Dan Rafael - Mayweather/Mcgregor didn't break PPV record

[Pandur]

How doesn't it?

Only 4 fighters in the history of the sport have been able to reach 2 million or more. All of them include Mayweather.

Oscar's biggest seller - Mayweather
Pacquaio's biggest seller - Mayweather
Canelo's biggesr seller - Mayweather
Cotto's biggest seller - Mayweather
Mosley's biggest seller - Mayweather
Hatton's biggest seller - Mayweather

There's a reoccuring theme here.

Ofcourse. In this era with social media etc. it makes it easier to sell over 2 mil.
All of the figthers are very popular and have big fan bases compared to others in boxing.
So there is no denying when TWO popular boxers fight it sells.

And did Floyd ever do close to 2 million without them?

Why are new users on this board so damn ******???

What does social media have to do with the fact that everybody's biggest seller is when they fight Mayweather?

Oscar, massive PPV star, biggest seller is Mayweather.

Pacquaio, massive PPV star, biggest seller is Mayweather.

All the big stars, their biggest seller is Mayweather.

Mayweather is the common denominator when it comes to the big numbers.

Hence why he's the biggest draw, because he draws the biggest numbers.

Yeah 2013 is new, yes.
And what does a joining date have to do with ones IQ?

Man this for sure is the last time I write in a Mayweather thread.
His fans are as insecure as he is.
They did to be confirmed all the time that is great.

If someone needs to tell you over & over again why he is the best ever, then chances are he is not.

It is easier to sell fights with the internet and with social media.
The undefeated thing, TBE etc. With all the 24/7 programs and stuff. It helps sell fights.
And ofcourse he is the common denominator.
He wins all those fights.
Had he lost the one with De La Hoya then he would not have had those numbers.
He won and this undefeated agenda he had kept selling fights.

4 million is a huge success.

who gives a chit if it doesnt beat pac-may, its the second highest in history and is like double any other mma or boxing fight.

mayweathers guarantee was 100 million, so they are way in the green if they did 4 million.

I understand that.

But I don't see the relevance in regards to the fact that everyone's biggest fight is Mayweather.

The reason why those are their biggest fight is BECAUSE they are fighting Mayweather.

Well right yeah if he lost he probably wouldn't have done those numbers but all you are doing there is giving me a reason why he is the biggest PPV seller.

The simple fact that the 4 biggest selling fights of all time involve the one same person tells you who the biggest draw is. It's common sense.

Oscar was the biggest draw before Mayweather. Oscar used to do 900k buys before that.
Mayweathers did like 300k versus Baldomir.
When Floyd beat Oscar he kindda overtook being the draw.
And the fact that there was no draw in the Heavyweight division.
Based on numbers, yes he IS the biggest draw.
Im not denying numbers. Those are facts.
Im just not buying this PPV King agenda. Thats all.
There is a reason why he did those numbers.
Date, opponent and pormoting the fights.

[elfag]

are there really people arguing over whether or not 4 million buys is a success?

[Pandur]

are there really people arguing over whether or not 4 million buys is a success?

No. Anything over 2.5 would be a succes I would say. Then it would still be the 2nd biggest PPV.

Fights from now on anything over 1 million will be a succes.
