Kobes Two Jerseys
8 or 24 best player of the era
being pfp number one isn't synonymous with being widely known.
who are ppvs catered to? the casual fan. Floyd was no superstar after the Diego fight. he was a commodity in the boxing world, but that's it. do you think the casual fan gave two shyts about tonight's forty (Rios-alvarado)? fukk no. the boxing world did. outside of boxing Floyd was unknown just like tonight's classic.. Hip-hop heads weren't even up on him at that point. they were still swinging from Roy's nuts and trying to hype up Judah.
what makes your point pointless is the fact that outside of tyson, de la hoya, pacquiao and mayweather, who are the biggest PPV attractions of the last 20 years?
the casual fan in boxing matters little since a household boxing name is hard to come by in the first place. in the sports world, mayweather was well known going into the olympic trials, the coverage was all over him. theres a household name in boxing once every 10 fukking years.
so Floyd was a high selling ppv superstar before dlh? Foh with that mess. and gtfoh with the casual fan matters little. it's the casual fan that not only drives boxing but all sports. lol mayweather was well known going into the Olympic trials. any more lies you care to share with the group?
floyd was a on-par with his ppv's prior to DLH.
Consider this, he did 350 with gatti, 325 with judah, 350 with baldomir. thats industry standard, guys like morales, barrera, hopkins were all drawing similar numbers in that period. he wasnt a super high seller, but outside of de la hoya, neither was anyone else. go ahead an pull the numbers. pull trinidad/wright. Hopkins/Taylor. Hell, pull up Campas/De La Hoya.
more lies? dudes only notable losses were augie sanchez and martin castillo (twice which still boggles my fukking mind) i think he has 7 losses total id have to google it...in the amatuers. Keep in mind i was actually boxing at this time, him and vargas were the two guys everyone was banking on to bring home the gold.
guys like antonio margarito were doing 16k when floyd was doing fukking 325k in their respective ppvs. i guess since im such a liar though, its all lies.
@lukie would definately confirm what im talking about
400k in ppv. and no, he wasn't a superstar after Corrales. he was relatively unknown.
and none of that had Floyd a superstar after he beat Diego which is what you absurdly claimed. you said it yourself, he was industry standard. superstars are beyond that standard which is why they are superstars. you ethered yourself.
after the diego fight he was a star in the boxing world, after the oscar fight he became a household name
he wasnt a superstar after Diego. period.a superstar in the boxing world..i guess im wrong huh?
I asked you to NAME HOUSEHOLD NAMES in the last 20 years
TYSON
PACQUIAO
MAYWEATHER
DE LA HOYA
Thats it. trinidad=superstar roy jones jr =superstar etc
but these guys constantly drew or draw in the million ppv range very few people do this.
i feel like you arent listening to me so ill stop. mayweather was a nobody before de la hoya..right
which is why his fight with mayweather outdrew the following people
DLH VS Trinidad
DLH VS Vargas
DLH VS Hopkins
DLH VS Chavez
im sure de la hoya accounted for 2million ppvs, a range HE NEVER hit with anyone else.
how da hell was floyd unknown
his ppv with de la hoya had a alltime record 2.5 mil buys
your tellin me the casual fan tuned in and broke all time boxing records to watch de la hoya fight a unknown?
obviously oscar completed the process of him being a main attraction
but he was definitely on da way there and for damn sure wasnt unknown
but either da casual boxing fan, or da hardcore
also, him whopping gatti got him ALOT of new fans/haters
floyd came up with tmt on his own. for his group of friends. he was reppin "TMT" long before it ever became a promotional company. I don't think 50 being out of the picture would change that.Why is PBF wearing a TMT hat at the Lakers game if they beefin?

But it's 50's promotional company, so with the supposed fall out why promote another promoter?
