Margarito-Mosley a near sellout!

Or not paying customers. If I watched football I wouldn't be a paying customer, I'd be a "viewer".

Well, viewers = ratings, which equal money, so same difference in the long run.


Besides, I was referring to the fact that someone flipping through and enjoying the fight on HBO, might just be willing to pay for a PPV in the future.

The atmosphere is going to be awesome, not that 3000 people at the Home Depot Center **** I've been seeing lately on HBO. Hopefully the Mexicans are screaming there hearts out for Margarito and there are enough Shane fans to keep a U-S-A! chant going.

thats how i thought it was gonna be, Antonio Margarito atmosphere and maybe a few couple hundred Mosley fans at best, Good for boxing,


Why do you want to make this Mexico Vs USA, Its better off being the battle for L.A cause if it is Mex Vs U.S ,Mexico will win this and i dont think an old Mosley should represent the U.S, So its better off as the battle for L.A

Say what negative things you will about Arum, but he said about 4 months ago that he was getting old and that he knew he was on his way out. He said his goal was to make boxing available to the world.

He deserves credit for making this fight dirt cheap to attend live. I think nosebleed tickets were somewhere around $25. Hell, I payed $45 to sit nosebleed for Taylor-Spinks. Arum took a huge step in the right direction by cutting ticket prices in half. Weren't ringside tickets only $300? Not sure...

Margarito Mosley- near sellout of 18k
Pavlik vs Rubio- sellout of around 8k
Cotto Jennings- projected to do 12k
Diaz vs JMM- expected to sellout 15k

proves fights need to be in cities where they can cultivate and cater to the local boxing fanbase and stay away from casinos as much as possible

Exactly! Only the mega-fights should be in Vegas, and those should be the only ones on PPV. Four tops per year too...one per quarter.

[TRUE WARRIOR!!!]

i don't know why anyone would be surprised by this. the great ppv buys margarito did against cotto and the excitement this true warrior gives then fans guarantees that this would be a sellout. margarito may be the biggest name in boxing right now right there with pacquiao.

[Eric Holder]

Margarito's got a big and loyal fan base

[MANGLER]

This fight will be ill, and a hyped up crowd will only make it better.

[Zarco]

dang thats going to be a good atmosphere. ill be there as well.

[eazy_mas]

Some PPV? Every major PPV is 50 dollars and has been like that for a long time.

I never paid PPV. I dont even have one.

But is damn expensive.
