    lol

    Even with the special guest ref they still wont make numbers off it

    I'd buy it though

        His perception amongst my mates who don't follow boxing is that he is the best boxer.

        But, they said that before even seeing Mayweather fight against Hatton. Because the media told them he was the best.

        They're not going to hand over money to see the best boxer fight. I would, I guess most of the Brits on this board would, but that's not enough to justify a PPV which would be aimed at casual Brits.

        At the end of the day Amir Khan is far bigger name in casual terms in Britain.

          He can hardly fight himself

          He fought Castillo when he was up there, Hatton when he was up there, fighting Marquez who is now number 2. etc

              Dont worry, it will sell pretty well in the UK especially after the press tour their doing now. And yes, all everyone talks about here is Mayweather v Pacquiao, that it has to happen. This PPV will do well AND........Hatton fans have lost 2 houses now! They lost one when he told them to bet their house on him beating Mayweather too
