    I agree. Also I don't think arum has built up/ marketed Bradley enough.0

      800K isn't bad, that more than doubles the 300k fat boy consuelo did against angulo.

          It was a great fight with two top P4P guys swinging for the fences

          800k vs Bradley is a huge success.

          I think Bradley vs JMM did like 350k buys
          Yes the Bradley vs JMM had numbers like JMM vs Casamsyor

              I know right. I mean Canelo and Angulo are about as Mexican as you can get and it did worse than Both PAC vs Bradley fights

                800k is better than I expected. The undercard was ****.

                      Right, I mean there has never been a traditional support for African American boxers apart from Floyd so there should have been some market research done to figure out how to fix that.

                      Floyd is flashy and people liken that to hiphop stars or something but not everyone has money like that to portray that lifestyle.
