Mayweather/Marquez: Ticket Prices Tell The Story

[Xcusemymood]

There you have it dave. Just one of many. DLH did good numbers against Forbes. JMM certainly have more followers than Forbes.

Oh you mean the free fight on HBO? Dumbass.

Why wont we hold Floyd accountable for what he is saying? Is he not accountable for his discriminating statements against MMA fighters? Look at what happened. White is putting UFC 103 competing head on ppv against Floyd-JMM. What if UFC and boxing will always compete over PPV audience when both could have co exist harmoniously. This bcoz of what Floyd have said.


Bottomline is your saying that Floyd is doing these to sell fights and not bcoz he believes it. I don't think so. Why would Floyd demand 15 million guarantee if he don't believe his fight with JMM will do huge PPV buys bigger than Pac-Cotto?

The fact is Floyd's trashtalking don't sell fights. The PPV buys of his fights depends on the draw of his opponent wether he trashtalk or not. Even if he will trashtalk and cause drama everyday, his fight with JMM will not draw huge PPV. Even if he won't utter a single word if he will fight Pac, Cotto or SSM, it will make huge PPV.

Now they will lie and do all the drama to cover up the 15 M guarantee of Floyd

OMG you are hopeless.

The PPV of any fight depends on who is fighting each other. I have stated that over and over.

Of course Maywaether vs Pac, shane or cotto will outsell JMM. They are bigger draws.

You are illogical if you think Mayweather vs ANYONE is supposed to outsell a fight like Manny vs Cotto because of something Floyd said.

Plain dumb thinking.....

Then why would Floyd demand 15 M guarantee if he doesn't think Floyd-JMM would outsell Pac-Cotto?

Who's dumb now?

Not suprised...

One guy is not really known by casual fans...

The other guy hasn't fought in 2 years...

Why is this fight on PPV? Why is there a 24/7? It should be a regular main event on HBO World Championship Boxing...

Floyd either had it stipulated verbally or in his contract. It's as simple as that.

[Kakutogi-Gumi]

boxing acutally NEEDS a PPV every month.. but the thing is it needs a PPV every month with a GREAT card...


UFC has been doing that and has been making bank recently

Except when they're in Europe.

or when a good quarter of their roster is under med suspension or training and the other 2/3s isn't really built up yet. Like with 103.

Fact check:

Floyd/JMM is competing with 103. The date of the event was already established and prelims were starting to be announced as far as May.

GBP is just taking advantage of the name exhaustion.

Yes you're right. Floyd/JMM is the one who competed with 103. The date was set by 103 first and Floyd/JMM moved to the date after the postponement.

But 103 was supposed to be not on PPV or on delayed telecast. But after the descrimination of Floyd, 103 was announced as PPV with free prelim bouts. White also stacked the card

From what i have heard from different sources when this fight was annouced, Mayweather/JMM was suppose to be on free HBO because Mayweather wanted to comeback and fight on free HBO but HBO didnt have enough money to pay both Mayweather and whoever is opponent would be the sort of money Mayweather was asking for so in the end He and HBO agreed to put it on HBO PPV.

[Xcusemymood]

Then why would Floyd demand 15 M guarantee if he doesn't think Floyd-JMM would outsell Pac-Cotto?

Who's dumb now?

You dont even make any sense?

Floyd demanded it because he can. And hes being paid more than Pac and Cotto.
