    Pacquiao does really good numbers against known names and 200k against Diaz was pretty good, considering the record is 400k below 147, which is ironically held by Pacquiao-JMM 2.

    And Marquez doesn't do more buys, his fight with Casamayor bombed in the box office.

        pacquiao against an unknown diaz for a org trinket had more buys than marquez and casamayor (two HOFers) for the lineal title.

        that's amazing.

                  However,
                  Hes just a terrible example of a boxing fan who happens to be Mexican.

                  The mexicans I know would dsown this guy. The mexican people I know are humble secure in their manhood to let something like this affect them like this dude. Alof of mexicans root for pacquiao at least the one who watched at my pad. Some even had money on PAC and had more faith then I did cuz I told em to kiss their money goodbye. This guy just has insecuities. He thinks tough fighters have something to with his own toughness. His character ain't one to rep. Dude pot shots in this forum and disappears when he gets owned.

                    Same reason people thought Mayweather would be a star after he beat De La Hoya. We tend to over inflate the importance of the fighters in our sport.
