Plus he's Latino and panders to the Mexican audience, built-in fanbase. Tim, although a good fighter, doesn't excel at anything particularly, he's just a well rounded guy who works hard. Also, his personality (homebody, family man, little league football coach, ect.) is not very intriguing or controversial. It doesn't help that the media and fans alike vilified him for getting a gift decision in the first. With that said, social media doesn't paint the entire picture and we don't know how much Tim's popularity has increased until his next fight and what kind of ratings he puts up.

He also has a very unmemorable style... Very good but it's just all over the place, no signature.
