How many posters here are Canadians? It seems like there are quite a few judging from the posts that support Floyd or Broner...just saying..
I'm Canadian from Vancouver
hey man. I'm in Toronto. Welcome to Canada where they would rather watch Curling, poker, horse racing, golf and MMA (2 gay guys dry humping each other in front of a beer drinking crowd). Not to forget, they love to watch the Toronto Raptors get whooped and the Maple Leafs get whooped instead of watching Boxing. Boxing in Canada is dead and I am not even joking. Everywhere else it is alive. It's just Canada, and this is why UFC is lucky right now because these beer drinking idiots watch a lot of ufc.
but to answer your question, yes mayweather-marquez should be on PPV. Call Rogers or Bell on fight night or something. don't know about 24/ 7 though.
LOL soo true i checked shaw's website they only have august pay per view listed so hopefully they will have september's up soon, if rogers is airing it shaw probably will too 24/7 aint no big deal u can always download it off the web later, im just saying im subscribed to HBO canada and we get shafted up here on certain shows like 24/7 its bullshit pay 16 bucks a month and dont even get all the shows i hope they change there programming schedule. Leafs are always gonna be huge in TO just like Canucks down here. Yeah its true no one in Canada really cares about boxing no more everybody all about ufc but hopefully a Pacquiao Mayweather mega fight can change all that
it was on ppv, your not even from canada so why the hell you talking son? nyahahahahahhaahhaah
Cotto Clottey was not ppv dumbass it was HBO world championship boxing
what the hell you think? canada isnt a 3rd world country, of course were getting the fight. im canadian and im getting the fight. such a stupid question!
Yeah i dont know where ur from but in Vancouver Cotto Clottey was only aired on HBO USA HBO Canada didnt have the fight, also tsn never picked it up so couldnt watch that one we also do not have access to the jones lacy ppv, although it isnt a major fight still just saying. As well HBO canada isnt even airing mayweather marquez 24/7 its only on HBO USA i hope The Score television network picking it up like they did with Pacquiao Hatton 24/7. Ur probably right they will have it i was just wondering due to ufc 103 being on the same night here in vancouver the major television distributors are shaw and bell out east its probably rogers so maybe u guys have different access than us out west
are you retarded in teh ass/ why you think it wasnt on hbo..it was on ppv DUUUUUUUUUUUHHH nyahahahhaahhaha
Buddy cotto clottey was regular hbo it wasnt ppv why the fuk would it be ppv in canada u retard
So the guy starts bragging that he's the biggest draw in boxing.
He retires and makes a comeback to ace Juan Manuel Marquez...and barely anyone wants to buy the fight...
ughhhhhh
/facepalm
I dont really care if the fight is postponed and I believe the fight will do well in terms of PPV and at the gate as they hadnt even aired the 24/7 series yet and havent had much time to promote the fight. I do believe hes legitimately injured though, makes sense being off for almost two years.
On a side note u from Vancouver?? Im from there too Burnaby, hate the Canucks though Luongo lets in 7 goals in the biggest game of his career LOL Sedins prolly gone next yr too LOL
yea he did sign with gbp but his promotion company promted the fight and paid for MOST COSTS which means THEY GET MOST OF THE MONEY ASS hello... u aint gotta be a genious y do u think oscar made all that money fighting floyd cause his company promoted it smarty lol it was promoted by pbf he took the risk he'll get the reward..
Several sources said that the only money guaranteed to either fighter in this event as Mayweather Promotion as the lead promoter was Juan Manuel Marquez . JMM and Golden Boy Promotion was guaranteed 4 million dollars. 3.2 to Marquez the rest to Golden Boy for delivering Marquez. Now Mayweather as the promoter and he found out a harsh lesson here in this market place as the promoter he had to incur the cost of 24/7, the marketing, the press tour and anything associated with that event and then after that whatever profit there is including scalping tickets which Mayweather and Al Hayman do engage in they were gonna make their money there but a couple of problems there none of that existed with the secondary market with the ticket and they found out by testing the water that there wasn’t gonna be a demand for this event.
People bumped this thread when they said this fight wouldnt do well, im using the same source who stated MAYWEATHER PROMOTIONS LEAD PROMOTER OF THE BOUT AND INCURRED ALL THE COSTS. Let me ask u why the hell would mayweather pay for all the marketing costs and promotion costs of the fight if he wasn't taking home a significant percentage of the promoters cut???
And guys, manny fans made a thread about manny not caring about money right? He's not fighting for money right---even though he raped hatton, cotto, and clottey with the purse splits----
manny fans still have the awe to make a post saying the 40 million dollar drug test isn't what manny is about---he's making a stand---not ducking a blood test---he's making a ****ing stand---not ducking a blood test---i'll repeat once again---he's making a stand---not ducking a 40 million dollar blood test----
it's not about the money for manny----it's taking a stand for his dignity----
yet the stupid mother****er demanded floyd mayweather jr to pay 10 million dollars for every pound he comes in over 147----10 millons dollars? The ****ing irony in that bullshit?
But again, to manny fans, it's not about the money---it's about pride, and dignity---manny can do no wrong, i mean, he can cheat on his wife with paid women, but he can do no wrong----
i guess it wasn't about the money for that one either huh? He damn sure didn't duck that one? He was happy about the money then huh?
Well, with 40 million dollars, he can buy all the 3rd world hookers he wants--and that's no disrespect to 3rd world hookers at all----or hookers at all---don't twist my thinking folks---and don't try to make excuses for manny anymore---and his movie sucked----and imagine him him as a politician trying to talk to obama in english---god help us all----
how do you feel about terrorism mr. Pacquiao? Well, ummmmmmmmmmmmm, it tis a ummmmmmm, crazy fight we't have here ummmmmmmmm, we't have to git rit of tim ummmmmm, and ummmmmmm, if a tey shoota me ummmmm, then i be okay only if ummmmmmm, it's 24 days out ummmmm to da fight ummmmm coz i feel weak then ummmmm, and i shalla ummmmmm singa 4 you ummmmmm if i survive ummmmmmmmmmmmmmm----i go vacashion now ummmmmmm----ear hurt ummmmmm---it was a goot fight----tuff terraism---ummmmmmmm---the end ummmmmm--tank you mista presi ummmmmdent ummmmmmmmmmm----[/QUOTE
Hahahahahahhaahah tht had me LOL
I love how Floyd fans love to over-inflate the amount of money he has made in his last two fights. Against JMM, he made less a little more than $10 million (guaranteed was $10 million, minus some cash for coming in over weight) and the gaining a couple from PPVs and a guaranteed $22.5 vs. Mosley and gaining a couple million on PPV buys. How that comes up to $65 million does not equate with me....
