I have to add to your comment about Marquez being a "big league" PPV guy - I have to disagree. While I thought he beat Pacman in 2 of those 3 fights, the ONLY reason he is even mentioned as a PPV person is because he's Mexican. If he were from like, Cleveland and his name was Phil NO WAY would he be a PPV fighter. NO WAY!! He's only mentioned as a PPV because the Mexicans LOVE boxing and they LOVE their countrymen. How else could you or anyone in the world explain why NO TALENT Chavez jr is on PPVs. ONLY because Aram knows that Mexicans will pay to see their guys fight. Thats it.

Hey De la hoya, margarito and plenty others still cater to their niche market- If it's money to be made, Arum and Golden Boy are going to make it-
I'm curious how Berto got a big deal as quick is he did? Haitian support maybe? He was no where near ready or battle tested and it showed when he got bodied by Vic Ortiz-
It seems like neither Peterson brother has much of a personality, or even fan base. They have a sad story being foster kids, but that seems about it-
