The only one I can think of is Cotto vs Margarito which was a big fight but these guys don't have anything on Mayweather or Mosley for name value. (Cotto comes close)
ODLH vs Shane Mosley 1
Felix Trinidad vs ODLH
Pernell Whitaker vs Julio Cesar Chavez

Come to mind straight away.
Shit, how did I forget Trinidad DLH? lol!

That was BIG - Hope this fight is better though.

Miles, sorry shoulda clarifed - I didn't mean in terms of PPV. Just mean in terms of anticipation and 2 great fighters going at it but of course you're right, "anticipation" can definitely be measured by the post fight numbers.

Also Chavez vs Whitaker would have been bigger I imagine? Were they both in their primes at the time?

I don't know about Mosley DLH 1 - Wasn't that Mosleys first fight up from lightweight?
