    Manny-Mosley brought in 1.3 Million buys evidently Mosley is quite the draw himself.

    You own date shows that Mayweather- Mosley did 100,000 more than Pav-Mosley. Two guys by you definition are "exciting" did less than the guy you said was unexciting. Shane didn't even do half that against De la Hoya.

    How much did Canelo-Angulo do on ppv?
    How much did Canelo-Lara do on ppv?
    How much did Pac vs Osca do on ppv?
    According to you Canelo and Oscar were the draws against Mayweather yet none of them ever came close to doing the type of figure that they did against Mayweather.

    What bearing did it have post both fighters encounter. What was Oscar's number post the Mayweather fight. In fact Mayweather showed that without Oscar he could generate better ppv number which he did against Canelo. Oscar's career high payday was against Mayweather and that goes for every fighter that has fought Mayweather since 2007.:think

    Oscar before MW was the 2nd biggest draw in boxing behind Tyson you really want to go there ?

    And the games has changed you really think Oscar couldn't have done the numbers MW is doing if he were around today ? Oscar was drawing big numbers with out social media or a 24/7 series ..

    Oh Please Oscar is not that far removed from boxing. His ppv fight against Pac who also is draw did almost a million less than he did against Mayweather.

    And what did his fight w/MW do ? Yeah im sure Floyd does those numbers with Maidana Ortiz and Gurrwro oh wait they didn't come close ..

    Oscar is responsible for making both Manny and Floyd household names ..

    If anything, Floyd will be the one that will be robbed, because they need that to happen for a potential rematch. :yep

    Oscar didn't make ****. Bob Arum never invested in Mayweather like he did Oscar. Arum didn't believe Floyd had star potential and as result didn't bother to invest in Floyd. That was the reason why Mayweather bought out his contract. He knew he was more talented than Osca and could be just as big, if not better draw than Oscar, which he became. Don't blame the man for knowing his worth.

    No one Knows pac's true ppv record. Richard Schaefer asked for an audit by an independent accounting company on Pac's ppv records, Bob Arum declined.
