Conflicted....on 1 hand I want to support boxing and the Canelito - Trout fight but on the other I don't to give Mayweather anymore of my money for cherry picking Guerrero no Canelo Trout, and no Santa cruz Moreno? not buying this garbage card. Might go to a bar and watch Mares De leon if it gets made. but i'm not even streaming Fraud Guerrero

If they don't have it in theaters, I'll purchase it. any updates on if this Floyd fight will be @ theaters? I could always hit up the bar if not @ theaters Don't forget Badou Jack! :lol1: They'll add more fights too. Was really hoping for Mares-De Leon. De Leon has been on a few Mayweather undercards. Mares-De Leon is on for it ... should be good.

It's now been put out there that Canelo might not even be on this PPV since Floyd is allegedly refusing to fight him in the fall. That makes streaming even more of an option now to some.

I'll be buying it. I think maybe 1.1 million or 1.2. I don't think it'll do better than Mayweather-Cotto, let alone De La Hoya-Mayweather.

I agree. With Burns and Abril both tied up with bouts in March, might be too quick of a turnaround. But I hope I'm wrong. Would be great to see Broner-Beltran would be decent for the undercard but I don't know if it could work with his HBO deal. I don't know how flexible it is.

Santa Cruz on there will also be fun. Don't see Broner being on there. I agree. With Burns and Abril both tied up with bouts in March, might be too quick of a turnaround. But I hope I'm wrong. Would be great to see

I've purchased worse mismatches. Pacquiao-Margarito/Pacquiao-Mosley, Hopkins-Jones II, Pacquiao-Marquez III, to name recent one's. Mayweather-Guerrero is nowhere near any of those mentioned above. Couple that with Canelo vs Trout and possibly Broner on the undercard. Of course i'm buying it. I really hope we get Broner on that card man.

I plan on watching this card @ the movie theaters tickets are either $15 or $17 so I think that is a hell of a deal. I am much more excited for Canelo-Trout bc that is a true 50/50 fight but if it goes to the scorecards Canelo has the fight in the bag.

1.6 Million. Its big, but not close to Mayweather vs De La Hoya. I'm curious as to why people think it will do greater numbers than Floyd's last PPV with Cotto. His last PPV featured Floyd vs the 3rd biggest draw in boxing, being Miguel Cotto. So on the card were four fighters and each had namesake; Floyd, Cotto, Mosley, Canelo and that did 1.5 mil. Guerrero and Trout aren't big draws at all.

Yes, I will be buying the PPV. I plan on having people over and Barbecuing that day. It's Cinco De Mayo weekend party time. It gets crazy out her where I live People hit up the strip and hit the clubs that night and get crazy. If the Ghost pulls the upset and that a big if San Jose will go Crazy.
