Everyone knows this fight is going to be on the table soon assuming Floyd wins and assuming Pac wins if he even fights before that, I assume he will.
If Floyd had wanted to fight Manny in his first fight back he would have waited till the day after the Hatton fight to decide who he was going to fight. I doubt there are serious discussions to get out of the JMM fight unless the fight is doing extremely poorly economically. I don't really know how poorly its doing.
I really doubt its doing poorly enough that they would buy JMM out of his contract. It would have to have sold on a similar level to the Dawson-Tarver II fight to justify that, & as the cheaper level of tickets have all sold out (I've checked today as I was considering going over) I really doubt it's doing as badly as some people make out.
You would think its gotta do 500, 000 buys. I would think. I mean he did 300 plus vs Baldoajamu I think.
It will be interesting to see how much Pacquaio vs Cotto does in comparison. I'm sure if it does clearly more Mayweather will say Cotto was a bigger draw and I guess he'd be right. Come to think of it I don't know how I'd rank JMM on the "draw" scale. I guess not as high as he should be.
