Why is Clenelo a bigger draw than Lomachenko. Are boxing fans idiots?

    Nobody gives a *** about Divisions under 147 maybe 140 to be brutally honest so at 135-130 no he will NEVER be a big Draw but he can go down as a All Time Great.

          One word: Mexicans, theres a ton of them in the US and they like their Mexican boxers. Loma is still getting known, but to appeal to the casual he has to fight someone whom the public knows. The fight that could catapult him is a Pacquiao fight.

            Cleanelo is the hottest boxer in the sport, and he's a good boxer. Deal with it. Peasant.

              You underestimate the power and influence of the Mexican and Mexican-American boxing market, young grasshoppa
              These two pretty much stated the reason why Lomachencko is not as big of a draw as Canelo is. Canelo has, or had, strong support among the Mexican American fanbase and there are a lot of Mexicans in the southwestern United States.

              People tend to follow who they can identify with and most white fight fans have moved to MMA.

                Come on man even if Mr. Saulbuterol passed a hair test it doesen’t mean anything. There’s ways to get around that test it doesen’t mean **** since he already previously failed two tests.

                    But if they both had event, Clenelo would draw more and make more money. Even if Clenelo faced a bum and Lomachenko faced Garcia.


                    Are boxing fans idiots?

                    Are they just fanboys and the boxing, the opponent and the size of the task they are facing mean nothing.

                    How else can you explain how Mayweather vs McGreggor drew so much.


                    Is your average boxing fan a fanboy who DKSAB?
                    What a dumb ****en post, lmfao...

                      Mexican casual fans will pay for PPV fights involving a Mexican; some do not watch any boxer who is not Mexican, even for free. Some fans believe Canelo was unjustly treated and will gladly support a cheating *****. Their interest lies not in the sport itself, just in seeing a Mexican athlete.
