3,000 ticket sales for his comeback fight...

The fight was a farce, everyone knows who would win it and he probably should have fought a ww. You know ww, the weight class he fought 4 of his last 5 fights at? And the one fight at 147 he didn't fight was the one where he challenged a 154 pounder. Floyds dug himself into a hole, he could have fought collazo, quintana, and those names alone would have helped him sell tickets since Puerto-ricans are huge boxing fans and have alot of pride.

Those are some good come back fights, picking a smaller guy for a comeback fight who has never fought above 140, is not a good choice for a comeback fight. And not everyone is Manny Pacquiao, no one knows how well 36-37 yr old Marquezs body will adjust to weight that high.

Can you imagine thousands of Mexicans traveling to America in the midst of swine flu? I think Americans are smart, may have thought about this, not buying in. And Mexicans would rather buy medicine than watch PPV or go to that fight.

I suspect this is one of the major factors it becomes hardsell.

but still, for someone who is arguably the greatest boxer of this generation, only a handful of people wants to watch this fight. im not really interested at this fight but i thought some people would be.

The public are starting to wake up and take notice.Not going to buy the Floyd **** he keeps spinning.Floyd , finally you will have to face the music son.
Previously , I never minded Floyd, but there was a time I thought would eventually come where I would start to hate Floyd.
Unfortunately, the time has come now..

Big deall. All these guys making all these same hate threads WILL tune in for everyone of his fights from now until he is retired again. That's a FACT.

As I have continued to say, I'm not big on ppv sales and ticket sales. But the FACT of the matter is that THEY WILL TUNE in when he fights. It doesn't matter if they pay or not. It doesn't matter if they tune in to see him lose or not.
