Comments Thread For: Mayweather: I'm The A-Side, My PPVs Built Canelo's Name

[djeffectz]

all PPV draws are all foreigners except for Oscar, Pac, Canelo, Cotto...

We need a american to draw, we only have Ward at the moment, this is sad.

he fogot to mention how a lot of his ppv fights have Mexican fighters on there and help him with the sales...I've said it before,lets see Floyd fight against an African American and nothing but non Hispanics on his undercard and see how he does

I agree with this. Let Mayweather fight another African American in February and we will see the real number of people that support Mayweather.

wow.... floyd actually has the balls to say this??? i guess its about that time when floyd turns up the obnoxious dial to 10.

oscar was building this ginger before he was televised on TV. canelo brought a huge following before he was featured on HBO. GBP is known for putting together a nice fight card, compared to TR. IMO, adding canelo to floyd cards only helped GBPs bottomline.

floyd is the p4p PPV king, no doubt. but give credit where its due, canelo carries heat.

theres a reason floyd fights on cinco de mayo... cash in on 'dem mexicans

How many PPV's has Canelo headlined? Simple question! OH AIGHT

Canelo is 22 years old. How many PPVs had floyd been in at 22? Oh AIGHT!

why not compare canelo- cotto to you know mayweather- cotto...

Lol because that would make them look bad!

[illmaticfighter]

Canelo-Cotto = Higher selling PPV than Money-Guerrero

No **** dumb phaggot mayweather has had his whole career to make a name for himself

Canelo is just starting out

come on, why you dudes gotta lie?

canelo and his team built his name in mexico before he even got here he had over 30 fights in mexico.

he had fights where all his brothers fought in the same night, he beat miguel vasquez twice dudes been boxing forever.

he's not a young 23 like you dudes like to pretend not experienced against elite fighters but he's not some guy that just started fighting yesterday.

which is why he was rushing to fight floyd in the first place.

Floyd's statement is in reference to who's the A-side right now isn't it? Floyd is Canelo's Oscar in the sense he'll make him bigger if he wins, and probably even when he loses. Floyd had at least headlined PPV's before Oscar, Canelo's obviously a huge draw, but answering who's the A-side right now, it's Floyd.

Also you're comparing a fight the magnitude of Oscar-Tito to Floyd-Guerrero?

Good Post bro
however I did comepare the oscar tito to floyd guererro because you compared canelos first PPV if it were against trout to Floyds PPV vs Guererro.
Flods is already an established fighter and he is the alpha dog when it comes to PPV.. So to compare his current PPV numbers to what would be Canelos first is hilarious. Thats equivelent to me comparing Oscar vs Mayorga 900k + to Foyld vs Hernandez (wasnt a PPV just like Canelo Trout wasnt) had it been PPV it probably would have done maybe 150k.

Let's see Mayweather fight on his BDAY or better yet 4th of July(independence day)... you know how many people would show up???? like 38 at best... all family.... Let's see Canelo fight on Sept 14 (Mexican independence day) or Cinco De Mayo... you know how many people would show up??? SELL OUT @ MGM!!!!!.... Owned much?? ya that's what I thought... sit yo a$$ down!

Agree with this as well. May 5th you can have Canelo at the MGM, Chavez JR at the Thomas and Mack Center, and JMM at the Mandalay Bay and they would all sell out.

Yo if all of these hispanic fighters or main draws and have solid fan bases how come NONE of them are headlining their own PPV?? Their the ones selling the fight right???

Outside of Marquez facing Pac... to this date name another Mexican headlining PPV and doing BIG numbers?? Hating ass... these cats fight on regular HBO/Showtime when their not on a Floyd card, but get on a Floyd card and all of a sudden people are buying the PPV because of them??

GTFOH with that B.S.
