Originally posted by radiotracer View Postthis is a misconception pac doesn't need floyd to make money. pac makes 30 million to fight which is similar to what floyd made against maidana but pac pays a lot less taxes by fighting in China. Pac has lost before and is not afraid to loose. Floyds zero loss is his bargaining chip. Because once he loses that mistique will be over and his marketability will diminish.

1) all the ppv you've mentioned, none were pac or Floyd who are clearly the biggest two ppv stars. You can't compare any pac or Floyd fight to Bradley vs JMM. That's unfair. 400k is horrible for any of those two fighters.
2) that's the difference between Floyd and pac. Pac would fight guys coming off losses, moving up in weight, fighters no one knows etc. Outside of pac, Floyd ALWAYS fights the biggest, most deserving fighter. No wonder pac sell value is plummeting
pac just did 800k in april, floyd 770k on a mexcian holiday. who is plummeting?

He got a floyd fight.. you might disagree tobwhat iam gonna say, but i feel pac re-signing with arum was a bad move and another roadblock on making this fight happen.... pac could have acted as a free agent with gbp co promoting and this fightbwould have been easier to make.. now they have to try extra hard which could have pacquaio accepting less then he ever wanted just to get the chance to fight floyd.

Regarding the buys, Floyd could've fought khan instead and get a garenteed 1 mil buy, but he's not pac and give fights opportunity to those who don't deserve it. Instead of going for the buys, he went to the MOST DESERVING FIGHTER. Pac is fighting algeri, a guy that's never fought above 140 before! Dude, just don't comment anymore
