AJ is a more well known star in the UK and if he was walking down a street in NY Im sure he'd be more reocgnised than a short, pale Irish fella.
    I think all social media numbers and PPV numbers point to the opposite. but fair enough. If you look at UFC PPVs without McGregor, they hardly crack 200k except 200.

    And we talk current pull power, right?

        It's probably still Mayweather if he promotes his fight as much as the others.

        He will be going for 50-0, that's a big PR angle right there.

          Again, simple question, who is more internationally recognised? It really is a simple question with a simple answer.

          Pac can sell out stadiums in asia if he so wished (opr was allowed by one of his ***ish handlers). McG is an american media hype job who barely got past a drunk Nick Diaz. McG could neevr be on a UK ppv without either pac or may.

          That's all I'm saying. I'm not arguing about him being a star because he certainly is.

              Well does that really matter? Who bring in more revenue currently? certainly McGregor without a shadow of doubt.

              Pacquiao did 300k PPVs in his last fight and that's the range he's been in other than the mayweather fight. he did something like 5 million at the gate tops. McGregor did 1.3mil buys and 20mil gate.

              So not a question. And if Pacquiao can draw so much in asia, why doesn't he?

                Until proven otherwise the biggest star is still Floyd.
