    As bad as it might sound hatton is still not as bad as Delahoya. That guy takes advantage of his fans knowingly with a smile on his face every time he has a fight coming up. Then again all of this could be the Golden boy's work as well.

      Did you check the petition?

      I agree. Oscar said that Golden Boy was going to do this and that. How many great GBP cards have we gotten?

      The World awaits?
      Hopkins-Wright?
      Mosley-vargas?

      Quite frankly, other than making more money for a handful of boxers, i have yet to see how GBP operates differently than TR or ME or GTP did.

          Nope and by the same token I chose to use the word "perhaps".

          By my reckoning you are a Floyd nuthugger but I'm willing to be proved wrong....so I left the door open.

            see you get it.

            just because the tickets will be "priced at 1,000 900" or what ever .. doesn't mean they will sell for that much.

            hell squeal if you knew you were putting in a ballot against 40,000 other people .. you would have to put up at least 3 or 4 thousand dollars.

            and im saying 3 or 4 thousand as a minimum.
            This is a ballot though, not an auction. I would assume that people who are successful in getting tickets will be billed for the tickets they recieve at face value (and probably some sort of processing fee), and that if people are billed over the face value then there would be public knowledge of this occurring, not just a "what if" article on the internet.

              Damn Dupe, is that what they use around here? Not as bad as a nutlicker but still equally hurtful

                  The assumption that you are making is that you are worth convincing. That would be your second mistake in the past few minutes.

                  Run along.

                    Since this primarily impacts the overseas market, I figured that i would post it for the benefit /analysis of teh Brit fans.

                    Americans aren't usually THAT motivated to attend the actual fight.

                    I have been to Vegas for plenty of fight weekends, Only on a couple of occasions have I attended the actual (big) fight. In fact, it kinda ****s up your night to go to the arena.

                      well, you're getting some love, so hopefully they will consider the requests of the forum members.
