    Canelo has a big fanbase. That has never been in doubt by anyone.


    But you cant say Canelo has a good resume, because he has one of the worst in boxing for a big fighter


    Josesito Lopez an average career LWW

    Shane Mosley who had not won since 2009

    Kermit Cintron, a career WW, who had lost 2 of his last 3 going into the fight

    Alfonso Gomez another career WW cab driver

    Ryan Rhodes a 35 year old cab driver

    Matthew Hatton FFS

    Lovemore Ndou a 39 year old career LWW

    Carlos Baldomir a semi retired 39 year old who had lost 3 of his last 5 going into the fight

    You just do not get what I am saying, Canelos Resume is equally dog **** as is Guerreros.

    So why isnt Floyd if anything fighting Canelo instead based on the challenge of fighting a bigger fighter rather than a small guy with no power along with a fighter who is a draw that will make him more money?

    it makes more sense all the way around to fight Canelo than it does Guerrero.

    Both Canelo and Guerreros resume has NOTHING on it that jumps out.... the difference is one guy is smaller and cant punch his way through a wet paper bag and is not a draw, the other is younger bigger and a draw it makes more sense.

    But Floyds health come first I hear ya....:thumbsup

    Since when did *******s become obsessed with sales and numbers?


    I though that was strictly a ***** faux pas?

    Pretty impressive.

    Not surprising though given Canelo's popularity, but also the work those guys have been doing to publicize the fight. They've been touring around everywhere, showing up at other sporting events etc. Have to hand it to them, they're earning the money they're gonna make.

    :lol:

    Numbers are cool man, as long as you're talking boxing for a majority of the time. I think that has to do with me being into statistical **** from other sports though.

    Canelo isn't ****in with this:

    Opponent - Buys - PPV - Gate

    De La Hoya: 2,450,000 buys - $136,853,700 - $18,419,200
    Hatton: 920,000 buys - $47,000,000 - $10,393,950
    Marquez: 1,100,000 buys - $55,600,000 - $6,865,250
    Mosley: 1,400,000 buys - $78,330,000 - $11,032,100
    Ortiz: 1,250,000 buys - $78,440,000 - $9,000,000
    Cotto: 1,500,000 buys - $94,000,000 - $12,000,150


    He may lose before he even headlines a PPV.

    Those numbers are ridiculous. Canelo/Ortiz would've done like 150K buys.

    :yep

    His average buy rate (even including Gatti/Judah/Baldomir) is on par with Tyson's.
