    If it wasn't for the large Hispanic population boxing would be dead in the U.S.


    You don't really believe this do you?

    Check rating and attendance from the Porter-Garcia fight and the competing Mexican card on HBO

      Not embarrassing at all. Americans are going to support who they support regardless of ethnicity. We arent prejudice like the rest of the world.
      It is something to note that you have a huge name from Mexico and a huge name from Boratville and of all the places to fight they choose to fight in the greatest country in the land the United States of America.

          Ok. Do you want me to post all the Barclay's attendance and the stubhub/forum attendance where mostly Mexicans fight? Do you know which cities usually get the highest ratings for boxing? New Orleans is one of the highest. When you breakdown the ratings city by city most of the cities in the top 10 are majority black cities.

            Be real. How many fights are actually being held in New Orleans on a regular basis?

            Freaking Regis Prograis is from there and he only just had his first fight in New Orleans this past July.

            The West Coast has the most thriving boxing scene that is keeping the sport alive in the U.S. In terms of fighters, trainers, and attendance.

            Although some of the big East Coast and Texas cities contribute as well.

              Not many. But ratings count as support, right? The east coast and midwest has a thriving boxing scene to. I live in Cincinnati and there's at least a local card a month here. Pro and amateurs. And I'm not counting the whole state. These are a couple breakdowns by city

              Top Markets household rating/share:

              Cincinnati, 4.1/8
              Oklahoma City, 3.4/6
              New Orleans, 3.2/5
              Tulsa, 3.0/6
              Greenville, 2.9/5
              Albuquerque, 2.8/6
              Baltimore, 2.8/5
              Las Vegas, 2.7/5
              Sacramento, 2.7/6
              San Antonio, 2.7/5.

                Those are ratings for one specific show. Which happened to feature Cincinnati's own Adrian Broner.

                      You are a foreigner if you don't speak the language.
                      You learn the language of any country, you learn the culture.
