    the low ticket sells doesnt mean floyd isnt a draw

    it just means people weren't buying this fight becasue they felt it was bull****..i think the pressure has been put on floyd to perform now and fight a genuine challenge.people arnt gonna pay to see floyd knock out jmm..i think floyd realized that and will scap the entire fight..something is happenng behind the scenes

    Nice Try. Pacquiao-Diaz was bull**** and still sold 11,000 seats.

      If Floyd was a draw regardless, people would want to pay to see him fight.

      Which makes me FURTHER believe that more people pay to see Floyd lose than to actually watch him fight. Whether thats something to be proud of is up to Floyd himself.

              Why are you trying to downplay Floyd vs Marquez now? You were one who was endorsing this fight as a great tune up for Floyd. Now that the ticket sales thus far have spoken for themselves, all of a sudden you're in agreement that people thought it was a bull**** fight?

              Tellin you dude, all these theatrics are not foolin people anymore. Pacquiao's become the fighter fans love to embrace while Floyd is still trying to pull schemes to get certain fights made.

              Though Im a fan of Floyd as a fighter, I couldn't be happier to see this unfold.

                  Two things to consider:

                  1. The time of the year
                  2. The state of the economy. There are hotels closing down on the Las Vegas strip because of lack of business.

                    We all knew Jennings was nothing more than a confidence builder and Cotto still sold 12,000 +, nice try bro.
