    Errol Spence has now sold more tickets than Mikey Garcia in Texas AND California!

    Errol Spence’s fight against a no-name like Carlos Ocampo drew in a sold out crowd of 15,000 in Texas according to Keith Idec of boxingscene
    By Keith Idec - Errol Spence Jr.’s fight Saturday night is more about where than who. The unbeaten IBF welterweight champion is such a huge favorite against unk


    Mikey Garcia has had about three fights in Texas, and none of them drew a crowd of 15k. Here’s a list of all three of them:

    1. Garcia vs Lopez. Dallas, TX. 5,605 fans


    2. Garcia vs Martinez. Corpus-Cristi, TX. 5,124 fans
    Mikey Garcia stopped defending champion Rocky Martinez 56 seconds into the eighth round Saturday night to take the WBO junior lightweight title.


    3. Garcia vs Lipinets. San Antonio. TX. 7,800 fans http://fightnights.com/2018/05/18/40...-cow-in-boxing

    Now onto California. Errol Spence had a crowd of 16k in attendance for his fight against Shawn Porter at the Staples Center in LA.
    By Keith Idec - LOS ANGELES – Shawn Porter proved Saturday night that the odds-makers and countless others didn’t know what was about to happen. Dismissed by ma


    Mikey Garcia fought in the same venue against Robert Easter and only 12k people showed up. According to sources, half of the people there got FREE tickets.
    By Keith Idec - LOS ANGELES – Robert Easter Jr. deemed Mikey Garcia overrated before their fight Saturday night. The former IBF lightweight champion might feel


    So the narrative that Mikey sold the PPV against Errol because of “the mexican fans” has officially crumbled. Errol Spence is a draw, and a bigger draw than Mikey.

        Well, let's wait to see just how many tickets were sold. I'm also interested in seeing if the gate was more than 1.5-2M or not.

          But why did Floyd TBE decide to make it a point to fight on Cinco de Mayo starting from the Cotto fight, who is not even Mexican?

          Why not on MLK day or something?

            First of all, Floyd Mayweather rarely ever fought on mexican holidays. He fought on cinco de Mayo twice, once against Oscar De La Hoya because Oscar was the A-Side and he did it once voluntarily against Miguel Cotto. After that we never saw Mayweather fight on May 5th nor September 15th. Floyd Mayweather’s most successful PPV came against Conor McGregor in August.

            Second, bringing up Floyd is counter intuitive to your point. Mayweather was the most popular boxer from 2007-2017, no mexican has reached his level of global popularity ever. This in fact shows that the mexican fan base is insignificant.

            Lastly, what does that have anything to do with the topic at hand? My point is that Errol Spence is a bigger draw than Mikey Garcia despite his lack of Mexican fans, we’ve seen Spence outsell Garcia in both TEXAS and California, both states with huge meixcan populations. It seems that the narrative that Mikey sold the PPV has no real data backing it up.

                Floyd vs Oscar on Cinco De Mayo weekend.

                Floyd vs JMM on Mexican Independence weekend.

                Floyd vs Mosley on Cinco De Mayo.

                Floyd vs Victor Ortiz on Mexican Independence weekend.

                Floyd vs Cotto on Cinco De Mayo

                Floyd vs Guerrero on Cinco de Mayo

                Floyd vs Canelo on Mexican Independence weekend

                Floyd vs Maidana on Cinco de Mayo

                Floyd vs Maidana 2 on Mexican Independence weekend.

                Floyd vs Pacquiao on Cinco De Mayo

                Floyd vs Berto on Mexican Independence weekend.


                11 out of 16 PPVs that Floyd has had was on a Mexican holiday weekend. But of course Floyd will never suck up to them Mexicans right?
