I like Chilemba a lot good South African prospect a rematch with Oosthuizen will be a great fight, but i hope they fight other fighters and when they rematch hopefully one of them is a world champion both have good talent, it will be a super fight in South Africa.
only manny can pull this type of audience
Meh... for a comparison Chavez Jr fights will always beat Pacquiao fights on rating in Mexico unless Pac is fighting a mexican fighter.
So more like thanks to Margarito and Marquez
it has been like that back in the philippines for a while now for every pacquiao fight. i think tickets are like $14 each or 600 pesos
I think this is the first fight that will be shown in Theaters in Mexico in a long time, but I could be wrong, the Margarito vs Pacquiao fight could have been also shown in theaters but I don't really remember.
Here the price of a ticket is of 60 pesos or $4.49 dollars, really cheap if you asked me, I would have tought it will be like a 3D Movie ticket but no.
We also have Monday Night Football at theaters, after boxing and soccer, American Football is third here.
I remember a few years ago they had an NFL game at the Azteca...sellout crowd, the place was nuts
Yeah there have been several games here, this country is 50% Dallas Cowboys, 25% Steelers, 10% 49ers, 5% Dolphins, and the other 10% between the rest of the teams.
A shame that NFL only does now their London games, because of a dispute on the tv rights in Mexico
The Most Watched Robbery on TV - 43.2 MILLION Mexicans were the witnesses!!

The fight got 31 points on TV Azteca (Free TV), but at one point it peaked at 36 points of rating.
The number of people that watched the fight was of 43 million 200 thousand people when the rating peaked at 36 points, taking into account that 1 point of rating means 1.2 million of viewers.
"Los puntos más altos de rating que vivió la pelea registraron hasta 36, lo que significa más de 43 millones de personas viviendo, vibrando, con el triunfo negado que tuvo el ‘Dinamita’ en la ciudad del juego y ahora también reconocida como la ciudad de la estafa",
It was the most watched boxing fight in the history of México, beating for the first time the 30 points of rating.
The Pacquiao-Margarito fight, had that record with 27 points of rating, the Canelo vs Hatton fight had 23 points.
TV Azteca was hoping to get 30 points for this fight.
Great boxing is doing awsome here in Mexico, take that Dana White, a shame the most watched fighted in the history of Mexico had to have that outcome. But controversy sells and everybody is talking about it and ejoyed the fight.
But well now Marquez is looked by the people of Mexico as a Martyr and we idolized Martyrs... so he finally got his well deserved recognition!.

how do you know this? lol btw, what part of D.F. are you from? :boxing:
Well because I didn't see sh*t about colgados en los puentes in the news, everything was all about the most watched robbery on TV.... So I suppose they were peaceful for a while haha
Top Secret.... nah I'm from el Sur del DF
say goodbye to your money then, ur better of flushing it down the toilet. Marquez jus wants to go the distance with pac at this stage
Marquez will have a pretty good incentive for this fight
If he wins, he will get 10 million dollars for a fourth fight
lol
how did you learn english?
my mom is from cuajimalpa :boxing:
Good Mama chilanga...
And about that, it was to boring to learn it from school so the only other viable choice had to be videogames where else could a chilango learn it? haha
lol at ufc fans making a big deal out of 5 million people watching the heavyweight garbage fight lol.
Dame those are some good numbers and Canelo does some terrific numbers as well.
And also it was pretty funny Dana White tought he was going to stole the mexican market from Boxing.
But his dreams were shattered in just a minute and began moaning because Velasquez didn't go for the takedown and also he sh*itted on his new brazilian champion telling everybody he has bad cardio haha priceless
Dana needs to understand for his own good that boxing will never die because Mexicans will always fvcking love this great sport!!
It will just reaffirm what we should already know and that's that Floyd would school Pacquiao if they ever meet inside the ring. However if Marquez does make it difficult for Pacquiao, the fight vs Floyd will never happen.
HAHAHA
In case you forgot Mayweather went the distance with Marquez.
And styles makes fights, just look at Ali, Foreman and Frazier
Watch the fight again in slow motion and of course as a boxing fan. Then come back here and tell us who really won the fight.

that's nothing compared to the Philippines. Literally the whole nation stops when Manny fights.
Here rival Narco-terrorist factions were peaceful with each other for the duration of the fight and celebrated the masterful humilliation "El Maestro" Marquez put on a clueless Pacquiao.
WOW haha I just remembered this guy
But hey he has improved a lot haha, really he was afwul in his fight with Andrew Hartley, now I have to say he will kick Hartley's ass, Zelenofsky has improved :boxing:
I watched the Mayweather SR session and if I was in doubt before, I'm no longer a doubter that Charlie is a complete mental freak, he's not playing for the crowd or anything. All his Youtube videos is not him playing tough or something, he's just that kinda bipolar freak, you can see it in his eyes that he's taking some heavy anti depressant pills and stuff. To attack Mayweather Sr from behind in Sr's own gym is just wishing to be dead, with their steroid body guards and everything.
I must admit that I first thought Charlie was a guy looking to entertain people on the net with funny videos while trash talking and all of that, but after looking a bit closer on his videos, especially the recent ones, I just realize that the poor guy is actually suffering from a mental illness.
Yep,The Tyson one is hilarous haha and this one also made laugh alot
Keep it up Charlie Z the People's Champ
Can't hate on Chavez. It's a legit fight.
Sergio should just go to Europe and enjoy barely beating the euro bums. Maybe he'll grow a fan base there.
You know what that's a very good idea, he could be a star in Germany, they love their foreign fighters there, no matter what country are they from.
Sergio already has fought several times in the UK and Spain, I guess he went to the wrong market, he should have fought in Germany.
Or he could go to 168 and become a star in the US
