    What part of "They dont give a **** about both" didnt you understand?

    In the US Floyd is the bigger draw in Europe both fighters are irrelevant and thats a fact, If you travel to Europe you will see what i'm talking about.

    Well the whole argument really is who's the bigger draw, but some people have interpreted that into who's more popular

    I lived in Denmark for 6 years and their sports channel TV2 shows boxing involving americans like Floyd, Taylor, Hopkins but never ever shown a single fight of Manny Pacquiao, not even during Pac's rise to stardom when he beat DLH, Hatton and Cotto. I don't know why. It is not like Danes watch boxing. Heck every single one of the Danes I knew never heard Floyd Mayweather and many of them thought Roy Jones is still undefeated :lol:

    So I think overall Floyd get slightly higher PPV over Pac because he has that inherent popularity and exposure advantage that goes by being an american alone (and a black one at that).

    You got proven wrong by true blue euros. The only thing irrelevant is your opinion. You have no knowledge of europe like these euros do.

    Overall Floyd has more. Thats all you need to know and also Bob Arum lies about what Manny has sold and earned so it still wont help anyones case.

    :lol::lol:

    I'm from Europe and i have traveled all over the continent baring a few places and when i talk about boxing with someone what usually happens is they either dont know nothing about it or they only know some fighters from their own country outside of that the only name that most of them know is Mike Tyson and its mostly cause of the all biting incident with Holyfield.

    Stop being so ignorant. The UK actually put up their fights with Hatton up for PPV. People actually do care out there. Prizefighting started over in the UK. Think about what you're saying.
