Pacquaio may be worth paying to watch, but Pacquaio vs. Diaz sure as hell wasn't IMO. 50 bucks is a lot for a glorified tune up fight.
Pacqauio vs. Casamayor or Nate Campbell, now thats a differnt story.
"You knocked him down...now how bout you try knockin me down ?"
Floyd Promoted the event well... Floyd was far from an overwhelming betting favorite and he moved up to challenge for the Lineal Welterweight Championship of the world...
Again another clear case of Floyd accuracey being in the 40% and his opponent landing in the 13%... Dont gimme this Floyd didnt knock him out crap, Tell me the last person who stopped Baldo? Forrest was teeing off on him and he couldnt put him down.... 2 entirely different examples my friend![]()
May be out of topic, but Forrest was landing everything at will and Baldo walked right through them. The same Forrest that knocked down and had Mosley in SEVERE trouble when they fought. The same Mosley who EVERYONE knows has an iron chin. Baldo must have taken a cortisone shot in his head for that fight...
You are way off on this, JT. Like other people said, it's the matchup that makes it worth it more than anything else, and Pac vs. Diaz was a far more interesting PPV purchase than Floyd/Baldomir or washed Jones/Tito for that matter.
It would be better if they priced Pac/Diaz less than that Pac/Morales, same as if they priced some of Floyd's crappy-ass PPV's but that's just not how they do it.
On top of it all, for 80% of all fans, Pac is much more exciting than Floyd, and considering he is the #1 star of ALL sports in the Philippines, he has the draw justify being a PPV fighter, even against Diaz. Hardcore fans who appreciate Floyd's skilled but more conservative style are in the minority compared to people who want aggression.
Your clearly racist.I gotta disagree wholeheartedly, Pac is the shizzit, he looked like a filipino SRL the way he was in and out and landing from every angle. That was fun to watch...you cant say he doesn't give his all. Diaz put on a great show of heart but he was just a day late and a dollar short in the speed department.
I've never been a big PAC fan... Sure, now that Flyd retired he's at the #1 P4P spot and 98% of fans would put him there... I tend to agree with JT, though... Not to say that all Floyds fights were barnburners cuz that's just crazy talk... I think we all know I don't like Floyd at all but I did not buy the fight the other night and that's pretty rare.
I don't really know what it is... I mean, I always see his fights after when reaired and enjoy them but I'm not really willing to shell out 50 bucks to watch him live.

This is a joke coming from a floyd fan. I would pay for a Pac PPV before a floyd PPV every day of the week and twice on Sunday.
He is a far more exciting fighter.
