Should Canelo fight on Floyd's undercard in the future?

You are wrong in trying to compare DeLaHoya, Tyson, and Holyfield and other big draws of the past to Mayweather now. Those guys didnt live in a social media era or have the advantages o shows like 24/7, All Access or do 10 city press tours as they do now.

The numbers they were doing in that era were like drawin 1 mil plus now. Floyd didnt have a fight that drew a huge number until he fought DeLaHoya, and Oscar was the main reason for that. Floyd has shown that if he doesn't have a named opponent his numbers suffer.

In today's world 1mil buys is the standard for a superstar, and Oscar and Tyson would have no problem drawing those numbers with the advantages of today's media.

Social media and the television shows are good points but it also should be noted that there wasn't any streaming (or very little) when Tyson and De la Hoya were at their peaks. That pretty much evens things out. De la Hoya's biggest PPV was in the social media age and it was against Floyd. De la Hoya was very influential in Floyd's PPV success but it was Floyd's antics on 24/7 that took their fight to new levels. That's why DLH has never been close to 2 million at any other time.

Floyd has shown that if he doesn't have a name opponent his numbers suffer? Like when he got over a million fighting Ortiz? His only PPV's under a million since the DLH fight were Hatton and Guerrero.

Tyson>DLH>Floyd>Manny. All of them are superstars.
