    Your comeback trail excuse holds no water being that Manny sold twice as much against Bradley the fight before

    How much more popular is Berto than Algieri in your mind?

    Yeah, a 50 year old who puts on the most boring fights going.

    Martinez? I stated Canelo.

    Come off-it, much more than 3 people have done those numbers you silly child.

    MY POINT is that for a man to do NEARLY FIVE MILLION BUYS in his last fight and then do TEN TIMES WORSE is an absolute joke, is it not?

    He's won titles in the WW division (most popular division in the sport), had FOTY candidates with Ortiz, was an exciting fighter.

    Who was Chris, again?

    I'm not an idiot that relies on statistics.

    Ricky was arguably top 3 in terms of popularity. He filled arenas on his own.

    Canelo had a huge following.

    If you can't recall how popular Oscar was - and I doubt you can because you are so young - he was even a POP STAR at one time!

    Those guys were huge. You cannot deny this.

    Anyone with half a brain knew the Pacquiao fight would outsell any other fight exponentially. You using that fight, which is an outlier to the highest degree, makes you look silly.

    It's the theme of the forum...

    Just goes to show, that without a latino, Floyd is doing 2005 numbers. Shockingly poor for someone who just did nigh-on FIVE MILLION buys. With that many buys you'd think people wouldn't be able to get enough of him! Looks like I'm wrong...

    So what's your point exactly? Initially I said Floyd-Berto did poorly because it's a poor match up. Do you disagree?

    What's your angle?

    Ok. Let's compare it to JMM, Mosely, Canelo, Cotto, Oscar, Hatton then?

    Even by Floyd's standards WIHTHOUT those Manny numbers, it's a terrible number, no?

    No one draws great numbers with a **** matchup. OMG Canelo draws 40k yet managed to bring no more than 300k being generous because he fought a **** opponent. He hasn't been on PPV since but against Cotto he will because it's a GOOD MATCHUP...is this starting to make sense now???

    He did over 1 mil against Mosley. Pacquiao fought a Latino and only did 300k. Do you stand by your opinion still?
