    Mayweather still the man in boxing

    Manny Pacquaio is making @ least $164 000 for every shot he landed on Hatton or
    $2 000 000 for every minute he was in the ring fighting now thats some good money.

    Having said that Floyd is still the man.Hatton-Pacquaio did not sell as fast as Hatton-Mayweather which was sold out within 33 minutes.
    Mayweather -Hatton got more more than $10 million,Hatton-Pacquaio did $8million in gate takings.That means many people were willing to pay more to watch Mayweather fighting with Hatton than Hatton with Pacquiao.
    Mayweather-Hatton did 850 000 buys in the US,generating $47m in the USA,but did 1 million buys in the UK as well.The fugures for Manny-Hatton will be out soon.
    Pacquaio-Oscar generated 1.25 million PPV.Mayweather-Oscar did 2.4 million buys.
    Pacquia-Oscar generated $70 million ppvs and the Oscar-Mayweather fight did $134.5 million in sales.

    Pacquiao-Oscar's gate takings did $17m,Oscar- Mayweather did $18.5m.Many people paid a premium to watch Mayweather than Pacquiao.What it means is the Mayweather brand is a premium brand,many people happily folk out more money to watch the Money Mayweather than anyone else in boxing.

    Mayweather shuttered the record with Oscar,was the first 24/7 show which is an award winning show.Soon the 24/7 will be a standard for every big fight.In all these ,every fighter who has fought Mayweather made more money than he had ever made in his life.Even Carlos Baldomir generated over 400k in PPVs,and Baldomir made his first $1m cheque.Baldomir sent his kids to a different school after the Mayweather fight and took his family out to a meal after the Mayweather fight.Though trivial it might interest some to know that Baldomir knew about the ipod because of Mayweather and subsequently got his own after the fight

    Oscar Delahoya made more money fighting Mayweather than he did fighting Pacquiao.He also made more with Mayweather than with Hopkins which was a higher risk fight.Manny's stock has gone up now,with good marketing he stands to make a lot more outside the ring.Floyd has been doing some bits outside the ring but his team is obviously not as smart as Floyd thinks it is.The guy could be making sackloads of money out there.

    All in all Money Mayweather is still the man in boxing.Where your treasure is is where your heart is.People are willing to spent more in Mayweather's fights so that's where their hearts are even though some are in denial.

    What do you guys have to say about Floyd being the man now that you are faced with numbers?

        Couple days after Manny's fight and Floyd fans are already on the defensive. They just can't swallow that Pac did in 2 easy rounds what took floyd 8 hard rounds. Can't we acknowledge that they're both great fighters? The only difference is that one takes all comers and the other cherry picks fighters smaller than him? Guess which.

          Junior Jones KO'd Barrera in 5 rounds.

          Took Pac 11 rounds or hitting him with everything before Barrera's team stopped it.

          Your an idiot, LOL

                  Yeah it's too bad Pac is stronger at 140 than 130. Hatton was in his natural weight and Pac still knocked him out faster than Mayweather did. Your example has nothing to do with Pac's ability to finish faster and better than Mayweather.

                    Are you aware that Corales was way bigger than Floyd and had a good knockout ratio.Oscar was way bigger than Floyd just to mention 2
