i don't think pbf vs hatton will break the may 5th bout

not even close

[BROOKLYN CESAR]

Hatton n floyd dont have the pulling power to break the pbf v dlh!!! Then again haters of floyd will be watching an hoping he gets beat!!!

[RodBarker]

Dont be surprised if it happens it has broken a few records already and we still have 24/7 and it has been the most heated debated matchup in years , I think it will , if not it will be very close .

[niceguy45]

it will be close, but the difference will be the promotion, i think the dlh vs pbf sold was because of the promotion that was given....i don't see the hype in pbf vs hatton.......

I don't think it'll break it. Oscar is bigger in the US than Hatton. I don't care what it sells, I just wanna see it.

I don't think it'll break it. Oscar is bigger in the US than Hatton. I don't care what it sells, I just wanna see it.

I don't even think it will be SLIGHTLY close.

People (casual fans) were already buzzing about Mayweather-DLH at this point near fight time. I don't see that same sort of awareness and anticipation with this fight.

It wont even be close. Who wants to watch the p4p #1 run again.

Yes Oscar de la Hoya vs. Maywether have the record, but was the fight exited for more than a minute! THERE WAS NO ACTION, THAT WAS MORE LIKE A SPARRING SESSION FOR BOTH OF THEM, IT WAS NOT EVEN CLOSE TO BEING A PROFFESSIONAL FIGHT. NOW COTTO VS. JUDAH WAS EXITED AND BET COTTO VS. MOSLEY WILL BE TOO.
