GSP was a massive draw also, and will do 1-million PPV buys when he returns.

>>2786430
this
>>2786630
Nah CM Punk couldn't draw a pedo to a preschool after his first fight. Everyone wanted to know how he'd do and they found out he's shit and are now uninterested
Don't forget earlier we had GSP and BJ Penn as well. Mighty Mouse is at the moment more dominant in his division than any other fighter as well making him up there draw wise as well and he's Mysterio sized. Anderson Silvia's 6'2, but his overall size is still like that of a cruiser weight on the lighter end. Outside of Randy Couture and Lesnar, nobody else in MMA came close to the drawing power of the lighter weight people. For way more than a decade now, heavyweight boxing has been considered a joke compared to the lighter weight divisions.
In this day and age, everyone knows that heavyweight and big guys means that outside a hard hitting moment in a fight that they are just not as exciting to watch as the smaller guys are. This translates to boxing, mma, and pro wrestling. It's not hard to notice that the older bigger guys in pro wrestling were nowhere near the athletes we have today. Or that the Klitschko brothers are inferior to their lower weight division boxing peers yet dominated for so long due to how much of a joke that division. Or that MMA's heavyweight division for the longest time and even today has fatasses like Roy Nelson, Tank Abbott, or Mark Hunt just because they could take a beating and hit hard not because they were actually skilled. Even Lesnar initially lost his heavyweight title because, like in every one of these mediums, dude gassed out so fast into his fight with Velasquez.

Most of them are literally whos.

>Nate Diaz
>>2786429
Brock and gsp on a card couldnt outsell conor and nate with 2 weeks of build
>Darren Rovell on the Ryen Rusillo show said that if the fight generates $370 million, that Mayweather’s take would be $220, McGregor would get $110 and the UFC would get between $25 million and $40 million. He claimed UFC has done zilch business this year and is in a world of hurt.
Floyd and Conor are bigger than Wrestling
>>2786397
>Mayweather
>Draw
Nobody paid a single fucking dime to watch Mayweather. They paid to watch Pacquiao beat the shit out of Mayweather.
Nobody watched Mayweather vs Berto.
>>2790384
Sure, the 2nd maidana fight, the canelo fight, the Oscar fight didn't do business at all. Moron.
>>2790384
Mayweather vs De La Hoya- 2.45 mil buys
Pacquiao vs De La Hoya- 1.2 mil buys
Mayweather vs Cotto- 1.5 mil buys
Pacquiao vs Cotto- 1.25 mil buys
Mayweather vs Mosley- 1.4 mil buys
Pacquiao vs Mosley- 1.34 mil buys
Mayweather vs Berto did 400k, but that fight was like Austin vs Dean Malenko. Pacquiao's recent atrocity did 300k.
>>2786426
Fuck off Nash
>>2790384
If nobody pays to watch Floyd how the fuck does he have like the 4 biggest PPV shows of all time?
>>2786397
Boxing is about fist speed and dodging punches.
Wrestling is about grabbing a hold of someone and tossing them to the ground hard.
Big men do the latter better.
>>2786397
Boxing and wrestling are two different things.
>>2786397
>Canelo
I like him but he's not really a draw compared to the ones you mentioned.
