If 80's Mike Tyson was fighting right now, would he be more popular than Pac & Floyd?

    ""Do I need to explain about PPV to you?
    18 million watched Nigel Benn vs Chris Eubank
    that is more views then Floyd's entire PPV career
    half of Tyson's early fights was on free network tv
    PPV didn't get big until recently
    Tyson now will do 20 million PPV
    PPV don't mean **** because the numbers are so small compare to what the boxers did back when boxing was on net work tv
    Also like I stated PPV just recently got big""



    Great post by some random... That explains wtf PPV means

    and how the numbers =jack **** in terms of comparing them to the popularity of Ali Tyson etc
