MAyweather 4th all time in PPV sales

[Nameless]

Man, you are so bitter recently - The fact that he is now the 4th biggest draw ever is good for boxing right now. I don't see any other stars at the moment, do you?

I was the first one to shake my head when I heard that he weighed in 4lbs more than Marquez but you're actually saying people SHOULDN'T have tuned in and that "it's not a good sign"??

Listen to yourself! A lot of these buyers were probably casual fans so how the hell is it not a good sign that we are bringing more casual fans to the sport of boxing??

More fans to boxing = "not a good sign"?...ok then

Well, Manny Pacquiao brings more audience on the table than Mayweather and he's way more spectacular if it can answer your question.

I cannot see how in any way that answers his question . As long as BOTH Pacquiao & Mayweather bring new fans for boxing it cannot be a bad thing.

I think one mass assumption that people make is that 'casual' fans want to see people getting KO'd which isn't necessarily the case. All but 2 of the 12 people who came to mine last week to watch the fight were the definition of casual fans, some of who had never seen the fight. ALL of them came away excited by it, mainly Mayweather's skill & athletic ability (& with the women, mainly Mayweather).

I am not dissing Mayweather (though my dislike for him is quite notorious, I gotta admit), I was simply answering the part where he says that he doesn't see any other boxing star at the moment dragging such a big crowd. Sure, it is good for boxing, if even the boxer I strongly dislikes can drag new amateurs it is damn good, new blood to share the love of the sport with and new people to disagree and agree with, I just found that he was going a bit far saying that no other stars at the moment can bring such big ppv on the table, that is all. Thus said, sorry if my post was confusing or something, my sole intention was to underline that Floyd wasn't the biggest drag in at the gate at the moment.
