    Pac-Cotto did 1.2 million PPV buys and Pac-Margarito did 1.15 millon PPV buys.

    Do you see Pac-Mosley reaching those numbers or surpassing them?

    May-Mosley did 1.4 million PPV buys, and if somehow Pac-Mosley equals the numbers of that fight or makes more, IMHO it could make the Pacquiao-Mayweather negotiations even harder.

    No. I would say less than a million buys.

    You will never leave, you will just use an alt acct. The only way you will leave is if Pac get's Koed by Mosley.

    But then, you'll be back praising Sergio Martinez as the greatest thing ever, and accuse Floyd of ducking him.

    People have seen Mosley's last 2 fights, so I believe the numbers will be less. That, combined with the fact that Showtime and Fight Camp 360 have not been doing a real good job to promote this fight, leads me to believe it will do about 750,000-900,000, which is still pretty good.

    Since you have no real intention of honoring it, no I won't take it. Besides, If Pac gets KO'ed, and you stick around for even a day, I am bumping all of your ridiculous threads and we will all have a very big laugh.

    it will do about 900K ppv buys. They've done a shitty job promoting this fight. I thought having Fight Camp on CBS would help, but it hasn't

    If Pac - Margo does 1.15 , this should easily do more.

    Shane doesn't have a blindly patriotic fanbase or an antagonist story similar to antonio.

    The Cotto fight was the closest thing to a superfight emmanuel has ever been in. That fight had buzz and intrigue.

    Cotto came off a controversial win, but he was still seen as no joke as a welter.

    emmanuel just came off his two most one sided victories and surprised everyone in those wins.

    People wanted to see if this "small welterweight" could handle a "REAL" welterweight. How authentic were those victories over Oscar and Hatton? Was it just luck?

    I've seen no buzz for this Mosley-emmanuel fight among the casual fans I know. Some of them even see it as a cop out and are questioning why a so called legend is fighting someone who was beat up from ring post to ring post last year, by the so called legend's rival.
