[QUOTE=Tomasio;15326023]Senile Arum at it again.. Just look at Pac's last few PPV's & ticket sales & even a blind person could see they have gone drastically down..[/QUOTE

it has more to do with his opponents

Algieri ---a nobody from 140
Rios ----Coming off a loss coming from 140
Bradley ---Not that popular

Khan vs Manny would do good numbers

Pacquiao is much in demand to fight boxers of Top Rank. They cannot even make money putting a Pacquiao fight in Las vegas anymore. If you will stage it in Vegas, it has to be Marquez, Bradley, Khan and Mayweather. Other than those fighters, Macau is the venue.

Wrong. Arum/Pac chose Macau due to tax savings and financial incentives.

Pac v. Khan will do really well.

it wouldn't even crack 500k.......

Both Mayweather and Pacquiao have been fighting scraps...because they have no one else to fight BUT EACH OTHER! Now I agree with you on Khan vs Pac if the mythical fight would fall through (kinda redundant...mythical fight and "falling through") hahaha

well at least he's off the jessie vargas narrative. for now....

wow for the last 5 years this old dirt bag has been lying his way out of the fight,like he once stated 'mayweather is the greatest fighter he has ever seen'...it's just that pac has no problem hiding behind his promoter,how can he look in the mirror that scared catch weight top prank fraud..thanks for killing boxing bob and manny you lying frauds

That old dirt bag Bob Arum played a key role in one of the greatest eras in boxing. Sugar Ray Leonard, Marvin Hagler, Roberto Duran, Thomas Hearns were all considered the best of their generation and they all fought each other, none of that would have been possible without Bob Arum.

Class dismissed.

high demand? nobody will pay to see manny fight unless he fights floyd. bob can lie to the public all he wants, the numbers say something completely different.

You act like Pacquiao is some low Z side lower than Ortiz or Guerrero, just stop hating dude. Pac and Floyd are the two biggest draws in boxing.

If Pac wasn;t in high demand how come he is meeting with powerful politicians, and doing so many interviews, with big name news companies, why does he have so many endorsement deals and sponsors?

He is among the highest grossing PPV stars in boxing history, the number 1 foreign born PPV star in America. Lennox Lewis was the heavyweight champion and he couldn't even draw the way Pac could.

Bottomline is the only fght fans what to see Floyd fight is Manny, Pacquiao never boasted about his ppv numbers he doesnt even care never made a deal of it, you Floyd fans and Floyd made a big deal about his ppv numbers as if it matters, real boxing fans could give a crap about who makes the most money, Floyd fans talk about irrelevant stuff like how many ppv Pac did, who cares. just make the fight thats all I and real boxing fans care about.

Tax also, but more importantly, they cannot make money in Vegas if Pac is to get the same Take home check. No more PPV bonanza in the US for Pacquiao. Mayweather or Khan or Bradley.

Unlike Mayweather who will make money whether Vegas or some other place.
