Real reasons why Marquez vs Gayweather was postponed...

[johnle43]

hadnt pieced it together...nice theory. this will benefit jmm. now he has 2 extra months to not only put on the weight, but to get used to moving with it. coupled with the inactivity of pbf going on almost 2yrs come sept. should REALLY start peaking some interest no?

Sales for the fight must suck (cuz nobody cares about Gayweather's comeback). Gayweather seems to be going all out to promote this fight, even painting an American flag on the wall of his gym. UFC 100 is happening a week before the original date of July 18th. People would have spent all their money in Vegas during the weekend of the UFC event. Most people would likely spend their allotted PPV money on the UFC event. The new date: September 19th. Mexican Independence Day weekend (Sept 16th is the actual date). Marquez fans will surely fork out the cash on this date. PPV sales will be pretty damn good for the fight around September 16th thanks to Marquez. But I'm sure Gayweather will claim the numbers saying he's Mr PPV, LMAO.

yea i agree with all of this.
at the end of the day this fight aint as anticipating as some people think. now pbf needs the mexican fans to buy this fight.

September 19th isn't the new date for the record. Marquez is just saying he'd perfer it to be then.

for now lolololol it's all part of the plan.. it will be official later.. just wait..

haha nice picture man

Like I said, it looks questionable as it stands right now.

But if the fight is rescheduled for September 19th, then I think it looks even more questionable.

Would you say that's fair?

****in lame either way. UFC100 and that fight wouldve been great back to back. And we we're planning a weekend in vegas of that week, getting ready to rage it. Now mayweather supposedly has hurt ribs 1 month before the fight, and he needs 3 months to recover. ****in douchebag ****.

I want to hear exactly how he injured his ribs, was he fighting inside with a sparring partner? he ran into a pole? It'd be funny to hear if he was sparring with a lightweight and he broke his ribs. I hate that duck master even more now.

[Beasty]

Exactly, how can mayweather hurt his ribs? Thats the point, why would he lie bout something like that. Lol are you serious.. If he was going to fake an injury he would of came up with something like, broken fingers or something like that.. Lol

Plus you cant just fake an injury, he would need to get proof of his injury he prolly has X rays of his ribs.. Lol at all the floyd haters.. Its rediculas.. Im sure its in his contract if someone is hurt and is going to post pone a huge fight. There will need proof.

What if he needs 6 weeks to heal and then another 6 weeks to train again. That is 3 months from now, hopefully it is not that serious though.

This actually makes sense. Wow, you earned the green k.
