    DLH seems to have been the most event seller in boxing after Mike Tyson. Will PBf ever sell as DLH did ?

    can someone tell me Oscar's career totals in terms of PPV?

    and Floyd's to date?

    also quick question how many PPV did Hatton vs Maywether sell? 1.4 million UK and US combined?

    Floyd boasts about setting record numbers etc but it was more to do with his opponent than him. He just happened to fight two hugely popular fighters back to back.

    However, now they have given him leg-up so to speak so he may produce large numbers off his own back next time.

    Good data but no other boxer would generate $35.0 million fighting Javier Castillejo and Felix Sturm. The fight with Sturm was only
    a preparation for a fight with Hopkins and it is amazing that it generated $19.0 million

    I see your sarcasm but the funny thing is he did go after both fighters (yeah Cotto was "green" I know).

    No.

    PBF is one of the bigger PPV sellers in the sport, but won't reach DLH level.
