My girlfriend and my sister both work for Directv (at different locations) and they keep telling me everyday about the amount of people talking about the fight or calling in about ordering the fight. At school, everyday I hear groups of people talking about the fight, and I haven't seen a fight get this much buzz since Oscar vs Floyd. Even when I running around town all this week Ive heard people talk about this fight everywhere Ive went. Don't be surprised when this is the highest selling fight since Oscar vs Floyd.
BTW this is coming from someone who dislikes Floyd. And while I slightly dislike, my sister and my girlfriend can't stand him and are annoyed by it at work. Only mentioning that to let people know I'm not a Floyd nuthugger... but someone just keeping it real.
We always buy the big fights but me and my Cousins agreed not to buy this fight. I just want to hurt Floyd's PPV numbers. My Mexican neighbor who is a JMM fan will not order the fight & just watch from the feed direct From Mexico via Satellite dish.
My Prediction: Only 500k buy.

Yeah there is big buzz about it. Kind of strange - one the biggest boxers over here is not from here. But i'm not complaining.

I think the Hatton fight really broke Floyd over here to be honest
Yeah ure prob right, but a lot of boxing fans I mingled with respected b4 Hatton too. EnjoyLast edited by Bigchill79; 09-18-2009, 12:59 PM.

Even they both come off those fights with wins...the hype will be HUGE
much bigger than them fighting right off the bat.[/QUOTE]
exactly right.....they're building the anticipation
Originally posted by pacmanis1 View Postno offense but i can no longer take anyone on these forums serouisly when they talk about floyd. everybodies knows someone who works somewhere. not saying it wont do well, i personally hope it does, i mean cmon im a fan of BOXING not just fighters, but when people talk about floyd i take it with a grain of salt.
for the record i live in minnesota and the only thing anyone has said here is there lucky the ufc card is crap. a couple of my friends are excited since its in a theater and ive been hyping it up since i saw it announced during hatton pac, but no ones been talkin about here, but that doesnt mean too much since i dont know anyone who is really into boxing here. although i asked jose, a kid in one of my classes, if he was gunna watch it and he didnt even know what i was talking about. guess it was kinda racist to assume just because hes mexican hed be watching it.
Originally posted by F-22 Raptor View PostMayweather is such a ****ing moron. He could have waited 1 day!!! and fight PACQUIAO! that would have done easily 1.5, he's a ****** moron. This fight is going to bust because the real fight people want right now is Pacquiao-Cotto.
**** it. no comment. ****** post.
Originally posted by Pacdbest View PostI work in a Liquor store & I got a different feedback. Very few really are talking about it. I don't see the same Hype as the Pac-DLH & Pac-Hatton. Even some of the diehard PBF fans I know is not really that much interested. They don't think this fight is a Cant-Miss fight.
