    How much did Hopkins-Delahoya do compared to Mayweather-Delahoya?

    Mayweather did more numbers than Hopkins (Tarver/Wright) against a nobody (Baldomir)

      Nah. Hopkins did 305K with Winky.

      And those are two very big names. That num sucks.

      Hopkins-Tarver competed with Cotto-Malignaggi. I bought Migs-Paulie.

The reason why Floyd Mayweather is more popular than Bernard Hopkins is because Floyd was a undefeated multiweight champ who talks a lot to promote fights. Hopkins has a better resume still he does'nt earn nearly as much as Floyd or his PPV's dont do nearly as much. I heard Hopkins-Tarver and Hopkins-Wright done **** numbers, I mean Hopkins has Knocked out Felix Trinidad and Oscar De La Hoya, defended his titles 20 times, dominated Antonio Tarver and beat Winky Wright, but still not many people come to see his fights? I know some of you will say boring, but the man still wins, and thats what is important to come out with a W.
        How you win the fight is the most important thing in boxing.

          mayweather is more popular because he is undefeated. People who lack boxing knowledge automatically cheer for the guy who is named #1 p4p, cuz they dont really know ****, they just cheer for him.
