My buddies that i met up with out here say there was no hype at all. I went to the weigh in, crowd was really small for THE EVENT. What is the hype like in your communities? Im from LA and it wasnt talked about much either among my peers. Anyway, cant wait for tommorow, WAR CLOTTEY
i aint gotta prove shit to you homeboy, Im here for the fight. Weather you believe me or not, its no sweat off of my sack
no way you're in dallas, you're just bullshitting
cuz clottey doesnt have the fanbase that hatton and cotto have nobody knows who clottey is
Exactly...If Pac can sell 45k tickets an push close to 1 million PPV's that is VERY IMPRESSIVE.

I live in Dallas. As a matter of fact, I'm about to head down town in a minute. There's been no hype for this fight at all. Most people don't even know about it.
fukkk you b!tches.. you aint in dallas...
proof or gtfo
There is alot of haters on here or people that don't know what they talkin bout...It's almost sold out. They just released standing room only tickets called "Party Passes". Don't think they would release more tickets if it wasn't selling. Iole's column on Yahoo sports said the fight is tracking very well an it could reach as high as 900K PPV buys. If Pac can sell out a 45k stadium an sell 900k PPV units vs a no namer that's impressive. Even May nuthuggers goota admit that.
damn..not cool..
eventhough Im pissed Pac/May wasnt made..I still want boxing to be as big as it can..
I knew it wouldnt live up to Mosley/May..but I thought Pacs name would carry it more than this..I will say that this all couldve been avoided for obvious reasons..I live an hour and half away and wasnt interested in attending..but I still think this will be a great experience for the fans who travel to see it..I for one cant find anyone willing to pay for it..and since I wont be..Im left with the replay or stream..
hope you enjoy it..let us know how it is..
the promotion for this fight has been terrible, remember pac/cotto and pac/hatton, the boards were going crazy, it was all over the sports news, people was out on mass all dressed up in national colours, for this one, i think i actually saw a tumbleweed blow past during the weigh in. Disgraceful.
:rofl: lololol Yeah that was strange it was like 100 People there.
Pac has done himself a lot of damage with the PED issue.
Anyways, I made a thread about how the weigh in had hardly 1000 people and everyone grilled me here lol. I saw it on ESPN live.
Also, I know for a fact that it is not sold out like Bob Arum the scumbag liar is saying.
If they even sold 15,000, I would be shocked...
Dallas is not a big fight town. After hearing sports talk radio all day long all I heard is that "who cares about boxing , and its not heavyweights & why do I want to see little guys fight" just nonsense . But definitely head to lower greenville for bars tho and Cabaret royale too.
Really? I heard that from some other posters too.
I'm dead serious. I've actually asked a few people about what they thought about the fight, and not too many people know about it. Some people don't even know who Pacquiao is, let alone Clottey.
In other words, they should have never had this fight in Dallas, because no one in Dallas cares.
On a side note. This city was ALIVE for all star weekend. Downtown traffic was crazy, celebrities everywhere, sponsors were giving out fresh ish, etc. All Star weekend was great.
I love the COWBOYS so I had to be at the first fight at their stadium. I could have easily saved the grand and a half Im gonna spend and watch it at home with my homies, but **** it, we only live once.
I think it's cool that you're going to the fight, and I'd go to if I lived in Texas or nearby. But you're right, this fight just isn't that big, especially now that Mayweather-Mosley has been made. Blame it on Pacquiao. He could have been fighting Floyd tomorrow, but he chose not to and without a good reason. He's gotta be on something.

Im staying in Mesquite, My buds are gonna take me out, Im not to much of a dresser upper so our options are limited haha
If you're staying in Mesquite, go to the Town East Mall tomorrow. It houses the biggest Footaction in America, as well as one of only nine House of Hoops stores.
Hit up North Park mall to, it's pretty amazing.
