    Exactly! Roach shot himself in the foot with that comment. So when it's time to fight and they ask for a catchweight they will get bashed and rightfully so. The fight will have to take place at 147 or there will be no fight.

    you won't have any case if the floyd-jmm fight tanks and the pac-cotto fight does well.

    Floyd's fights against Hatton and Oscar did WAY better than Pac's.

    The JMM fight is just a TUNE-UP

    Cotto/Fanny Pac is billed as a BIG-FIGHT

    NOBODY is expecting the JMM fight to be as big as Pac v Cotto.:hi:

    Not mayweather buys thats for sure, it will be Marquez buys lets see how many Mayweather fans are at the actual fight,
    Truth is Pimp fans are not interested in Floyd, his style doesnt set right with them, yes he is making money, yes he has a win over Oscar that should have sent him to the top but you have to admit What manny has done with their two common opponents, Fans got a taste of what they should be getting from a fighter who is considered the best fighter p4p

    Pimp I would bet Cotto Pacquiao does Better than Floyd JMM and dont give me no excuses here about well this or that, No you guys say Floyd is the draw period lets see him prove it now, cus as far as I know Marquez will have the support of his people and I am betting that his people are the only ones who watch this fight live on PPV

    in other words, why settle for pork when you can have steak?

    I disagree and the numbers prove it. PBF-JMM will do more than Pac-JMM did. PBF is a draw he might not have the fans at the fight or weigh in because truthfully blacks don't show up to sporting events in droves because we have a rich tradition of great athletes it's nothing new for us and not a big deal like it is for Pinoys or Mexicans we have many atheltes to cheer check the NFL and NBA for reference.:deal But we will support the fight with buys. PBF is a draw and the numbers don't lie until you actually see a decline then you might have a point until then it's pure bull****.

    Tell me what? he could be making one dollar more for all I know you dont know what he is making prove it, and its not what the fighters make, lets see which fight does better numbers if Floyd really is the attraction if he really is the draw this fight should be at least compairable in terms of numbers.

    No no no it dont work that way, you compair the numbers between Pac vs Cotto and JMM vs FMJ....
    if your boy is such the draw you say he is there should be no reason he cant match or beat those numbers.

    No the comparison is made with same opponents and if you go buy that PBF is already up 2-0 about to be 3-0 when PBF-JMM outsells Pac-JMM. If PBF fought Cotto he would do more buys than Pac did and his tarck record against common opponents proves this.:deal

    Bull**** that is a supid Nuthugger way of trying to pull a fast one, IMO you have four guys Pac #1 P4P Cotto #6 P4P (this is going to do great numbers)
    Then you have JMM#2 P4P vs Mayweather who should also be in the top ten P4P, meaning you bascily the fights are evened out, who can sell their game better is now the question, who is the draw will be be determained when these numbers are released Manny and Floyd both have big fights, now we will see who the people like more.

    Flawed logic. Both fighters have a proven track history. When PBF was active he was P4P #1 and Pac was P4P 3 or 2. During that time PBF had better PPV numbers when he fought Hatton he was #1 and Hatton was like #5 or #6 When Pac fought Hatton he was #1 and Hatton ws like #5 or #6 PBF out drew Pac there. When PBF fought Oscar he was #1 and Oscar was #1 at 154 not ranked in the top 10 P4P. When Pac fought Oscar he has #1 and Oscar wasn't ranked at 147 and not in the top 10 P4P and PBF once again out drew Pac. No matter your spin PBF has constantly outdrawn Pac with common opponents while both were on top of the sport. No argument can be made otherwise.:deal

    what you are saying and arguing is pure and utter bull**** even you know that, Both men have big fights comming up, both opponents are in the top 10 P4P, and if Floyd is the draw like you say he is like all your buddys say he is like he himself claims if Floyd is such an attraction this fight with JMM should do much bigger numbers than Mannys fight with Cotto that is of course if Floyd is the attraction

    Just ****ing admit Floyd is not the attraction and we can stop there
