    Oscar may be bigger in terms of popularity in the world and PPV sales but he was not better than Julio Cesar Chavez.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    I would say Chavez Sr. Over 132k went to see him fight Haugen and that is pretty damn impressive. I don't think DLH, Morales or Barrera could do that.

    In terms of popularity it has to go to Chavez Sr, highest paid well that obviously goes to DLH, Canelo although popular doesn't compare to the level of popularity of either JCC or DLH, nor does he make the money that Oscar would

    My understanding is that Oscar was born, and lived his life, in California. He is not Mexican; he is an American of Mexican descent.
    If you think this difference is irrelevant, then you have never been to the fights at the Olympic Auditorium when a 'Mexican' fought a 'Mexican-American.'

    There is definitely a significant difference. But if were going to use the terms loosely then I nominate PBF as Kenya's biggest star ever.

    Floyd was born in Michigan so he is American. Oscar was born in L.A so they are both American. Floyd's Father was born in Amory Mississippi so he too is American not Kenyan ?

    Bro, I was clearly joking. You know being that black Americans are African Americans so I named a country in Africa. Clearly a joke in reference to Oscar being in the discussion as Mexico's biggest star.
