    Yeah I hate to bring it up but baseball playoffs and the really big Notre Dame/USC game was on that night. Keep in mind Mayweather and Pacquiao have withheld their ring walk because of other sporting events going on at the time.

    Let's not pretend that people watching the Notre dame usc game took away buys from GGG Lemieux. As much as you'd like to believe that

    Yeah. I'm right. He is a bonafide boxing star at the cusp of becoming a crossover PPV star. The only step needed is the signature fight to send him over that hump. The same one Floyd had w/ Oscar and Canelo had with Floyd, so on so forth.

    It'd be with the Canelo/Cotto winner or Mayweather. Those are his x-over fights.

    I'm just saying a lot of big sporting events were going on that night and May/Pac have postponed their main events before because of it. It could have, could not have. Doesn't really matter at this point.

    150k buys isn't on the verge of becoming a PPV star, sorry.

    GGG would do well if they offered the PPV in eastern Europe and Russia...

    This idiot has an extremely unhealthy obsession with Mayweather. Let's be honest here.....Mayweather doesn't even know you exist, yet you seem to dedicate all your time to defending him. He was a ****ing boxer that had nothing to do with you. You act like his accomplishments are somehow your accomplishments too :patsch :lol:

    Gatti was much more popular than Lemiuex was. Unfair comparison.

    Again you're comparing 2 Americans fighting on US PPV vs. 2 foreigners on US PPV? Doesn't make any sense does it.

    Why don't you compare GGG PPV numbers to other PPV evens in the US where 2 foreigners were involved? Start with V. Klitschko vs. Danny Williams :deal
