MGM Grand, Las Vegas, Nevada - BoxingScene.com caught up with Top Rank's CEO Bob Arum to get his thoughts on Saturday's mega-trilogy between Manny Pacquiao and Juan Manuel Marquez. The Hall of Fame promoter has high expectations for the third installment of the Pacquiao-Marquez trilogy.

"We are hoping for 1.5 million (pay-per-view) buys. That is the number we are looking at. That would be Pacquiao's biggest pay-per-view ever," stated Arum to BoxingScene.com

Floyd Mayweather's team recently put out a press release stating that his September fight against Victor Ortiz generated 1.25 million buys. Arum said that he doesn't pay attention to what Mayweather's fights generate.

"What he (Mayweather) does doesn't concern me at all. It has no bearing on what we are doing," concluded Arum.
