Can we put the Mayweather PPV king arguements to rest?

It doesn't matter idiot. It's about popularity, not ****ing weight classes ****.
Nice 135 lb. cutoff, as if the 5 pounds above, where he fought Gatti (@140), is enough to make a difference in what the 'average American' thinks. Heavyweight is the only weight class with that type of stigma.Comment

wtf?
more like ppl pay him to see him lose because after the big hype up againts dlh, it became like a balareena show. then **** started to slow down in terms of ppv sales.You don't have to be the biggest name in boxing to be the biggest draw.
More people know who Manny is than Floyd or any other current boxer. Manny has been on TIME magazine and has done other things that most boxers don't get to do. How many boxers have multi-million dollar endorsement deals?
Floyd is the biggest draw, but Manny is more popular. Floyd has better PPV numbers because his fans and the haters pay to see his fights.
next show for floyd was againts hatton, both were hyped up to lose their 0. 1mill down from 2.5 mill and dont get me started with Marquez.
Because his an American. someone mentioned Flooyd coudnt sell out his hometown,>/?Comment

What's so hard to understand?
Floyd is the cash cow and Manny is more popular than Floyd.
I think he was the first boxer in history to be on the cover of TIME magazine.
Manny is more popular than Floyd outside the ring.Comment

and how much ppv does gatti-pbf generate at 140? 400k? pac-hatton at 140 sold almost 900k, it's still the hightest ppv numbers 140 and below. higher than dlh & pbf numbers at the same wt class.It doesn't matter idiot. It's about popularity, not ****ing weight classes ****.

That was after De La Hoya, Mayweather-Gatti was before De La Hoya. Unlike you, I couldn't give **** about who's the bigger draw, but the fact is Mayweather is the bigger draw.
If Pacquiao-Clottey does 1 million, then you can argue something. Because Mayweather-Mosley is gonna sell 1.5 and Mosley doesn't even have a fan base.Comment

now your making excuses. i'll use it on you. The Pac-JMM was also before the Pac-dlh and in much lighter weight class. Who you think is a draw Gatti or the 130 lbs JMM?That was after De La Hoya, Mayweather-Gatti was before De La Hoya. Unlike you, I couldn't give **** about who's the bigger draw, but the fact is Mayweather is the bigger draw.

Floyd-JMM 1M PPV, Pac-Cotto 1.3M same weight class...JMM's top PPV before the fights was 450K with the Pac fight. Cotto's top was with the Cheato fight at 500K, So no excuses... Pac outdraws PBF...PBF was...Pac's top PPv draw now!!Comment
