    Ortiz has an edge in popularity and following, and the fight will be taking place on Mexican Independence Day.

    I vote no.


    What's with the poll options? Its either yes or no.

    Definitely not. Victor Ortiz has a more captivating story, a more fan friendly style, more notoriety, a Mexican spin to his fan base, not to mention he is a much better speaker and has a better personality for TV.

    Berto is a less attractive choice and if Berto won that fight Mayweather probably would have fought someone else.

    it does as well....like someone said their records

    plus people have got to start giving Floyd credit for the way he promotes fights man...he does an extraordinary job at it.

    better...LETS NOT FORGET THAT THE CASUAL FAN MAKES UP THE MAJORITY OF THE BUYS...

    THEY WOULD SEE A 28-0 AGAINST A 41-0 RECORD..THEY DONT KNOW THAT BERTO IS NOT AS GOOD AS HIS RECORD SHOWS..

    Most fans forget that its a business too...ORTIZ MAY PUT UP THE BETTER FIGHT AGAINST FLOYD, BUT ANDRE WAS UNDEFEATED AND THE MAJORITY OF FANS BUYING THE FIGHT DON'T KNOW MUCH MORE THAN THAT

    ITS FUNNY HOW YA'LL REGULARS DONT REALIZE THIS AND INSTEAD CHOOSE TO HATE ON BERTO..

    FACE IT FELLAZ...HAD HE WON, WE WOULDA SEEN 2 UNDEFEATED'S GOING AT IT N THIS EXCITEDS THE CASUAL FAN (THE CASUAL FAN MAKES UP MOST PPV BUYS-FACT)

    It would do worse, Berto has no fanbase at all.

    Mosley was a former p4p #1, people still remember Mosley beating De La Hoya which was a huge fight. Mosley has sold PPV before.

    Berto was perceived as the better fighter and would be seen as the bigger threat, which is why I think it would do better.

    Same Undercard? If so, It would do around the same numbers if not by a little less because of a Mex not being on the Main event. Mayweather would probably sport Mexi trunks to win the fans like he previously had done.
