    People couldn't illegally stream PPVs on the internet during Tyson's time, and there were fewer alternatives for tv entertainment. There weren't 500+ TV channels and YouTube didn't exist.

    It's MUCH harder to sell PPVs now a days. If you weren't a moron, you'd know this.

        Tell us how many hundreds of thousands of people you think bought the Mayweather/Mosley PPV to watch Alvarez fight a no-hoper on the undercard. I don't even know who Alvarez fought that night.

        However, Alvarez/Angulo sold 300,000 PPVs, so his fight against whoever he fought that night must have accounted for at least 800,000 of that 1.4 million, don't you think?

          De La Hoya chose Floyd's gloves for him and still lost. What is your point?

            Why not? If he released them, you and the other haters would still claim they were lying about the numbers.

              Brotha meaning fight Porter or Thurman. I don't want to hear they don't have a fan base becuz remember Floyd's name is what sells on PPV. If Floyd's name alone is what sells why does he only fight on Latin holiday's vs a Latin fighter and a loaded Latin under card? Floyd is fast to pull the RACE CARD when it benefits him, but won't fight a Brotha and give him a payday.

                  Fool! My point is Tyson didn't rely on a certain Race to sell on PPV. Floyd relies heavily on the Latin RACE for his PPV #'s

                    Nothing new. TBDE is certainly no Tyson. Tyson audiences came in droves to see action and celebrate boxing. Mayweather audiences want to see him lose. The ducking, vacationing, fake retirement, the Pac controversy added to the mystery and curiosity. His boring style is not even PPV material.

                      Who else was he supposed to fight at those times?
