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.
      I 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.

      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.

          this thought has come to my mind plenty a times.
          Now the economy, before the level of competition. Mayweather Jr. has been the main event for the past 9 years and I think that has something to do with it.

            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.

              Same here, gives me a group to watch it with!

              I think the Hatton fight really broke Floyd over here to be honest

                  [QUOTE=blackirish137;6124703]which is ******. I mean, yall really dont want to see Pacquiao-Cotto or Mayweather-Marquez first?

                  Even they both come off those fights with wins...the hype will be HUGE

                  much bigger than them fighting right off the bat.[/

                  exactly right.....they're building the anticipation

                  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.
                  like you said, you live in minnesota.

                  yea....sure....wait another year and....




                  **** it. no comment. ****** post.
