Manny Pacquiao’s options for well paid fights like the one last Saturday against Mario Barios are very limited. The 46-year-old world champion of the 46-year-old Pacquiao World Division against WBC Welterweight, Barrios (29-2-2, 18 kos), was not exciting to see. The buzz of the fans disappeared by this fight.
Pacquiao received a huge rumor monitor to be $ 12.6 million for the fight. The price of the PPV, $ 79.99, probably resulted in very few purchases last Saturday. The question is, which promoter would be willing to finance the resuscitation of the Barrios for the Philippine star? They cannot be enthusiastic about wanting to re -pay the huge pacquiao purse if the PPV buys and Gate Money does not cover the paid purses.
The ppv draw on Manny’s decline
The reality is that Pacquiao is no longer a large enough PPV draw to provide the massive purchases he made in the past. Here are some of Manny’s biggest PPV purchases during his years from 2008 to 2015:
It would be fortunate that the event of Pacquiao vs. Barrios on Saturday generates even 100,000 PPV purchases, given the limited interest in this struggle and the subcard that accompanied him.
Manny’s advisor, Sean Gibbons, mentioned Gervonta Davis’s wants or WBA Welterweight’s champion Rolando ‘Rolly’ Romero as the next opponents. There is zero possibility that the Tanc Davis will fight against Pacquiao. This does not happen. It’s not that desperate.
The fight against Rolly Romero would not be different from confronting Barrios again. Rolly is not an attraction of the PPV, and a fight against him would create little interest on the part of the fans. An event between Pacquiao and Romero would be likely Hemorrhage money For the promoter who put it.
“The only other alternative is to return. canal On the options for the next struggle of Manny Pacquiao if he decides to face Mario Barrios in a resale.
It would be risky that a promoter stages a second struggle between Pacquiao and Barrios, unless Manny was ready to agree with a smaller purse. The fans are not enough interest in seeing them again. Barrios seemed inept and Pacquiao seemed very old.
“I hope you do other things. I do not want to see him in the ring enough time to see someone oblivion him, and that comes at some point. If he ways the wrong guy, this will come to Manny Pacquiao,” said Mannix.
