      The point he's making is he was more popular when he had his 0.

        This is undoubtedly true in Chavez's case. His popularity has gone way downhill.

          He took a really bad hit in that Fonfara fight

          people in the stands were legitimately pissed that he "quit." They were angry...throwing beers, yelling, ripping off their red headbands and stomping them on them on the ground.

          While that fight turned out bad-- you'd think that I, and other fans, would have learned better even before that fight..yet, we were all still there.

          I imagine those people will still be into this fight, just be rooting for Canelo. It will sell

            He was also undefeated and a champion at the time.

            A lot has happened since then. His recent numbers on Showtime have been poor with suggests that his fan base has given up on him. He's also had a string of poor performances. This fight is also not for a belt, and Jr. has opened up as an 8-1 underdog. Whereas he was only a 2-1 underdog.

            Expect similar numbers to Khan.
