More PPV Buys: Mayweather-Ortiz or Pacquiao-Marquez III

Both Fight will do Huge numbers... and I think they might be similar but JMM pac with all the rich history and PAC being more active... it will pull the PAC ahead in numbers.

 

I think it will be similair.

 

Marquez is no draw. Only ever time he's sold anything is Mayweather. And it wasn't huge

I think it will be a hard sell for Pacquiao.

If it was at 135, it's would sell huge

But I suspect fans are a bit cynical about it.

 

GBP always pour it on promotions just like the last floyd's fight and they have to get back the $40M guarantee they would pay floyd. meanwhile TR's bob arum is a cheapskate when it comes to it and would just have the fighter's star power and name recall do the marketing itself.

 

Hard to tell but it's clear which of the 2 will be more exciting with the potential to become a war.

 

I have a theory on these guys.

I think Manny's limit, without Mayweather, is around the 1.2 to 1.3 range

He couldn't surpass that with Oscar, Hatton, or Mosely, so he's not going to surpass it with anyone.

That's just his fan base. His limit

On the other hand, I think Floyd gets 1.2 million almost automatic. And with a big name opponent, closer to 1.5-1.7

So..................I think it will be about even

Manny has the big name to help him

Floyd is selling the thing on his own

Which equates to both getting about 1.2 million

 

Maybe 2 years ago, 2 divisions down

 

Third option is needed, in reality who gives a ****?

 

I don't think it really matters at what weight. The casual fans don't care about the weight. The hardcore fans probably don't make up half the ppv buys.

 

In a way I understand where you're coming from, both are proud Mexican warriors and both virtually don't have a chance.

 

You clearly dont understand, Numbers dont do **** for the fans... so why is everybody intrested, if you want to know the truth Floyds numbers in this fight will out do Mannys numbers in his rematch with Marquez and it will not even be close.

 

Well one of them is on independance day, so gunning for that one.

 

also the floyd fight will spark a interest in pac/floyd so people will be looking foreweward to see pac face his rival marquez a few months later.

 

...and I understand why you would dislike (hate?) Manny more than Floyd.

You just have to believe Pac when he said that it's not personal.
