Mayweather-Marquez Will Be The Biggest, Says Schaefer

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

During a recent conference call with the media, Golden Boy Promotions CEO Richard Schaefer said the upcoming Floyd Mayweather Jr. vs. Juan Manuel Marquez pay-per-view, scheduled for September 19, will be the biggest boxing event of the year. When asked if it will be bigger than the November 14 showdown between Manny Pacquiao vs. Miguel Cotto, Schaefer was positive it would be. [details]

well hes not going to say that it will be #2 to top rank

Schaeffer knows his stuff, the guy's word is gold.

I think Shaeffer is blowing smoke.

This will do about 1 million buys, but Cotto/ Pac will do a lot more.

Come on guys we must be running out of boxing news if this is a headline i mean what was schaefer going say....we are going to be second best?!?

[Picazo]

well yah its the biggest golden boy fight of the year, no promotional company will openly admit to being secound best. That being said, marquez does at the moment have i believe the fight of the year under his belt with the diaz fight, he could have another with this one.

Pacquiao vs Cotto will do better, but at the end of the day he isn't gonna say that... its about trying to sell the fight.
