Who gives a **** how many fans Ricky brought. It made it that much sweeter when those drunk ****s went home after their hero danced with the ring post.:yep At the end of the day PBF is the superior fighter and has the W against both to prove it. What's even more funny is people like you get off on **** like this as if it means something. It's not like you can hang your hat on any PBF losses or him actually been hurt or knocked down in a fight can you? Desperation at its best.
Well it always "takes two to tango" so the best thing to do is compare their PPV SALES records against other fighters. :deal
Yeah PBF might be the superior fighter . . . he knocked Hatton out . . . right? But that is not being discussed here, this thread is about selling tickets . . . so stick to it. :deal
Floyd gives a **** , it's all he cares about , all he talks about. He doesn't take pride on fighting the best or being the best , just making the most money, about him being " the cash cow" and he can't even do that . Just sad.
Don't tell Mayweather that he's not a draw. He'll try and sell you on why he's the man people want to see despite the fact that De La Hoya and Hatton are among the top draws in the sport and were the driving force behind the ticket sales. Sure, Mayweather is the p4p guy and won both of those fights but in terms of ticket sales, he was the supporting character on both shows. People don't walk out early like they did during the Baldomir fight if they came to see you. Floyd just latched onto two real cash cows and spun the numbers to make it look like he's the attraction. Afterall, De La Hoya's never been that popular and those crowds that came to see Hatton in Manchester were figments of our imagination.
The material is old. They can only recycle it so many times. Even Kris Akabussi has stopped laughing at that joke.
Blah, ha, ha, ha, ha, it doesn't matter how "superior" a fighter is if no one wants to watch him fight. Floyd has forgotten that he is supposed to entertain us by boxing, not talking ****. Now go peel yourself off floyds foreskin and take a bath, your stinking up the place with that silly **** !!!
Floyed used to have the same problem Dawson has now. For all the talent in the world he does not have a fan base with any significant size like what Hatton, Pac, Tyson and Hoya had and he still think he is some kind of world star. He has great ability but the fact that casual fans are not particularly excited by his style and only decide to pay PPV when the opponent is large appeal is a stain on his alleged greatness.
fraud piggybacked off the big names of Oscar and Hatton an Gatti. it remains to be seen if fraud can sell a big show on his own. it's highly doubtfulm because duckweather has a very small fanbase, and the majority of intelligent boxing fans fully realize and are repulsed by his business tactics of handpickng safe opponents while shamelessly ducking or going into fake retirement to avoid the most dangerous.
we really dont know if dodgeweather is the superior fighter at 147. we really don't know if he can beat Cotto, Margarito, Mosely or Pacquiao. Phuck what fraud says, he's a renowned liar. what we do know is that he ducked Margarito, Mosley, Cotto and will duck Pacquiao. he probably actually has an inferiority complex under all that false bravado.
You missed the point. Being a superior boxer that can sell tickets is one thing, being a superior boxer that can't fill the seats is kind entirely another. Boxing, like all other sports, is first and foremost entertainment for the fans, and being a superior boxer that can't sell tickets is entirely pointless !!!
