Will Pacquiao vs DLH Outsell the DLH vs PBF Fight?

Pacquiao is fast at 130 (and not as fast there as he was at 122 and 126)....we are talking 3 weight classes above that. And it's not his handspeed that matters, but his footspeed. And seriously, it's a stretch to say he would imitate Mayweather....Pacquiao has never shown this ability ever.

 

PAC not shown a "hit and run" style coz it's not his style but I think he can implement and do it to avoid getting hit by Goliath... I still think PAC a lot faster than DLH at 147...

 

He may or may not be faster. At 130, DLH was not slow....actually he was quite fast.

Honestly, looks like you are posting what you WANT to happen. Pacquiao has never shown the ability to use that style successfully. And it takes practice. Otherwise you just get hit and don't land much. Takes more timing and precision.

 

Pac's looking at DLH because DLH's camp said that PBF's has Problem with rematch contract. Pac is the next option for DLH.

 

DLH is fighting Mayweather. Willing to put whatever you want on it.

It's called negotiating tactics. They said last time that they weren't going to fight and tossed out stuff like this to make the other bend.

 

I'm not expecting PAC to win this fight... Personally I just wanted this fight to happen to reward PAC ($30M purse in 1 fight) for what he has given to boxing over the years instead of giving this kind of money to boring heavyweights and boring P4P superstar.

But I'm also giving PAC some chance to avoid DLH lethal punches... A cautious, careful and potshotting PAC has greater chances of avoiding getting hit by a slow and weak DLH (at 147)...

 

That's fine. But you are putting a great deal of faith in "if's". DLH isn't slow, just not as fast as Mayweather. And Pacquiao has never used such a style.

And I doubt, as others have already suggested, that DLH will give Pacquiao 30 mil for this fight. Mayweather was set to make less coming into the rematch, and I am not sure anyone has ever made that much on the purse alone. Even DLH. Even Tyson.

 

Don't count that out... Remember DLH has a cut on what PAC makes on his fights... DLH is PAC's co-promoter...

 

I know....it is still an outrageous number that would rely on huge PPV sales, bigger than DLH-Mayweather. And I am not sure it has that marketability.

 

Does this thread didn't answer yet its question posed? All signs showed that PAC-DLH will be bigger than DLH-PBF...

PAC: "I will punish DLH for calling me a liar and fooling me with a suitcase full of 20-dollar bills when I'm expecting 100-dollar bills..."

 

This thread hasn't proven that at all. Pacquiao fans are the ones in this thread for the most part making this claim. It doesn't prove anything. There are just as many posters saying it won't be. So I don't think thats proof of anything.

 

yep, the ultimate buttplug to PAC's ass...

 

So you're not convinced that PAC is a bigger draw than PBF (not counting PBF-DLH)? PAC just proven that he's a bigger PPV star than PBF with the 525k PPV sales of PAC-JMM 2...

 

it seems the thread question needs more definitive answers... gtg guyz...

 

Or counting PBF-Hatton right? Since it did nearly 1 million PPV sales.

Don't only count the PPV's that are helpful. This is Pacquiao's first time over 400K and it was in a highly anticipated rematch that was 4 years in the making. Mayweather has never been in a match like that. Mayweather was also consistantly over 300K just like Pacquiao fighting guys like Baldomir and Judah.
