If Mayweather doesn't fight on a Mexican Holiday - how will his PPVs do?

I don't see why it should make a difference unless he were actually fighting an established Mexican attraction, but then he has made a point of fighting on those dates regardless so it could very well. Maidana is Argentinean, do you think that many Mexicans only bought the fight because of the date? I guess the only way to know is to wait and see if he fights at another time, but I have a feeling his PPV numbers will continue to drop either way unless he fights Pacquiao..

When was the last time Floyd didn't fight on Cinco De Mayo or Mexican Independence Day? Ricky Hatton in 2007. It's very important to the buy rate or he wouldn't do it then. Why do you think Canelo wants to take back those dates?
