Yeah, more popular. That's why they sell more, dummy. You act like America is full of one certain type of individual or something.

yah, they sell more compared to other u.s. fighters...and its obvious a u.s. boxers (mayweather) will outdraw a foreign fighter (pacquiao)...you still dont get the concept, meaining you're an idiot and a remedial

we are comparing PPV numbers between mayweather and pac and noone else...and yet you seem to take the entire U.S. boxing fraternity as a whole to make your argument

[Horus]

in the most powerful country in the world, people need to realize the bottomline is all that matters when it comes to status. You either can produce or you can't.
go hard or go home

Hard to call someone an idiot when you can't spell "meaning."

Anyway, Antonio Margarito was born in California. Miguel Cotto is from a US commonwealth. So judging by your "foreign fighter" crap, the only basis for your argument is Pacquiao-Clottey. Truthfully, this debate is ****** since these latest #s are something to be proud of. But with your head stuck up Manny's culo, it's high time someone pull you out.

i know margarito was born in the u.s., but he cant even speak english...and margarito considers mexico his home...and being foreign does play a role in viewership...like i said, lets see how mayweather/mosley would do in japan against two top japanese fighters fighting each other one day apart...i can garantee you that mayweather/mosley wouldnt sell the way they do in the U.S.

and thats my point about PPV SALES based off of u.s. only numbers where blacks/americans outnumber asians by over 200 million

Japan is different from the United States in that the good portion of the Japanese are native to the land (98.5%). That's just not the case in the US where a good portion of the population arrived within the past 110 years from countless other countries. So the comparison is just ******.

Second, Antonio Margarito could consider Pluto is home, he's still an American.

Great numbers. The UFC would be lucky to make those numbers without Brock Lesnar or someone else fighting.

Yeah but boxing would be lucky to have more than like 1 or 2 fights a year be this successful, as most events have underwhelming turnouts and ratings.

The consistency of having big numbers every month trumps have a HUGE number potential from guys that wont fight each other.

[jtiger78]

good numbers! it is what it is!!!!!

[Gino Ros]

What happen to 4 million PPV s Mosley MAyweather

They were only wrong for 2.6 million
