Who's the most sought after fighter???

[boxbox]

i mean who's the fighter everyone wants to get in the ring with?? may it be for the money or for legacy?!?

I for one would pick Manny Pacquiao. Every one wants a piece of him. Win or lose, he's a good ticket for some good money.:hat

who else?? Dela Hoya is another!:good

[Hatesrats]

De La Hoya is currently the meal ticket.

[FLINT ISLAND]

obviously it is the Golden Gooses for in or around their weights to earn a big payday and have a crack at the best so going through the weights the main guys are:

Klitishko
Joe Calzaghe
Oscar De La Hoya
Floyd Mayweather
Ricky Hatton

[TommyV]

De La Hoya. Huge name on the decline, great money aswell.

[FLINT ISLAND]

De La Hoya is currently the meal ticket.

De La Hoya has been the meal ticket since 1990's

[PJ]

ODLH hands down...

[Hatesrats]

De La Hoya has been the meal ticket since 1990's
I say currently because his reign at the top of the box office is coming to it's end.
but "Currently" he is still the guy.

and he knows this thats why he's been carefully choosing his opponents right?

[J.R.]

ODLH hands down...Yep.

[Sandmanl337]

Manny Pacquiao would be.. I mean not only beating him would make your resume look great, but a huge payday would be in order too.. I mean who hasn't mentioned that they wanted to fight him? I would then say Floyd Mayweather, because not only do people want to sit on top of the WW division, but because fighting him too would also give them a big payday as well.. Oscar would be third and just for the pay..

[Hatesrats]

I honestly don't ever see Manny Pacquiao as the the top guy in PPV boxing.
His fight with David Diaz will prove that, I think.

he might fall under the Mayweather clause, depends on who the opponent is.
then again who know's, I'll be buying his fight's tho.

KP has a chance to take that crown.
Until JCC Jr. wins his first champioship then it's over

[FLINT ISLAND]

meal ticket use to be even though most guys were shit scared to get in there with him - Mike Tyson.

Frankl Bruno's reward for winning the WBC Heavyweight Title was a career high purse of £4,500,000 for making his first defence against Mike Tyson who as the chalenger was way outearning Bruno on about $20,000,000 purse.

All Bruno had to do was go in there be the scarfice and get beat up and give up his WBC - and then he could reitre with a big fat penison and live in comfort for the rest of his life - Tysons fist dont hurt so much then when you know thats what you can look forward to after the fight

agreed it cant go on much longer he is a part time fighter and fading force

[boxbox]

so i guess more fighters now would rather fight someone for the money rather than legacy huh?

for most fighters it is always been about the money but they dont want to be seen that way

prime example

RICKY HATTON

[eliqueiros]

Besides DLH, Pacman and Hatton.

One Q to my U.K. peep's I always wondered..
Who will sell more PPV's & fill more stadiums Hatton or Calzaghe?

[Asterion]

De la Hoya.

Depends on who they are fighting :good

I would have to say Hatton is one of the most popular UK fighters there has ever been - on PPV sales he outsells Joe I am sure and Stadiums - well thats a closer thing cos Calzaghe has got all wales behind him and fills out the millenium and stuff - but on PPV sales it is Hatton against any bum
