Is Mayweather really that big a draw?

[Flawless.]

Believe me people do not order these fights or go see them live with Mayweather to watch him fight. Its to see the other guy and to see Mayweather lose/get knocked out.

If you want Mayweather's draw power to be defined as drawing people to come see him lose then i would say his draw power is pretty big.

But as far as drawing people to see him because he is exciting and puts on a show. It is pretty damn small

That is why Mayweather has a higher KO% than Margarito. While Mayweather is the smaller guy and Margarito is the bigger guy

[Flawless.]

Hatton/Mayweather outsold Oscar-Pacman worldwide. And it was Hatton first PPV

[DIOS DOMINICANO]

If Mayweather fought Pacquiao, Margarito, or Hatton, or even Cotto. Wouldnt it be safe to say Mayweather is NOT the draw in these fights because we all know just about everyone in that crowd will be Filipino, Mexican, British, or Puerto Rican

Name Hatton's non-FMJ pay per views (in the US). Hatton-Collazo wasn't sold out. Hatton-Castillo wasn't sold out. Hatton-Malignaggi was on free HBO. Why was Hatton-Mayweather a HUGE fight, then? Why?

Name Gatti's non-FMJ pay per views.

Name Judah's biggest PPV.

Name Delahoya's biggest fight?


All coincidence....right?

What about the Fights Floyd headlines.. Has he ever "headlined" a PPV??

Before he fought Gatti.. the man was virtually invisible..

Floyd's Biggest fights have all been against ALREADY established TV stars..

I think his drawing power is limited to the man in front of him..

I also think a sizable chunk of the Boxing public has lost interest in him...
