13,116 Paid Attendance for Sat is fkn good!

Good point, but not all the crowd flew from England. You know there is a fair amount of British residents in the US.

Yes, but even if you look at Collazo, Urango and castillo, none of those fights packed the house or did particularly big gates. So, Hatton just doesn't carry a big event.

I have get the TV ratings and PPV nums for work.*


* which is why I know that SM is not a commercial fighter

Why didn't those 12k fans came to see him in his other 55 fights?

They were there to see him beat Floyd Mayweather ....you get me?

Now, Kev....

Be the bigger man. Don't rub it in their face. Let it slide.

Boxing fans should be proud, both Marquez and Mayweather were winners in this fight. Marquez is now much more famous and is known to a lot more casual fans. He has at least 3 big fight/pay checks ahead of him thanks to this successful fight.

When all the trash talking about ticket sales, 13,166 for the MGM grand arena is beyond decent and around the same mark UFC has ever drawn at that ARENA.

Floyd Mayweather vs Oscar Dela hoya had a Paid attendance of 17,078 (highest at MGM grand arena)

Ricky Hatton vs Floyd Mayweather had PAID attendance of 15,488

Manny Pacquiao vs Ricky Hatton had a PAID attendance of 15,368

well pbf cant boast about being the main draw and ppv king. he's doing far less numbers than PAC, Oscar, and Hatton.

[Al Haymon]

co-sign.

How old are you again?

Yes. He can.

PBF is doing far more than Pac and hatton. Far. Go look it up.

[Kevin Jesus]

I'm gonna continue to cheer both of them on. Marquez and Mayweather are two great fighters. I wish to see fights like Marquez-Hatton and Mayweather-Pacquiao in 2010.

[RodBarker]

Yes. He can.

PBF is doing far more than Pac and hatton. Far. Go look it up.

They dont look nothing up Al because they always get proved wrong , they sooner go with their much quoted reliable sources lol .

[Al Haymon]

are you in denial? all i mostly saw were mexican flags in the back .

Grow up, child. Those fans came to see Marquez fight Mayweather. Those fans didn't go see Marquez fight casamayor. Or Diaz.

You don't see Arnold Schwarzeneggar and Charles barkley at other Marquez fights, do you? Those fans come because FMJ's involvement turns it from a fight into an event. Marquez knows that...but you don't.

Run along and play with your emoticons.
