What are you talking about Floyd vs Hatton creamed Pac vs Hatton just check the UK PPV figures alone, they were through the roof and set a UK record so dont try and come with that! Even in the USA Floyd STILL did better.....
Isn't PBF beating Hatton at 147 similar to pac beating Marquez at 144? If the extra weight doesn't effect Marquez, how can you say it effected Hatton?
How can you say that? What happened to Pac has been coming in at 144+ since his superfeather weight days? I thought pacs fight weight was all that mattered? I mean he was at an advantage since he didn't have to drain right?
So you're saying moving up 3 weight classes in 9 months is nothing? that any fighter can do it and they would have an advantage over their opponent cause they are not cutting weight?
I actually think Pac will get very little credit if he beats Marquez at 144. I give Pac more credit for fighting JMM at 126 and 130 than at 144. Imagine Mayweather who fought him even higher than that and also came in even heavier than the limit on fight night.
No, but that's exactly why people think pac is on peds. i have been reading that pac was able to do it since he has always been weight at 144+ on fight night so it's not a big deal. Which one is it?
its good your consistent. i see posters thinking the marquez fight is a legit one. the same people take creidt away from floyd for beaten hatton in a division where hatton had a belt! marquez hasn't even won a fight at WW.
in the USA http://sports.espn.go.com/sports/boxing/news/story?id=3158134 http://espn.go.com/sports/boxing/blog/_/name/rafael_dan/id/4165901 it's the same.
Hatton no longer had a belt at WW when Floyd made him move up from 140lbs and to top it off Hatton won his belt at WW in a controversial decision against a B level fighter.
OK so we Can agree that 950K > 850K which the second link quotes? http://www.fighthype.com/pages/content4928.html So my statement is correct Maywether vs Hatton did better than Pacqiuao Vs Hatton I know you dont want me to quote the UK numbers!
"Mayweather's 10th-round knockout of England's Ricky Hatton to retain the welterweight championship Dec. 8 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas generated a whopping 850,000 domestic pay-per-view buys and $47 million in television revenue, HBO PPV's Mark Taffet said Monday. " 850K = 850K.
Actually, what are the UK numbers? I've always been told that $-Hatton broke the UK record, but no one has ever given me a solid figure.
