Pacquiao, who extended his record to world championships in eight different weight divisions by winning the vacant WBC super welterweight title in the 12-round fight — a unanimous-decision win in which Pacquiao broke the orbital bone around Margarito's right eye — has generated more than a million buys in each his last five fights, "The Pacquiao-Margarito pay-per-view figures significantly exceeded our expectations," Taffet said Tuesday. "We're thrilled with the fans' show of support and look forward to building on the momentum through the rest of 2010 and into 2011." Pacquiao's victory against Oscar De La Hoya generated 1.25 million buys in 2008, and his victory against Miguel Cotto in 2009 generated 1.2 million buys. Pacquiao is back in the Philippines, where he has resumed his duties as the elected congressman from the Sarangani Province. Pacquiao said he will fight for three more years before retiring.</td> <td style="background-image: url("http://static.bbmp3.com/images/pie/5.gif");"> </td> </tr> <tr> <td width="60"> </td> <td></td> <td style="background-image: url("http://static.bbmp3.com/images/pie/7.gif");"> </td> <td></td> </tr> </tbody></table> Source: Manny Pacquiao's latest win draws $64 million in PPV revenue - USATODAY.com
