Mayweather-Maidana gate already over $12 million

Maidana is the new Dinero de Vaca.

The reason floyds fights sell out so quick, is because haymon and MGM have some kind of wacky deal where most of the tickets go directly to secondary brokers and casino customers MGM wants to bring back. That's why Floyd will never fight outside of MGM. Haymon was the master of maxing out ticket profits when he was in the music Industry, he does the same with floyds fights. They brag about it like normal fams are rushing to get them, it's not even close to the truth. Come on, ain't no one rushing to go see this fight for that kind of $.I've heard of that practice. Was thinking of it when I read the article. The PPV #'s should tell us how people really feel about this fight.

i dont like how the MGM is the standard venue for biggest fights. we need something more epic...... like a coliseum from ancient rome .. lol

Damn only 16 thousand seats? I thought the MGM held something like 18 or twenty thousand still great numbers tho.

Because some so-called fans of Boxing are getting just as spoiled as some of the fighters. In what world, does anyone get exactly what they want? Fans need to grow up and stop bitchin and moanin and decide as a man\woman whether they're fans of the sport or just nuthuging fanboys. .... Its simple!!! Well said.

the gate aint the issue, Floyds name alone was going to pack out the venue, he's coming off a great win, he has a handful of fights left, so people will naturally want to see HIM, not matter who he fights However the PPV will be the issue there is no real buzz about this fight,

:lol1: how many other PPV events has Maidana headlined?? This ain't about the PPV, yet. It's about the damn gate. Maidan a helped move the gate so fast...no doubt

Bet u this fight tops 1mill ppv

somebody needs to pay me to watch a snoozefest fight. let me tell you about this fight: potshot, back pedal, potshot again... cling, elbow... potshot, back pedal, potshot again... cling, elbow... potshot, back pedal, potshot again... cling, elbow... there ya go folks. Mayweather wins by a boring UD. Floyd is going to stop Marcos. Look at Floyd walk down Canelo and beat him up against the ropes. Marcos could NEVER walk down Canelo, for he is too small. Floyd is going to be too big, strong, aggressive, and forcefull for Marcos. Marcos will be too small, slow, and weak and I think this fight will look a bit like Broner vs Perez.

So please explain to my why you are even posting here? Because some so-called fans of Boxing are getting just as spoiled as some of the fighters.

Because its a poor fight, that Floyd wins easily and is not worth paying for. Maidana lost to Khan!!!! how the hell will he give Floyd a decent fight? Another Floyd easy nights work for millions, I wont be contributing. so what...dont watch it,why even post in the threads about it?

I wouldn't watch this fight if it was at the end of my street. Easy win for Floyd, pointless fight. So please explain to my why you are even posting here?

I'm looking forward to the fight.maidana will press the issue nonstop. Not like canelo Alva . Who picked and choose when to fight.then got picked apart. But Floyd is going to take maidana to school too. At least maidana is coming to fight.
