    Both Oscar and Hatton fans were the ones who purchased the PPVs, not Floyds. Floyd would still be on ESPN if it weren't for those two guys.
    How many times did Oscar do 2.4 million buys? Even though he fought everyone...

        That was because Mayweather was the P4P champ. Nobody is arguing the fact that Mayweather was good just not a draw. Oscar's fans wanted to see him fight and beat a great fighter.

        Mayweather was a big name in boxing. When a PPV king like ODLH fights a big name (such as p4p #1) it would be natural for even his draw to be bigger.

          Plus if you want to argue with that,

          how many times did PBF having ANYTHING CLOSE TO 2.4 million buys?

          I know Oscar had quite a few huge numbers, PBF I believe had nothing close to even 1 million buys.

            floyds ability to draw
            cotto is definitely a bigger draw the day before PR parade day in MSG.

            who knows how big cotto would be without PR parade day and MSG

                    You can say that was JUST DLH, or JUST Hatton... but the fact is... Hatton and DLH never sold that much either in their entire careers...

                    And DLH has fought ALL of the big names...
                    Cotto has more fans then Floyd! you have to just realize it already that people don't like Floyd. If you were a true P4P great you would'nt have to argue with fans and try to convince them that ur the best. LOL!
