    Canelo made 2 million?

    :scaredas:

    I don't think Khan has ever made 2 million and he's arguably the fourth biggest draw in boxing.

    What's personal revenue got to do with who fans wanted to see?

    How many Mexicans watched this fight? the numbers are so distorted due to this undercard, Canelo's ''first big test'' and all the hype etc etc. Cotto May was just a cherry on the top for those fans, take Canelo out, it would have done around 700k.

    1.6 at most....but that fight was good enough to pull in 1.8. I was impressed with Floyd even though he had the most trouble we've seen from Floyd since the DLH fight....only he took more punishment.

    What's ESPN got to do with what Mexicans want to watch? you clearly aren't a marketing strategist or business man, I suspect a manual worker.:patsch

    I don't think it will exceed 2 million, but if it does, it wouldn't be that shocking. You had three legitimate draws on this card bringing in the different demographics along with another known name. Plus you had The Biebs promoting the fight to his 20 million followers.
