    for those of you who think its exclusively because of mexicans, think about this, Juan Manuel Marquez fought Joel Casamayor at around the same time...on PPV nonetheless.

    Which one of you would like to tell me the numbers on that ppv, and compare that drawing power to this one?

        So, Mayweather owes $52 Million to all households who bought the PPV.

              But there are no guarantees. People who bought Tyson tickets knew it. We only hope for a good fight.

              Anybody know the numbers on the UFC event?

                You mix vinegar with salt and youget nothing, but if you mix vinegar with baking soda and you get a chemical reaction. both fighters contributed to it. Mexicans were arroused by their guy fighting Mayweather which led them to buy it. fact is they both needed each other.

                    So then why was there so much talk of mayweather carrying a PPV on his own? Be honest here, if the ppv failed, it would have said volumes about mayweather as a draw, not JMM.

                      but if this would have bombed as MANY ppl thought that it would then Floyd BY HIMSELF would have been the blame, NOT BOTH OF THEM....FACT.
