    No way! Pac is too big for that. If Floyd can do 1.25 with a no name like Ortiz then Pac should be able to do the same or at least break a milli.

    If not, that would be a defeat of EPIC proportions to Floyd and he better get on the phone and except that 40 million dollar offer while it is still available. If its still available by that time.:lol:

    Yeah but he was still in the early stages of his popularity. It was until that whirlwind performance he put on against Cotto that he officially became a superstar.

    pre fight estimates were anywhere from 1.3-1.5 million PPV buys anything over 1.5 is huge and great for the sport. Mayweather really is King of the Cash Register if that happens.

    No Bradley is less known than Clottey was, Clottey had fought Judah, and Cotto, bigger resume and more known than fat head...

    If this is true, then Manny Pacquiao is unrealistically asking for a 50/50. I can understand where Floyd is coming from. Mayweather's PPV with De La Hoya vs Manny's PPV with the same fighter is a very big difference. Did they ever officially release the PPV numbers for Pacquiao-Mosley? I know Floyd's gate with Shane was 11.1 million bucks. Manny has to be realistic. 60/40 is fair enough. Take it or leave it and try to make the same amount of money somewhere else. Good luck with that. Bob aint building any fighters from his company that can be as big of a draw as Floyd is.

    The Pac-Bradley will do **** numbers..Clottey was a bigger name when Pac fought him than Bradley is now. Clottey's resume had Judah and Cotto.... Where fat head can't sell a small casino in his own hometown...

    Trust me....people will intentionally go out of their way to not pay for this, one reason being they feel jilted that Marquez was robbed by Arum paid judges and secondly they are pissed off that they are not getting Pac-Mayweather,.

    There was no Mayweather backlash for the fight not being made because May took the next best threat which was Cotto, a legit Champion with a name, and to top it off it they had Canelo against Mosley on the undercard another great fight.

    Pac-Bradley will do ****...:deal

    Arum knows this....*******s know this, *****s know this..

    For years Arum and Company along with media sports figures did what they could to sell the public May was ducking, they did a great job at it, because people ate it, myself included. But now with time and with time all things especially the truth come to light. We know Arum is the reason the fight does not happen.

    So people who are a little bit savy and see that Top Rank promotions is the next WWE, will opt out of their events.

    I for one will not pay anything for Top Tank fighters, whether PPV's or tickets I am done.

    Trying to sell a million on PPV with Joshua Clottey is like trying to dig a grave with a beach shovel though :lol:

    I hope the numbers are huge cause the fights were all good and new fans were probably won last weekend.
