    Can't do that!:nono Again you're going off of speculation and something that convient for you point, and then trying to generalize, and project it to the larger population. If that were the case look at what I wrote to Freddy. we(I) calculated 80 ppl to your 25, and guess what?...Hatton had one fan out of Freddy's 50 ppl yet everyone knew both fighters, but wanted to see Mayweather lose. Only 2 of the 30 ppl at my house even knew who Hatton was, but were all there to see Mayweather Only about 5 watched the 24/7 show! Now none of that is speculation, but fact! Get the point I'm making? I could take that same thing and project the results over a larger population and trump yours, but we are talking small personal demographics, and what would be speculation!!

    BTW,...I didn't speculate anything:nono I put out the other factors leading up to the fight! You tried to base things on 24/7, and the promotion(might as well say GBP) I put it out there that not everyone has access to all of that or are even aware of it, and that Hatton isn't a big draw if even a draw over here w/out his fans flying over! Not many ppl know him. Alot more ppl knew who Mayweather was going in because of his recent media surge, dancing w/the stars, and the recent 24/7!

    Give credit where it's due!!

    Not gonna get into this....but I think it's getting a little old to say PBF has nothing to do with the numbers.

    Good post :good

    Pretty Boy was a draw in this fight, but 24/7 was a huge help in him getting to 850K. But you're right, 24/7 or no 24/7 it doesn't matter. It is what it is and the people bought the fight to see him either win or lose. :deal

    I watched this fight at a sports bar here in Houston and it was packed, you couldn't get a seat. Most of the guys in there were cheering for PBF. Hatton had his fans as well but PBF outnumbered them 3 to 1 easily. So much for him not being a draw BS.

    After those fans booed the National Anthem, I guaruntee 1 million people who were previously hoping Floyd gets floored started cheering for him. It was a great night for Floyd for sure :deal

    You predicted 500-600.

    You were about 250-350k off.

    No need to lie to look cool.
