    Headvetkin isn't a star. He's a bigheaded 38 year old Meldonium and Ostarine drug cheat.

    Nobody is pulling these numbers by themselves.

    Kovalev is a ***** for his constant whining blaming his trainer for losing, etc. Way to promote the rematch acting like a baby. Doesn't seem like he believes he can win a rematch or he'd be talking about what he'd do.

    Of course it means something. It doesn't help that he's a very boring fighter and a very boring character, sure.

    Let me rephrase, it doesn't mean much. Want proof? Look at Crawford and Ward's PPV numbers against respectable opponents, poor. It's about the match-up. I'm American, and I can tell you, Americans aren't pulling out their wallets because it's an american fighter. Pacquiao was a huge draw and he barely spoke English.

    There's more evidence to suggest that being American has little to no effect of one's drawing power in America. In fact, being a "handsome" Mexican probably means more. All the PPV stars were good looking by standards.

    Kovalev did marginally better numbers with a way more known opponent than Ward that tells you if Ward had a more known opponent it would have most likely surpassed Kovalevs numbers.

    Steph Curry is arguably the most dangerous shooter in the NBA, if you don't know who is your in the minority lool.

    Lool why your talking about Povetkin and comparing him to Ward is bizarre. Povetkin is no star in Russia, I see those little areanas which aren't even full, he's just armed with an extremely rich promoter who will pay out the ass to give Povetkin a home advantage even to the point of taking a loss.
