2724888, Talking about his PPV profile.

Perhaps I should've said he raised his profile .
Once he broke the PPV record with De La Hoya (25M) after a couple of moderately successful PPV's with non-Mexican fighters (under 400k), he knew the formula.
I mean, consider that Shane Mosley is a first ballot hall of famer. Floyd's PPV with him only slightly outsold the one with Victor Ortiz lol (1.4M and 1.2M). That says alot imo. I can totally see Floyd telling Tank "Why waste your time with... black fighters... or Ukranian fighters... who pose a threat... when you can fight... Mexican fighters... from lower weight classes... and make the same money?" lol.

I agree with this completely. I think people should think more about why Floyd never became undisputed in any weight class.
