Would Mayweather vs Pacquaio in 2010 of been the biggest fight in boxing history?

Not a chance.

 

Money wise?
Yes.

It would have destroyed PPV records.

People seem to have already forgotten the hype that there was.

 

Maybe,2.4 mill he did with oscar is hard to compete with though.Too bad they both pussied :-(.They will always be remembered for never fighting each other & proves my point further on how overrated they are.

 

Fights like Leonard-Hearns and Ali-Frazier or Ali-Foreman were fallowed by the whole world and were on national television. Millions of people were interested in those bouts. Most people barely know who Pacquiao and Floyd are. The sport now is a lot more marginal, so no it was going to be the biggest fight of the current era and that's it.

 

Louis schmeling 2 was the most significant fight there ever was. The biggest war in the history of the world was going on. It was Germany vs America in that ring.

 

For Me Hagler-Leonard and even Hagler - Hearns was bigger :conf

 

Not even close...great fights no doubt but ww2 was going on during the Louis fight...

 

Lets put it this way. PAC should of took the 40 million. Now he gets chump change. Exposed. Damaged goods.

 

Maybe, it would be top 5 for sure.

Don't think it would make 3 million buys, would surpass 2 million for sure, probably close to 2.5m somewhere.

It's just absurd it didn't happen.

 

In terms of hype and revenue, yes. In terms of compitiveness. No.

 

I'm pretty sure you meant money so yes it would have have passed Oscar Floyd by far.
You have to remember that going into the Oscar fight Floyd was only averaging 350,000 ppv buys and Oscar was right around a million but Floyd and Manny were both doing over a million eachand still are.

 

Ppv wise yes. History, HELL ****ING NO!!! HAHAHA

 

not all time but for this generation yes..

 

Where are Pacquiao & Roach now....

"F*cking with JMM, you gon' get f*cked over"

Love Sosa

 

I still believe this fight can break records.
Obviously both fighters are on the decline and excuses would be made for for each fighter if they lose but there ppv numbers are higher still the same as they were before meaning they are just as popular. That's all that matters when predicting ppv sales.
We may still see this fight down the road because the money will always be there.
