    1. Bigger ethnic following (Irish vs Kazakhstan, not fair)
    2. Bigger fight. 1 vs 2 in Division with a year of hype. Golovkin vs Canelo would be huge.
    3. Much stronger card over all.
    4. Stop making re****ed 'comparisons'.

    I dont understand what point your trying to put across here. Are you saying GGG needs to up his game and start generating better PPV,s before ppl can claim other fighters are ducking him? And to show your point you compare him to somebody from a completely different sport?

    McGregor is on the verge of becoming a superstar, hes already the biggest draw in MMA... He talks a good game so the casuals love him. This is a forum for hardcore fans, who the **** cares about numbers?

    looking in from the outside thats my take.
    it must be a stigma.
    john kerry claimed to be irish until he found out in the last election cycle his grandparents where ? was it jewish i forget.

    there must be 100 million english decendents given the ammount of time /whites in america and the fact of the surnames being english and place names all from england.

    i think many jews and germans changed there names to fit in.
    thats what happened to immigrants to the uk 1850 /1900

    What the fluck is this? BTW Cotto vs Canelo did not even reach a million buy, so what does that say about McGregor ?

    Nevermind the fact that UFC is a lot more popular than boxing in NA, that probably has absolutely nothing to do with it right ?

    HBO has served Golovkin up on a platter without having to do anything noteworthy. Look at all the past Superstars and what they had to do to be on PPV and who they had to fight.

    Look up: Mike Tyson, Oscar De La Hoya, Manny Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather.

    Now compare their opponents for PPV's to David ****ing Lemuiex.:verysad

    i lived in rural ireland and then east london and i till this day never met an american in the flesh .

    irish towns and villages usually have very long names or gaelic names that are ok for irish and nigerians :D but maybe it would cause confusion in america.

    I think its weird but from the other angle.

    Why bother calling yourself Irish/Italian/Polish or whatever, when you were born and reared in another country.

    But nationalism and logic don't really tend to get along anyway

    Joshua did more buys than Mayweather in a market to a 5th of the people for a British title fight, compared to Mayweather world title fights in their last fight.

    Discuss.
