does. Finally, the social media and promotional effort behind Mosley/Mayweather was gigantic. And, they were two American fighters.

I recall in the build-up to the Mosley/Mayweather fight hearing someone connected to the promotion say something like they thought the fight might do 3 million or more buys.

The lasting lesson from Pac/Mosley seems to be that you can put Pac in with just about anyone and it's going to draw 1 million PPV buys. Except Clottey. But 3 of the last 4 Pac fights have done over 1 million PPV buys.

 

But thats no different to PBF who gets 1 mil + buys. From what I was reading CBS exposure and access to more homes was supposed to ensure the fight would do more than what it would of done on HBO?

Floyd v JMM drew 1 mil buys against the UFC on the same night.

 

The only boxer who sold more than 1M PPV buys, 4years in a row.


"Manny the Money Pacquiao":deal

 

GTFOH! Not a good comparison.

 

The main difference is that one guy is fighting more regularly than the other guy, hence he's racking-up more PPV buys -- and more $$$ -- each year.

If you don't fight, you can't win. Including in PPV sales.

 

HE'S A FILIPINO YOU MORON THESE ARE AMERICAN PPV NUMBERS !!!

floyd is from america and was on the god damn Olympic team,

Put it in perspective what Pac has done is amazing:yep


who watches floyd in manilla ?

 

Everyone.
Filipino's love Floyd.
They never stop bringing him up.

 

aint that the truth

This thread isn't going the way the ts thought:rofl

 

How many PPV buys Floyd / Pac sold that went over 1M?

 

Judah

 

just for arguments sake.

Hatton v PBF - over 1 mil UK PPV buys
Hatton v Pacquiao - 300,000 UK PPV buys.

Not even close but why the huge difference? Again I say people will pay to watch Mayweather even if they dont like him.

 

Judah?

 

Pac v Cotto/Margo sold more than 2M PPV.

Floyd v Cotto/Margo sold more than......wait ...:think

 

:rofl:rofl just like the TS!!!
