    Marquez is an HOF lock, one of the greatest Mexican fighters of the past 20 years, and still a p4p high flyer, much beloved in his homeland and in the US for his two excellent performances vs the world's premiere fighter.

    Not even a debate.

    JMM was coming off two KO wins against Diaz and Casamayor and was the lightweight champion and P4P #2.

    Margarito was coming off a destruction at the hands of Mosley, who himself was outclassed, a handwrap scandal, and a poor performance against a journeyman.

    Obviously, Marquez was the bigger draw.

    Pac vs Margo sold more because Pac is the biggest draw in the sport right now.

    Margarito was very popular 3-4 years ago... Below JMM as he was a new face... the scandal made him less popular.

    JMM has been in the game for a long time and definitely has a country behind him..


    Pac fans will push MARGARITO for obvious reasons.

    Margarito.... Honestly as great as JMM is, Margarito is always going to bring some sort of excitement weather getting his ass beat or making the fight a war until someone yields..

    MArquez is a bigger draw, but Manny's fight with Margo was promoted better since they kept talking about the hand wrap issue and people gave Margo a shot and they thought PAc was retiring. Floyd didn't do his usual trash talk in the upcoming weeks to his fight

    People gave Margo a shot? did you see the odds for that fight. People gave Marquez a bigger shot against Floyd than Margo against Pac.

    No, YOU want it to be Margarito so YOU can throw YOUR excuse why Pac vs Marg's numbers are better than Floyd vs JMM.

    Yes they boycotted the fight by NOT buying PPV and watching it on STREAMS, Bars, etc. Yes they watched it, but they Boycotted the PPV! They don't want to contribute because they want the numbers to suffer. That what's BOYCOTT means! You dumb.

    You said it well, but Floyd fans are the ones pushing Margarito so they can throw their excuses. YOU JUST ADMITTED it, JMM is more popular and is the BIGGER DRAW. :deal:deal:deal
