    I think it shows that manny is a better draw as a boxer and that floyd does a tremendous job promoting and marketing himself....

    manny didn't do very much at all, if anything, to sell himself and he still brought in 50,000+ to the Dallas stadium and 700,000 ppv buys against a virtual unknown

    Pac is exciting to watch. Void "The Roid" Mayweather is boring as Hell.

    This is thinking way too simply.

    Pac-Cotto 1.25 million buys.
    Mayweather - Mosely 1.2 Million buys

    Mayweather Mosely was MASSIVELY marketed and still didn't beat the numbers of PAc - Cotto.

    To acheive 700,000 against Clottey who is relatively unknown (and DUCKED) is an achievement in itself.

    Well Cotto's puerto rican buy total were added to the stats. So technically it did 1.14

    Dont forget that Mayweather vs Hatton did bigger numbers in the UK than Pacquiao vs Hatton.

    BTW is 1.2 confirmed for Mosely/Mayweather, I havent seen anything published yet?

    Oh, so when puerto ricans purchase anything, they should be left out? or just selectively for this fight :-(
