    Seriously though

    Mayweather vs PAC would be the biggest non british fight ever in Britain

    That fight would be the only one not involving a british fighter that wouldn't flop

    Their the only two non british fighters my mates know over here in the UK

      hattons popularity is overrated, he has a big fanbase that will actually travel but to casual fans he isnt a god or anything.

        This is going to be a hard enough fight to sell stateside.

                Because pacq is better than pbf in every category we can name. nothing pbf could ever do would be good enough to come close to the legacy of pacq! So what the ppv buys were better with two common opponents, it was a recession. so what pbf took the 154 wbc belt from dlh, pacq stopped him at 145. so what pbf was the 1st to KO hatton, pacq put him to sleep in rd 2!

                pacq 1,000,000 times > pbf

                Man give me a ****ing break!

                  Has anyone actually confirmed this will be on PPV over here?

                  I was thinking the other day this is gonna be on PPV seeing as it's been getting attention on sky sports news 2 months before the fight, most fights are lucky to even get a mention on the day of the fight.

                    stop loving floyd for one second and listen. Casual boxing fans know who Mayweather is. They know he is damn good. They know he beat Hatton. They know his dad trained Hatton. So far your correct.
                    Now heres the difficult bit for u to swallow: They couldnt give a **** about him. He doesnt even have the hate here to make people wanna pay to watch him get KOd. They just want to see Pac v Floyd. They just paid 16 quid to watch Hatton get KTFO in 2 rounds. They arent gonna be to eager to pay for another one sided beat down.
                    Sorry. Not everyone loves/hates your boy.

                      this fight will only be bough buy hardcore fans if it is on ppv marquez is unknown to the casual fan almost and most people recognise floyds talen but think he is a donut.
