    Mayweather will always rake in more PPV buys. Always have. Always will.

    Depends on undercard but probably Mayweather.

    Partially though because Bradley isnt a draw at all

    Mayweather vs Maidana, look how much people are talking about it already, while nobody even seems to care that much about the Bradley rematch.

    its crazy,
    and its not just esb like i was thinking, every boxing site and every youtube boxing video. it doesnt matter who the video is when you check out the comments you cant go more than 10 posts without mayweather bring brought into it and then its on. not stop crazy stupid bashing matches. no debates just a couple idiots hating as best they can. for weeks.

    i come to accept floyd is the only athlete ever with a bigger name than the sport itself. insane and most if it is clown haters and some paq fankids. i used to think it was just paq fans hatimg to make paq look beter and to make those idiots feel better.

    what is insane and i have recently accepted is floyd, its beyond sickening that floyd hass more haters than the 2nd biggest boxing star. and that my friends is whats called bigger than the sport. took lots of work to get there but that mofo did it

    He has more haters than most fighters do fans. Combine that with the actual support he has, an undefeated record, and a loud mouth that he always backs up. And you have the biggest fighter in the sport ever.

    agreed, and the kids that hate on him like he rwaped their GF are in reality some of his biggest fans. the haters (closet fans) are the ones that literally cant stop talking about him

    Of course there fans. If you truly hate something, you don't even want to be around it, or associated with it. If you REALLY despise something, you get frustrated when someone mentions it.

    I compare his haters to that girl in high school that always talks bad about you, yet is madly in love with you on the low.

    Imagine Helga from hey Arnold, if you ever watched that show.

    I can't say Mayweather is bigger than Ali or Tyson. Even Ray Leonard is a push. However, he is definitely the most relevant fighter of his generation.

    I think he is. Simply because of the generation of social media we're in. That alone has created bigger stars than ever before.

    You aren't probably old enough to remember Ali's time but he was the most well-known person in the world at one point. I don't think Mayweather is even close to that.

    Even now I think Ali is more well known than Floyd.

    Bradley-pac is a more interesting fight but I am having a hard time getting beyond the crap undercards that Arum puts together for these fights. You know GB will have good fights on the undercard.
