      This question really aint up for debate.

      Its DLH hands down. SpinksJinx must be high to come on and say that his numbers are dropping considering his last fight made $54 million in profit and is #2 all time on the list for non heavyweight fights.

      A fight not selling out has nothing to do with people in attendance. There talking about tickets sold, but you also have to count in what the Casino's gave away for promotions and all the copmanies that were involded recieving tickets to give out. Thise dont count as far as tickets sold. Look at the stadium there wasn't an empty seat in the house.

      Trinidad has a very nice following, but it aint close what DLH does.

      The two highest grossing non heavyweight fights of all time are

      1 DLH vs Trinidad
      2 DLH vs Hopkins

      DLH has like 8 of the top 10

      Compare the PPV numbers for Tito and DLH and there is no question who is the bigger draw.

            i'll have to say those DLH fans

            seriously they gaved dlh a chance against Hopkins, if dlh fights mike tyson they would still believe that dlh can win, they never doubt DLH's skills and that he would win

              De la hoya has lost "some" of his drawing power...In all honesty, I expected hopkins vs dlh to surpass the trinidad ppv buys in every aspect....


              De La Hoya, isnt the big superstar he was 5-6 years ago...Although he is still in the top 3 of the biggest draws their isnt any doubt about that...

                How?

                The DLH/Hopkins fight was all sold on DLH's name. Bernard Hopkins although a great fighter couldn't draw flies.

                How on earth anyone can try and make the argument that he has fallen off in drawing power when his very last fight made $54 million in profit is amazing.

                No he's not one of the top 3 he's # 1 and its not up for debate.
                Look up all the numbers and stats you want and they will all tell you the same thing NO ONE outside of the heavyweight divsion even comes close to doing the numbers he does.

                      what do u mean with "To bad"..actually we are about the size of connecticut, with a population of about 4 million..Do you mean that Tito doesn't have fans outside or PR..
