You do realize the respective cards they've been on this year right?
Silva's numbers are high because he fought alongside with Sonnen, Forrest Griffin, Tito, Cung Le, Nogeuira, Fitch, Davis. Silva's cards did 925,000 for 148 and 153 did 410,000
Jones cards had Rashad, Belfort, the flyweight title fight, Bisping, Stann. Jones cards sold 700,000 for ufc 145 and 450,000 for UFC 152
GSP had Condit, Hendricks and Kampmann and sold 700,000 buys
Sounds like GSP's doing alright

UFC 154 did an estimated 680-700k PPV buys.
UFC 145, where both headliners were black did pretty much the same, so I'm gonna call bullshit on the whole "He sells because he's white" point.
The fact that he's good looking and speaks English well are way more important. Of course, the #1 reason is that he's one of the greatest fighters on the planet.

Rashad is the only other draw besides Jones on his line. Nobody gave a rat's ass about the flyweight title fight.

So then you're saying that GSP did the same numbers by himself that Jones and Rashad did combined. Sounds like he's still the bigger draw

You don't understand, according to some being white means that you are immune to hunger, suffering and live a constant life of leisure!
On topic, he is from Canada should be number 1.
