Floyd is on TV, talk shows, magazine and is everywhere
and it been this way for a long time now
lmao
also media isn't the same in the fukking 80 and 90s as it is now
you are stricken by nostalgia
and despite all that you pointed out, Floyd topples Mikes biggest PPVS in era where boxing was not mainstream
I'm not stricken by nostalgia, I just don't agree with your reasoning. Floyd isn't on TV, what TV is he on? Doing what? What magazines is he in? He's a Instagram champ, he shows his workouts, cars, basketball shots and chicks giving him massages. Yep the media isn't the same and Mike still was bigger, what does that tell you? First of all, Floyd is socially awkward and isn't a people person, he isn't marketable hence him not having endorsements, no one likes Floyd, he's known by most casuals (people who creates who's popular) for woman beating, showing off his riches, and being "scared" to fight Manny, oh and for never losing a match. He's known for his out of the ring bouts ( Rick Ross, WOMEN, 50 Cen5 and T.I.) than his inside of the ring bouts. Your ass didn't live in the Tyson era, liar.
Once again, PPV doesn't make one more popular than the other, you're thinking boxing, I'm showing you outside of boxing Aka life.
Mayweather-Pacquiao PPV Prices, Fee Split Resolved

According to the Wall Street Journal, a tentative agreement has been reached between HBO/Showtime and the pay-per-view distributers - with respect to the May 2nd mega-fight between welterweight champions Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Manny Pacquiao.
HBO (representing Pacquiao) and Showtime (representing Mayweather) are coming together to stage the highly anticipated pay-per-view event.
Last week, Dow Jones Business News reported that HBO/Showtime requested a 70-30 split from the pay-television distributors. The paper says typically the split for a pay-per-view event between distributors and programmers is around 50-50.
The HBO/Showtime offer of 70-30 was quickly rejected by providers. During that time period, there was little movement from either side.
"Everybody at some point will hopefully be rational and we'll be able to put our heads together and come up with a good solution. We're not there yet," it was said last week by Michael Berman, executive vice president and general counsel of iN Demand, which negotiates on behalf of big cable operators including Comcast Corp. and Time Warner Cable Inc.
A little over a month before the fight, the two sides have come together. HBO/Showtime have reached an agreement with iN Demand - which negotiates on behalf of Comcast Corp., Time Warner Cable Inc. and other large cable companies, and with DirecTV, the nation’s largest satellite TV operator with more than 20 million subscribers.
The WSJ reports that Mayweather-Pacquiao will cost $99 for a high-definition feed and $89 for standard definition, according to sources with knowledge of the agreement.
The pay-per-view revenue split appears to be falling in the range of 60-40, with HBO/Showtime gaining the larger share.
The other distributors that HBO/Showtime has yet to reach agreements with are Dish Network and Vubiquity, which handles negotiations for AT&T Inc. and other distributors.

Show some tangible proof, or representation of this
Floyd is bigger than boxing and has been for some time, what planet are you on
Mike Tyson is more known for being in the hang over to the younger generation than a boxer
you nikkaz are living in the past because your flabby ass played punch out when you was a kid
Evander Holyfield had a video game too shyt
He just said that Floyd is on TV, but I don't see him on there because I'm older and I don't have to watch TV anymore, then goes on to say that TV isn't relevant anymore and then goes on to say that Floyd achieved all of his PPV numbers without TV. Oh snap......this niqqa is wild.
Okay @Master Teacher you taught me today breh.
Bruh, it's not gonna be as fun for you once the Manny fights are over and done with. Floyd ain't gonna see no paycheck the size of that anytime soon, if ever again. So going from 9 figures back to 8 figures, would that be an L? PPV numbers will dip too. Another L? I mean, its all about numbers or something like that amiright?
I'm sure its all the same to you, numbers are numbers but I'll just say
People buying PPV to watch you kick azz >>>>>>>>> People buying PPV to watch you get your azz beat
Now Mayweather has mastered the art of the latter. Don't mistaken that for "popularity" though, lol.
