    Depends on who Floyd is gonna fight and who HBO picks up. Personally, I see Floyd keeping himself busy with Malignaggi, that way HBO would have to pick them up for the sake of 24/7. Pac/Clottey would be a huge 24/7 dud.

    I would put my money on Pac vs Clottey outselling PBF vs Malignaggi both at the gate and on PPV

    I'm not too big on neither one of these fights right now.

    I don't think that either of those fights would be PPV worthy. What'll end up happening is they'll do one of those double telecasts on regular HBO like they did a few years back with RJJ and Bhop.

    That's interesting. I'd really like to see the results of something like this.

    The hardcore boxing fans would prob watch the pac vs clottey.

    But a lot more casuals would watch PBF vs Magic Man.

    Clottey v Pacquaio will be a hell of a lot more entertaining than whoever Floyd picks, thats for sure.

    Who gives a shift on who outsells who. We are now getting caught up in their bull**** with these threads on how much money these fools make. PBF vs Bradley, Paulie, Campbell, or Cintron? I hope if he fights the first three mentioned that it is at 140. Cintron hasn't made 147 in how long? Pac is fighting a large WW, while PBF is thinking about fighting another smaller man. Now, if this happens, I am convinced that PBF is looking for easy fights and keeping his zero. PBF vs Foreman, Martinez, Williams, and even Collazo would be more entertaining and more of a challenge.

    This is more of a build up for Pac vs PBF. How is it going to look if just say PBF beats Paulie by decision and Pac beats a large WW (Clottey) TKO? Pac retires afterward and nobody will ever give PBF the respect that he wants.

    The only fight that might be more interesting is Floyd vs. Tim Bradley...

    No casual fan watches any Mayweather fight except Mosley.

    I like that fight. But it's still Mayweather fighting a Jr. Welter.

    Pac is much more fan friendly than Mayweather.
