    Oh yea? Then why wasn’t Santa Cruz vs Mares 1 & 2 on PPV? Why wasn’t Berchelt vs Vargas 1 & 2 on PPV? Mexican fan base ain’t buying no PPV’s, that’s why Canelo was their only PPV attraction, no other Mexican were consistently on PPV

      Errol Spence did one shoe in Frisco,TX and drew in a sold out crowd of 12k. Not to mention Errol consistently has the better TV ratings than Mikey.
      I'll agree to disagree! We'll see how this PPV does @ Staples! Guererro, Barrios, Lopez vs. Molina Jr., and Benavidez were put on this card for a reason! Just sayin'!

        And what is a "flop" to you for this card?
        Mayweather aside, it’s no secret that Mexican Americans support their own way better than Americans. Americans rather support foreign fighters and sh/t on African American fighters. And now you’re talking about two Americans facing off. One has never headlined a ppv, the other guy had one ppv vs a Mexican-American.

        I’m not quite sure why this is even an argument. I’m baffled actually, that this was made into an argument by you.

          Chavez was on PPV consistently. And what group of fans do you think made oscar delahoya a star? I'm telling you, they'll buy anything, even if it's trash.

            This keeps getting better and better lol.
            I could be wrong, but if Jerry Jones thought Errol was that big of a draw, Spence vs. Porter would be at AT&T Stadium in Arlington!

              Yea, there is a reason why all those Mexicans are on the undercard. Because their fan bases are non existent and cannot headline a PPV

                Jerry Jones and Errol Spence said that it’ll be an annual event, meaning they’re only going to do it once a year. Keep twisting the truth. The last five Pay Per Views included 4 black Americans and only one Mexican

                  I'm baffled how people like you have made Mikey Garcia into this huge superstar. Coming into the fight, NOTHING showed that he was another level than Spence name value wise....NOTHING. But after the fight because the fight did well at the gate and on PPV, he is somehow this HUGE star? Huh?

                  And what kind of support has Mikey been getting that Spence hasn't been getting? He wasn't doing better ratings than Spence nor doing better at the gate than Spence. I'm not saying Spence was much bigger than him heading into the fight...Because he wasn't. They were pretty much on equal footing.

                  So tell me, what would you consider a flop for this fight?

                      Why? You're not putting every fight in the AT&T stadium. Is anyone saying Spence/Porter is a bigger match up than Spence/Garcia?

                      So I mean if Mikey sold 85% of the tickets, then his next fight for sure should be in the AT&T stadium....Instead of putting near 50k in the stands, I'm sure he could do 40k or around that amount....Right?
