His number are still very good. Still the second biggest draw in boxing, and still doing numbers Canelo, Chavez Jr. and the future stars of boxing can only hope to reach.

I think to most casual fans, there was no need to watch the fight. The first fight was a robbery and Bradley, outside of serious boxing fans, isn't a draw. With JMM, you have a huge Mexican following. Cotto and Mosley were fellow "big names" that people would get excited about.
I'd expect numbers to be similar to Clottey.

Originally posted by 4Corners View PostI remember there used to be people on here arguing that Manny was a bigger draw at the gate than Floyd.......Floyd routinely with the same opponents draws bigger gates. The only exception being Marquez.
For example, I buy Floyd fights because I want to see him lose one day. It looks like that will never happen at this point, but Ill probably get his remaining fights just because there might be a .0001% chance that he could lose. It will be one of those sporting events that people remember for years.

But canelo was huge in creating those numbers. Mexico and Mexicans every where love canelo. He also had a main event undercard that was highly anticipated on the card. If it was Floyd against any other Mexican umm say Guerrero with no undercard how would it do?
8mil is a solid number IMO with no undercard on a rematch which most consider a robbery. You get what I'm saying?
Mayweather made neutrals buy the fight because it was deemed a risky fight.
