I wasn't upset at all, it just doesn't work as a ratio for judging these things. You can make the argument that the Camacho fight may have gone up 100,000-200,000 based on a marginally widerspread availability of PPV technology (although this is pre-1998, they rose through to 2001, at which point PPV availability in the US & Britain was pretty constant through till 2007, at which point it started to drop). The Castilleijo fight doesn't have that argument.

Pac has done well in terms of PPV buys considering he is non-American, Floyd should do better and is not the star that he claims he should be. Pac is bigger with all things considered.
