"Floyd Mayweather sells more PPV's because he's American"

My point is this:

- The Oscar vs Floyd fight did huge numbers because Oscar has always been the golden goose, and they marketed that fight amazingly well

- Pacquiao would outsell Floyd a million times over in an Asian nation, far more than the US and the UK

- Obviously Floyd has an advantage in America... he's American. It doesn't even make sense to dispute this. Pac would have the same advantage in his home country as well

- I really don't care too much about this issue, Pac is the p4p#1 and the official Fighter Of The Decade for the 2000s. I care much more about boxing than 'popularity'. I know which I prefer between higher ppv numbers or the superior boxing career. :smoke

 

Why do you "haters" argue with a guy who lives in Floyd's hometown ( Michigan Warrior). I know a female who's a rapper from there that go by the name Sarge the Dame says the exact samething. Floyd said himself it was rough at times and he lived in a house where there were seven people in a two bedroom house.

 

Oscar De La Hoya sold far, far more PPVs than Roy Jones did.

Who had the superior career - Roy or Oscar?

Exactly. That's what matters dumbass.

 

No-one is arguing with him, merely reading what he himself wrote. He said Floyd was lower middle class. That doesn't sound like Dangerous Minds to me, and it certainly doesn't sound like 7 people living in a 2-person house. That's a weird kind of lower middle class. Take it up with MW.

 

lol @ these kids from the suburbs talking about being ghetto

 

American media dominates the planet - they can push competitors more. Most of the highest grossing fights involved American fighters. Lets face it DLH fights earn the big bucks. He's a very successful promoter and businessman, Floyd has achieved a great deal because of his association with DLH.

How many of the high grossing fights involve Asians? There is a bias, perhaps its a language thing. Pacquiao's is a non-native english speaker, so thats a barrier for many people. You go to Asia and its a different story, cultural differences. America is a wealthy country and can promote their fighters, but they don't hear as much about Asian boxing or third world boxing.

Floyd's family connections helped him in his career. Where he lives in Michigan is not one of the worst places in the US. He had a relatively comfortable and trouble free upbringing, i've read his biography its well documented. Pacquiao grew up homeless on the streets of a third world nation, Kassim Ouma was forced to fight as a child soldier in a guerilla army in Uganda. There are bigger hard luck stories in boxing.

 

Is michigan warrior getting Floored? or stunned?

 

Little bit on the slow side arent you son, Americans have way more $$$ and spending power than anyone else, you think you're average Filipino can afford to buy a Manny PPV? atsch

 

I thought boxing was about fights not popularity?

Hell why use the ring's p4p list I judge boxers by who appears higher on forbe's list.

 

No, not remotely.


But I bet this does. :smoke

Your now legendary lack of intelligence is about to be exposed before your very eyes yet again.
