How is that? He's not even fighting. Pac has earned more money than Floyd up to this point.

Floyd earn more money with one fight againts Pacquiao's 2? Are you sure?
Floyd isn't making money as often as Pacquiao due to his inactivity, do you really think he'd have problems finding an opponent? he could fight someone like Quintana 2 months from now and he'd easily make the same money Pacquiao did against Margarito
fact is
Floyd has outsold Manny every individual fight
That is to be expected considering that those fights were held on American soil. How many American boxers did Manny fight besides Oscar dela Hoya? One ..... David Diaz. And most of the American general public do not even see him as American.
Now, can you answer me this. Don't you think the Pacquiao-Mosley fight will outsell the Mayweather-Mosley fight?
with the amount of criticism the fight has gotten i doubt it'll do any higher than Pacquiao/Margarito, and if it does manage to it's due to the drastic amount of hyping they've had to do with CBS, Showtime, etc.
No matter how much hyping they do, if the fighters nor the fight itself isn't interesting then the fight will not sell.
Pacquiao-Mosley will definitely be bigger than Pacquiao-Margarito since the other half of that fight is a well-known American boxer. Besides, the criticisms mostly comes from the real boxing fans. Majority of the viewers, the general public, would just want to see a good fight between two recognizable boxers. As to whether it equals the Mayweather-Mosley is yet to be seen. If it does, then that would be an excellent feat on Manny's part.
