    LOL, **** Yes! Oscar and Hatton were 100 percent the draw in those fights. Oscar can sell out an arena fighting just about anyone, and Hatton had more fans in Vegas then the "hometown" fighter did, and it would have been more if they were allotted more tickets. Mayweather is not a ticket seller, despite his p4p best skills.

    Just a small correction hear, not to be petty, but it was 325k...He did 375K against Zab and 365k against Gatti. For what it's worth, 325k is considered a very weak number. Especially when you consider DLH did 925k against Mayorga, and 350k against freaking Yori Boy Campas.

    My source is ESPN and a thread I found giving the numbers to most of DLH's PPV fights.

    Exactly, it's foolish to say Mayweather had nothing to do with the PPV buys. :deal

    What does this mean? Also, I am not a "hater." I fancy myself to be one of the more unbiased posters around here, read some of my posts to judge for yourself...however, you seem to have me judged already.

    Back to the point, i don't know what you mean by your statement, so I don't know where to begin.

    Because people will pay to see him go down. (Mayweather)
    His "Money" image has garnered negative fan's....
    (Myself I like Boxing in general...but the average will take sides)
    (+ his opponent's are the ones selling the ticket's....)

    He is just the Roddy Piper to the Opponent's Hogan.:good
    (if your young, google that ****)
