What's MAYWEATHER going to say when he fails to SELL OUT the ARENA

15K that Mayweather/Marquez sells out and outbuys Pac-Hatton Sig it ... R u joking? No way it sells out the arena and by any chance it does its because of the mexicans And I say it doess 400k buys .. Ez bet

HUH?? What arena in Vegas holds over 18K?? Thomas & Mack...

like someone else said, who cares? If you hate the guy so much, don't buy his PPV. Don't worry, thousands of other people will. You won't be missed.

HUH?? What arena in Vegas holds over 18K?? It's true...the Thomas and Mack Center is bigger than the MGM or Mandalay Bay. Their website says that their capacity for ring events is 19,522. It's just that it's not part of a casino that more big fights aren't held there I guess.

I was being serious.You obviously have never been to an NCAA conference game. Guess you forogt to it up your "inside" information as the ring configuration holds up to 19k.

if the mexican came for margarito they are coming for jmm Yeah I've got a Mexican homeboy from Mexico and he says that he's getting the fight and that JMM has a real chance to beat Mayweather. He's not a huge boxing fan but if a fighter from Mexico is fighting on PPV he usaully gets it.

Thomas & Mack Center holds up to 40k.

This is just one of those threads that just HAVE to be bumped in the near future, the very near future.

I want to know what is this guy standards for a successful fight since he thinks 10,000+ isnt successful Thus, none of these fights were draws since they didnt break 10,000+ or 11,000+ FELIX TRINIDAD vs. OSCAR DE LA HOYA Mandalay Bay, Top Rank, Don King, PPV OSCAR DE LA HOYA vs. FERNANDO VARGAS Mandalay Bay, Top Rank, Main Events, PPV LENNOX LEWIS vs. HASIM RAHMAN Mandalay Bay, Don King, Main Events, Lion, PPV FELIX TRINIDAD vs. FERNANDO VARGAS Mandalay Bay, Don King, Main Events, PPV FELIX TRINIDAD vs. DAVID REID Caesars Palace, Don King, America Presents, PPV LENNOX LEWIS vs. DAVID TUA Mandalay Bay, Main Events, America Presents, Panix, PPV MIKE TYSON vs. FRANCOIS BOTHA MGM, America Presents, PPV EVANDER HOLYFIELD vs. JAMES DOUGLAS Mirage, Mirage, PPV EVANDER HOLYFIELD vs. RIDDICK BOWE II Caesars Palace, Spencer Promotions, Main Events, PPV Because None of these Broke 10,000+ and 11,000+ in attendance... So what do you think is the amount of people who have to attend for you to consider it an successful fight? obviously the thread starter is a mayweather hater...their is no need to put this much effort into making him look foolish for downplaying 10,000+ paid attendance.

The fight will sell out. Not as quickly as others but it will. I don't beleive it will do the PPV numbers that Pac-Hatton does but it will outdo Pac-Marquez and therefore giving Floyd PPV edge versus three common opponents, although still not sure what official numbers are for Pac-Hatton. Thats why he can demand more and nothing is wrong with that. Did Floyd, Manny, Shane, or Bernard receive more money against Oscar because they were considered better? No, because thats not the way it works, especially here when Floyd in my opinion is still the better fighter. Everyone is saying Manny is the bigger draw but wheres the proof? Floyd has done bigger numbers. you can't really compare those fights. pac/dlh and pac/hatton were made in a recession while floyd/dlh and floyd/hatton weren't made in a recession. also pac/jmm was at 130 where jmm was not as big as he is now.

15K that Mayweather/Marquez sells out and outbuys Pac-Hatton ROFL. Outbuys Pac-Hatton? It won't even go close you fool.

Anything over 9,000+ is a success base on the history of PAID ATTENDANCE of Fights Hosted in the State of Nevada http://boxing.nv.gov/New_Gates.htm

You conveniently forgot to mention the Pacquiao/Morales III which did 18,276, according to HBO --> http://www.hbo.com/boxing/events/2007/1006_pacquiao_barerra/news/announcement.html According to the state and government of Neveda and their Business and Industry Records. HBO is lying. http://boxing.nv.gov/New_Gates.htm

Based on how much shit Floyd and his girlfriends talk on this forum have talked, I expect this PPV to do no less than 900K. Hater, you're just undermining the mega star billionaire he really is. I expect at least 1.5 million PPV buys, and thats pre order. Fight night, expect another mil. Easy work.

actually thats a pretty huge misconception. Yes while JMM isn't the draw Barrera and Morales were in their heyday his recent fights with Pacquiao and Diaz have made him more acceptable to the Mexican fanbase also while the crowd was a definite Diaz crowd there was a huge roar of approval for JMM as well. he is becoming a draw and one that Mexican fans are starting to want to see they only like him when he's fighting pac. margo sold out the staples center easy... I don't ever see jmm getting that kinda reception, which boggles my mind. jmm is clearly the better fighter.

if the mexican came for margarito they are coming for jmm i dunno, for some reason they don't like jmm unless he's fighting pac

You mean PBF calling twice on SSM, and SSM ducking PBF?? get your facts right And Shane Mosley was at 147 when Mayweather called him out?...?

the mexicans might not come out because jmm is perceived as a huge underdog and a tune up. also jmm had to fight diaz in houston; he doesn't get that much love from mexicans... they prefered margarito over jmm before mosley/margo. actually thats a pretty huge misconception.
