When has Floyd ever brought in a crowd of 40,000 to see him fight? He can talk all the trash he wants, but Canelo really is a draw and helped his ass sell all them PPVs he sold in the last couple of years.
Floyd could never sell out his hometown with cheap tickets.

A young Floyd probably couldn't, but this version could fill up at least 80% of the Wolverine stadium.
Based on what?
Let's be real Canelo hasn't headlined a PPV in his careeer ever, his numbers vs Trout were way lower then what they were with the Cotto/Trout fight AND that's with Trout coming off a high win. They dumped so much promotion in this fight only because Canelo's risking that 0 so cashing out is more sensible if he's gonna lose. After this there's not really anymore Mexicans for Floyd to fight so they might as well go all out.

Comparing $500-$700 for nose bleed seats at a Floyd fight, to $10-$20 nose bleed at Canelo-Trout, SEEMS LEGIT.

You drew 40,000 but broke NO RECORDS AT THE GATE?
That tells you that the Tickets was dirt cheap, they did that so that they can convince you that Canelo is worthy of fighting Mayweather and try to convince you that he is just as big if not a "Bigger" Draw then Mayweather lol and a lot of the Casuals actually believe that obviously by reading post like this HAHAHA
If I was a Boxer I would much rather break records in front of a smaller crowd that Paid TOP $ to come see me fight then to pack in 40,000 just to say you drew 40,000
I think it was a great thing that GBP did for the fans to offer a big fight for affordable ticket prices in Texas but to try and use that to say "Canelo Is A Bigger Draw Than Mayweather" is kinda Laughable!
After this Mayweather fight Win Lose Or Draw Canelo will official be a draw, especially if he can get the upset or even if he can maybe Drop Mayweather or catch him with a good punch and represent himself well he will go on to be a Big Draw
Mayweather fights exclusively at MGM, I don't know how much it holds but when you take into account the prices of the tickets and compare that to Canelo's 40K sellout, I believe mayweather wins that argument. But does it really matter.
If Floyd tickets were 10'dollars I'm sure he could
Of course. But here's where in going with this...
Floyd always tries to take all the credit for his high PPV sales and seems to forget about everyone who was part if the card. I guess Canelo can brag about him putting 40,000 asses in seats for the Trout fight. he can one up him there.:dunno:
Canelo wouldn't draw 40k people for a ppv and mayweather ticket prices.
I bet 70-80 percent of people are there to root for canelo. You will hear the chants come fight night:boxing:

what difference does it make....
this is boxing.... not a popularity contest....
i don't care who's the best looking, or the most well spoken, or who has the biggest d i c k.....
i'm about... who's the better fighter.... who has the better defence, the sharper punching, the most accuracy....
it's boxing.... not a beauty pageant.
Who said anything about looks you fcking closet homo:poke:
Canelo = the best draw in the game people go to support him not see him lose
True and Floyd knows that, he will probably big up Canelo after the fight (depending on what happens) but before hand Floyd has to be Floyd would you expect Floyd promoting a fight to act any different
