Mayweather-Marquez Falls Short With The Gate

[Al Haymon]

I'm surprised it even did that much. It was easily one of the worst matches of the year. The whole thing with the weigh-ins made it a WWE type of circus.

What was WWE aboutthe weighin? other than HHH being there?

The weigh-in was chill.

don't think so ,if floyd would have made 144 he would have been lighter
and then it would have been more of a fight,marquez was discouraged because he would hit him and floyd wouldn't even move.its not that marquez couldn't hit him cause he did,but seeing that mayweather was that heavy he chose to just finish the fight and collect.i'm not saying floyd isn't a good fighter.it's his actions that make me not like him.

He was discouraged because he only landed 12% of his punches and never landing double digit punches in any round. But how can a warrior like Marquez be satifsfied with just finishing a fight and collecting a check?

The refusing to even try to make weight at such "big" fight. I swear, you would think that Floyd was a champion trying to protect his belt. Except, he's arguably the biggest star in the game looking for a huge pay day. He has no intergrity, so yeah it made it a freaking circus act. The fight and the hype for this fight was a joke.

haters it still does'nt make a difference.weight,ppv numbers or whatever pbf will kick mosley,pac,and cotto's ass. actually cotto will put up a better fight than any of them.after floyd figures out shanes over hand right. he will start picking mosley's old ass apart.the ****y midget pac will get destroyed.

Alot of this has to do with the economy. Bunch of people are out of work right now..

I say 13k PPL is not bad, and 1mil+ buys??? this was not a failure at all

Don't believe the hype..It is NOT sold out.. http://www.ticketliquidator.com/tix/...FSnKsgod7XXi3A

Actually, ticket brokers get their tickets before the public does. They are considered sold, as far as the promoters and MGM Grand are concerned.


The actual tickets available through the MGM Grand and Ticketmaster are around $2,500+. There are only about 1,000 remaining, maybe less.

I bought my tickets on the day that they came out @ $500 a pop, I bought two. Tried to go back and buy two more to try and sell for profit on the Tuesday after they came out, and they were gone.

Official numbers came out minutes ago, it did 314 million buys in the US alone, some reports are saying close to a billion buys in India and Pakistan combined. No word on how well it did in Afghanistan, but rumors are floyd has a huge following there.

Best post so far! LMFAO

never said he was satisfied ,you said that.he looked prety mad that mayweather came in weighing so much.cause he would have did much better.who knows what would have happen then.maybe floyd would have won but,it would have been a better fight.

I was at the fight and there is no way there were 3,000 empty seats. When the main event started I thought to myself, there is only about 100 empty seats in the house. I too was expecting about 12,000 but it was almost full. As soon as i get the pictures on the computer I will post them on here. I do not believe at all that the attendence was 13K.
