[leonthegee]

put mayweathers name next to anything and it wll sell and thats with all the pacquiao fans boycotting the fight and going up against the ufc. lolololol pathetic. everyone knows who the ppv attraction really is. ive said it once ive said it a thousand times. MANNYS NOTHING BUT A CLUTZ WITH SPEED!!! manny pacquiao interm p4p1. money mayweather true p4p1.

I knew it would make more than Pacquiao Vs Hatton fight.. The Mayweather fans are delusional to think people bought the fight for him. If you don't think so, if they're ever is a Mosley-Mayweather fight look at the PPV numbers.

Wow Im ***in blown away
I never thought this fight would get over 400k.
I was totally wrong! Well good for Floyd and JMM and everyone involved. Regardless of who you think sold the fight, it obviously did well..no it did great and Dana White knows now that he cant *** with boxing.

Thank you Floyd and JMM!

PS I still hate floyd but cant knock his draw or his numbers
and no one can knock JMM for not being a draw either so floyd ball washers realize that JMM had a big part in those numbers it wasnt all floyd and you know this!

All Floyd? Naw.. but it's mostly Floyd. Casual folk don't know who Marquez is really. Mayweather has done a good job exposing himself to the public with creating 24/7, appearing on Dancing With The Stars, ESPN, BET, Radio, and associating with the World Wrestling Federation.. and being a grade A ass in boxing. People can't help but fixate on what he is or isn't doing right.

Then there's no point in ducking Mosley. Mosley might not sell but he's Money May right? He'd get his money.

[M.I Truth ?]

Yeah, in Oct they coming out with a lot new designs, and I saw some guy wearing the body shot t-shirt, he walked past me to go to work and i nodded to him, and mumbled miguel cotto we both smiled and **** lol. they look more like the MMA t-shirts this time.

Yea I'ma check it out. This put me in a good mood for boxing.

IF Mayweather really is the draw then there's no excuse for him not to fight Mosley.

Afterall, he'd be making money anyway right?

mosleys next dont worry

CALM DOWN MAYWEATHER NUTHUGGERS! This wasn't all Floyd Mayweather. Golden Boy Promotions worked their a$$es off in promoting this fight and did a hell of a job, Juan Manuel Marquez has a good following (not "Superstar" status, albeit, but see who 80% of the live crowd was cheering for), it was Mexican Independence Weekend with a top Mexican fighter in the main event, the undercard was good, and we were coming out of a boxing-starved summer. All of these are factors that contributed to the success of this event. Mayweather deserves some of the credit for this success, no doubt about it, but it was a hell of a joint effort. Of course FM is going to take FULL CREDIT, while people with no common sense will also give it all to him.

I see this as more than Mayweather becoming a "Superstar", as follows:

1. GBP has now officially become a REAL PROMOTOR! We can no longer say that they are just an HBO booking agent with Oscar pulling bait-and-switches to get his way. Many props to them.

2. Great night for boxing. As a previous poster stated, Dana White can eat sh#t. The most "boring" fighter in boxing co-headlined a show and kicked his show's a$$. Can we now stop hearing about why fights shouldn't take place on such and such dates because UFC is holding their garbage on the same night???????

Good to know I wasn't the only one entertained Saturday night. 999,999 other people saw the same amazing exhibition of skill I did. Congratz PBF!
