    Does that make Pac a bigger PPV draw?

    Both Mexican opponents, similar pre-fight odds. 24/7. etc.

    I hate to admit this but Margo is a bigger draw than Marquez and specially considering the handwraps story and all that **** just made the cheater a bigger draw...

    Just ask the people, casual fans, average joe... who is Antonio Margarito and who is Juan Manuel Marquez and you will see it...

    I have a lot of Mexican buddies and work mates and they all despise Margo for his hand wrap controversy. To them Margo is a disgrace. Besides JMM is more popular to Mexicans rather than Margo. But you might be correct that Mexicans bought the PPV because they know Pac is gonna give him a beating and they wanna make sure they witness it.

    Agreed, and Margarito is more well known (infamous) here in the states.

    I honestly can't tell you who is the bigger draw here in the United States.

    I dont think Pac will ever outsell Mayweather (in a like for like fight).

    Money just generates far more passion whether it be fans that hate him or fans that love him. If Manny could get the fans that hate him to pay to watch as well then manybe he could outsell Money but I just don't see it.

    I think he will have the PPV thing sewn up for some time!

    if 1 guy buys the fight to see you lose, that isn't worth any more than 1 guy buying the fight to see you win.
