i've always said it and i will still stand by it.. this dude, being foney bedwetter is living off of other fighters fame and drawing abilities.. he knew marquez was one of the hottest tickets after dispursing of THE 2 best LW'S in the game via KO's.. so he signs the fight and sells it like the fight like the fight of the century.. and delivers a soap opera! you got to admit that the arean was %80 marquez.. so i'll apply that to PPV's... %80 marquez.. i heard no mayrunner cheers, i seen mayrunner get **** thrown at him.. i saw what i saw, and heard what i heard.. AND how he had a "rib" injury and was magically postponed to the MEXICAN INDEPENDANCE DAY, another selling point... until this dude goes to the home depot center and sells it out vs steave forbes, or staples center and sells 21000.. then talk to me!! till then he's living off of other fighters hard work!!

Dude, you are delusional. need some oxycotin or something

It is what it is compa, Money is a leech and knows when and who to fight in order to appear as larger than life when in reality it's just all a show.

is the 1 million ppv buys just in america or does that include mexico?

[Spacey1991]

Seems like the PPV did a lot better than people expected, I didn't expect more than 600k to be honest cause of the amount of guys against the fight. The ticket sales did pretty good to considering how bad people were expecting it to me, overall it seems to have been much more successful than people expected (if these reports are true, which I think we all believe them).

JMM sold it!!

Aha! When has JMM ever done close to a million buys?

This is hilarious! Apparently Floyd isn't a draw at all, when DLH, Hatton and JMM get there most successful PPV with Floyd it had nothing to do with Floyd... apparently the opponent drew the crowed... but when did they ever do that good with somebody other than Floyd? Never, Floyd's name sold the fight, people were more interested in seeing it than they have with other opponents because Floyd was fighting.

I aint saying Floyd was the draw against DLH, that would be ******... but he obviously had something to do with it because DLH has had his most successful PPV with him.

By the way, I aint gloating... I aint saying it is hilarious cause of what people said about it before... cause at the end of the day it doesn't affect me at all... I don't benefit financially from it, but what I said I found funny is the fact that whenever Floyd has had a successful PPV in his past 3 fights people have all of a sudden said it was cause of the other guy, but when they fought Floyd there PPV was the most successful, he obviously has something to do with it.

Marquez helped. The gate was because of Marquez in fact. But would you agree that Floyd is probably the biggest draw in boxing now that Oscar is gone?

After Cotto Pacquiao will get a clear picture!!!!!!!!!!
