Come on man. What argument is that! If you add up both Klitschko brother hits, they JUST beat Haye So Haye's twice as popular as Wlad.............. Truth is, Haye beats Wlad, by a long way, on most things, including the fact that the guy sells about 800k PPV sales, to Wlad's zero
Wlad vs. Haye isn't even close http://www.google.com/trends?q=wladimir+klitschko,+david+haye&ctab=0&geo=all&date=all&sort=0 It's about even in the states, but Haye has a lot more popularity in europe
Saying that Haye vs. Both Klitshcko brothers is a lot closer than you think As in the K brothers have the top searched event. But Haye has numbers 2 and 3 That's both brothers
In other words, not real boxing fans. That's why they had to google Clottey who just had a great fight with Cotto and a win over Judah.
Meh casual fans drive (any) sport "Real" boxing fans are the "I wont pay for this crap card *streams illegally*" :rofl
This is bull****. I may have missed it, but i cant see Gamboa on that list?????? And the suspiscious grouping of 5 ppl at 14,800 with a gap down to a group 4 on 12,100 seems a bit too NOT likely.
You are correct. Haye... who forces his fans to watch him on PPV... sells more ppv's than Wlad... who doesn't fight on PPV. Good point.:nut Haye fan logic at it's best. The great thing about this is. David Haye is actually going to have to get into the ring with Wlad. When that happens... Haye is getting annihilated. At that point all of this bull**** posturing and hype for a guy who hasn't done much in the ring to back it up will be over.
:good Wlad dominates in popularity. Of course Haye is more popular in the UK. Also they are NOT even close to being even in the states. Even by the graph that you showed, Wlad is doubling Haye's popularity in the states. Although neither of them are very popular here. Wlad is MUCH more well known and people who aren't hardcore fans have no idea who Haye is.
It's piggy backing. All of Manny's recent opponents are in the top 20 and Shane and Floyd are higher because of Manny.
