Hatton Sell out
De La Hoya Sell out
15,170 vs Zab Judah
9,427 vs Carlos Baldomir
12,675 vs Arturo Gatti sell out
7,106 vs Sharmba Mitchell
JMM is not a big draw that is why he had to fight Diaz in Houston. Mayweather doesn't have the backing of a nation like Pacman, Cotto, Margarito, Hatton, Calzaghe, De La Hoya but he is a huge draw considiring his boxing style and being a fighter from the U.S.
LMAO
Im surprised he even showed up after gettig KTFO
hahaha
he is bad ass but still
its better not to show face
man you have been to some pretty sweet fights
Hell yeah my man. I went to Corrales vs Castillo 2. Could have went to the first one. I didn't think is was going to be good at all. But that was a big regret of mines
That's true, but the strip is like 5 minutes away. But when I was at the MGM at the Winky vs Tito fight. I wasn't there, but it was packed in the casino. My favorite night other than my wedding and daughter being born was the Jones vs Tarver 2 afterparty in the Mandlay Bay. The afterparty was in the ballroom there. It was packed with females, Celebs, athletes, singers, and rappers. Everyone was chillin and had a good time. Don King gave Tarver in the middle of the lobby $100,000 while on the mic talking about George Bush, lol. Jones came in the building I told him he was still the greatest. But he kept on walking mad doging folks.
So yeah I feel you about fights at the casino

Last fight I missed/went to was the Hatton vs Pacquiao fight. Thank god I was running late. The exit at the MGM for most everybody is only 1 way. I seen the same but had a chance to say whats up to Gamboa. The Pac fans where the quiet ones even thought there boy won.
Maybe but he is not a top 15 draw in the game.
Mayweather, Hatton, Cotto, Pacquiao, V.Klitchko, W. Klitchko, Mosley, Pavlik, Hopkins, Juan Diaz, Juanma, Margacheato, Amir Khan, RJJ, Kessler, and so on.
When was the last time a Klit fought in the states?
Wasnt it Vit and Lewis centuries ago
anyone can draw in europe
Look at Kessler a few years ago or all the crowds Calz drew fighting cab drivers
I like the Casino venue more cuz when you leave there is action everywhere. I seen a couple fights at the Thomas and Mack center and its a good venue but nothing like MGMGrand Garden Arena.

whoever said berto would be a better draw has no contact with the outside world..
nobody knows who berto is outside of hardcore fans
they barely know JMM..all they know is he gave pac man a hartime when ask
seriously tho.
I was at the Judah fight. I would be the first one to tell you that it was almost a sellout. That was a packed house and only a few empty seats. The Thomas and Mack holds more than the MGM also

Now what do you guys think about Floyd and JMM not selling. Golden Boy Promotions just let out the fact that PBF vs JMM sold better than Hatton vs Pac at the same time. I'm tired of these boxers making up fake injuries but there is no benefit to Floyd to make this up. Especially if he is going to face JMM at a later date.
marquez is a better draw than baldomir..
Maybe but he is not a top 15 draw in the game.

both of pacman and mayweather can't draw crowds without a crowd drawer opponet simple as that,u need 2 well known fighters for crowd to watch......:killyou:
No not at all. What has Berto done? Sold a few thousand seats in Florida? JMM is coming of a fight that sold well (He had no less crowd support than Diaz), a good PPV in 2008 with Pacquiao, and he's arguably the best p4p boxer in the world.
People don't want to see Floyd. He's not a crowd pleasing fighter. He can't sell out his hometown arena. He's not a draw.
JMM had no less crowd support than Diaz in Houston? WTF
if floyd wouldve fought lets say berto..the numbers wouldve been much higher..

Floyd or No Floyd those WWE evets always sell very well,a nd they always have 70K plus attendance.
Floyd was irrelevamnt to those numbers!!!!!!!
Lets be honest with each other. I'm going to give you some dream fights and you tell me what fight would sell better.
Pacquiao vs Mayweather > Pacquiao vs Cotto
Mosley vs Mayweather > Mosley vs Cotto
Margarito vs Mayweather > Margarito vs Cotto
Ticket Sales Mayweather would win. The big difference is Cotto has faced and will face these guys and Mayweather didn't.
Hatton Sell out
De La Hoya Sell out
15,170 vs Zab Judah
9,427 vs Carlos Baldomir
12,675 vs Arturo Gatti sell out
7,106 vs Sharmba Mitchell
