What people?
If ya'll got the style people want tosee, it would be reflected in the marketplace.

A mexican isn't the biggest draw in boxing.

I don't see JMM cashing any huge checks.

The biggest name in mexican boxing today ....Canelo...sold only $350,000 ppv buys against another Mexican.

Those are Mayweather /Baldomir numbers.

Still waiting on the numbers from the Lara fight.

350k is a truly spectacular number. De La Hoya only sold 200k his first ppv.
I'm in no way agreeing with Cyclone. But you can't compare PPV numbers from then to now. PPV availability has jumped astronomically.
It's maybe doubled in household numbers since DLHstarted PPVing. But the context of the discussion is just pure numbers. 350k as a debut, especially on Showtime which has 60% of the households that HBO has is a serious number.
