Why is he proclaiming himself the cash cow ? It's bull****. His first ppv fight was in his 34th fight against Gatti where gatti was the bigger draw at the the time. He has only had 5PPV FIGHTS !!! in 2 of his ppv fights the ones against gatti and de la hoya he wasnt the big draw de la hoya and gatti were since they were HBO's consistent cash cows. the baldomir fight didnt do well. and the judah and hatton fights were the only fights where he was the big draw that made big ppv numbers. Remember he's had fights as recent as 3 years ago that werent ppv (sharmba mitchell fight) although that wasnt a big fight if he was the true cash king and top boxer then it would be ppv. Remember true cash kings like De La Hoya and Tyson could fight complete stiffs like yory boy campas for de la hoya or kevin mcbride, clifford ettietene for tyson and they would not only be ppv but would also do HUGE numbers. Mayweather is a FRAUD !
He's nothing but a DelaHoya wanna be!!!! He'll never even amount to being the size of one of Oscar's balls.
While it's true that Mayweather is off-base with his claims of being the biggest draw and he's far from DLH/Tyson level, your examples are poor. De La Hoya-Campas did 350,000 which was around the same as Mayweather-Gatti, a little more than Mayweather-Baldomir, and less than Mayweather-Judah. Tyson's fight with McBride didn't do good PPV numbers. Neither did the Williams fight. At the very end of his career, Tyson wasn't doing good PPV numbers.
Campas's official contract was actually $100,000. He also got paid from the Mexican TV rights though. Don't know the details of that amount.
i going to agreed partialy hes not the bigest draw but the fact he is on the mix makes the prefigth more interesting whit all the atention he creats
