Comments Thread For: Pacquiao vs Clottey Lands 700,000 Pay-Per-View Buys

[megas30]

This is what happens when you fight Cotto 1.2 million buys. And then go fight the guy who just lost to Cotto after you destroyed Cotto=700,000 buys don't worry they'll try and make it look good by saying Manny did it all by himself lol. That's just a cover up. He wasn't in the ring by himself all night now was he? alright then. And didn't Arum say that Pacquiao-Clottey would sell as much as Pacquiao-Cotto? yeah he did. Pacquiao couldn't even crack a million. Well one thing is for sure. He can forget about a 50-50 split with Mayweather that is out the window. And he has noone to blame but himself cause he quickly signed to fight Clottey to duck Mayweather!!

Trust me, majority of Ghanaian community bought this fight and are being ignored.

I thought you opinion actually made sense until I read this line. IF Floyd is the bigger PPV draw, then Floyd IS the biggest star. The biggest star is the one who draws the most attention/fans and the most money. That would be Floyd Mayweather. It doesn't matter how many awards you win nor does it matter how many divisions you win a title in. All that matters in boxing is THE MONEY, and Floyd "Money" Mayweather is king in that area.

thats the sad truth.... boxing is about the money, not the fights or fighters' accomplishments... so we got a sport filled with "elite" divas...

regardless if ur team Floyd or team Pacman ( lol) this is great for boxing!! 70K buys for a fight where there was only one known fighter without a dance partner would have been 8th of all time on UFC ppv buys of all time.

True. Instead, Mayweather will fight Mosley in a rematch for another $20 to $25 million or fight Timothy Bradley for $15 million or go across the pond to England and fight Matthew Hatton in Wembley stadium with 100,000 in attendance and get $20 million out of it. With those options, 100 percent of nothing against Pac doesn't sound bad at all.

hahaha manny will retire soon,and the legacy will continue with the pacman!!

[crossybossy]

great numbers. fact is: everyone needs a dance partner. floyd and manny. blaow. end thread.
