HBO did a marvelous job dumping Pacquiao/Vargas and going with SOG/Krusher. Brilliant.

    Ward has a far bigger fanbase than Pacquiao. His numbers he drew against Paul Smith and Alexander Brand prove that.

    The Boxing game is hardcore, Brutal, Cut-throat, and a short term memory.
    Fans that used to cheer, suddenly moan.
    fickle-fair weather-fans are why the Floyd "Money" Mayweather Personal Milestone model is the only one that makes sense to the fighter.
    Fan friendly, the-hell-with-defence boxing styles are extremely stupid for the talented, but a necessity for the less talented.
    Thanks to his ankle secured ball and chain (Arum) Pacquaio is in the former group, but choose the short lived path of the least talented.

    GGG did more than that on PPV in the UK alone against Kell Brook.

    If Mayweather and GGG are to fight, GGG should be A-side

    HBO simply went with a bigger draw and that's Ward.

    Exactly. Ward is missing out fighting Paul Smith and Brand at the Oracle. He needs to fight them at O.co Coliseum.

    Not them, but Marquez. Remember how Manny won't give him a 50/50
    deal for a 5th fight?
    Manny hasn't sold a million PPVs since until Floyd. Pacquiao has been notorious in low balling opponents, if it was Mayweather turning down guys because of money there would be a thousand threads and web articles about it.

    JMM said no to a fifth fight even when Pacquiao made an offer to fight him in MEXICO. JMM didn't want a fifth fight and money was never discussed.

    Boxing is getting fresher every day, Manny can't be a ppv star all his life.
