    1500 is what Floyd pulled at the gate at age 21.

    I reckon Mayweather would sell 40,000 in the UK. Say against Brook who isn't a massive name over here.

    Other than himself, Pacquiao, Cotto, Alvarez and the Klitchkos. Most boxers these days are reltive unknowns.

    If Floyd seats cost 300 bucks then he would sell out 100,000 seat arenas

    Yes Mayweather can draw 40,000. It won't be a problem but he would need his usual free rooms, limo rides, and buffets give away :lol:.

    The crowd was impressive. Are there mitigating factors?

    Were a significant percentage of the tickets given away or severely discounted (considering the quality and type of event)?

    So Canelo drew 40.000 at the age Floyd drew 400... and he'll never be as popular. Sound logic there, buddy. :lol:
