    If both win their next fights in style this fight must be made. I've read on here that quite a few people think that this fight would do 2.5 million buys or more but I personally can't see it.

    Vote and discuss.

    No. Floyd is not Oscar, otherwise, Pac/Oscar could have done it.

    I think it would, quite easily too.

    Pac wasn't the draw in the DLH fight that he is now (not in Europe anyway).

    oscar vs pac's number is not as high as floyd vs oscar. A bulk of the ppv buys comes from hispanics and floyd and pac obviously not hispanic. they will suffer on those sell but it should surpass oscar vs floyd in some aspect. maybe to the american public.

    For Pac-Floyd to surpass Oscar-Floyd both Pac and Floyd need to have impresses victories in their next 2 fights, and they have to put a lot of effort into the marketing of this fight if they want to surpass 2.5 million sales. I really hope that they can surpass 2.5 million sales because it would show everybody that boxing isn't dead.

    american public will remain constant coz u see, they will get to witness pac and mayweather at the same time. mostly outside US, specially in the Philippines, it is on cable TV so it is a non factor afterall. unless mayweather is a Mexican, so maybe.

    Pac nor Floyd would have the majority support of one of the biggest PPV buyers, HISPANICS.

    No. Neither guy has DLH's star power.

    I think Pac might get alot of support from Mexicans in PPV...They are already familiar with alot of his entertaining fights against their own Mexican legends. Mexicans and Mexican-Americans are true boxing fans...along with the mainstream momentum both men have gained this should be big. 2.2-2.3 million imo

    Hmm I'm undecided. He may do better than 2.5 mil if both boxer do well in their matches.
