Pacquiao-Margarito at 1.1 Million PPV Buys... well short of Mayweather's 1.4 million.

b/c floyd is a more polarizing and popular figure. hes more known. simple as that

Exactly. Like it or not, being American does help. You think if Floyd was from Ghana and spoke broken english, he'd still be a top draw? There are many different factors as to why someone sells. Floyd represents the new and young America. I have no doubts that if Manny was American and spent his free time in the States, he'd be even more famous than he is now. Commercials all over TV, singing concerts, maybe even an low budget Hollywood film lol. Americans alike would be able to connect with him as countrymen.

To say its a non-factor, in America, is ridiculous. One reason UFC does so well is because White Americans get to cheer on people that look like them. Truth is, people support others who look like them. Nothing wrong with that.

PAWNAGE = getting owned like a pawn in a game!

BEING AMERICAN HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH PPV BUYS. GTFO FOOL!

Edit: Top 15 PPV buys had atleast one American except for Manny. now American boxer are irrelevant in American PPV? again GTFO!

Only one UFC champion is a White American just thought I would put that out there for you.

if floyd gets his split and OST

we have no problems getting this fight

[IAMBIAZED]

What? an easy, one-dimensional asian midget fighting old, slow, weight drained, and non-prime fighter getting 1.1M PPV buys and still counting? Holy Camote what were people thinking?

[V.WEBB]

.... not to mention the amount of Naggers

If you are going to say the word, then say it. I rather you be out in the open with it than try to disguise it.
