    Don't you just want to slice Arum's belly open for that?

        I see you voted Firepower will do 800-900k. But, what you think is going to do or is that what you wish it does?

An awesome fight that you wish everyone saw, but they miss out on. Then you get crap that is overhyped(anything with Floyd involved), and it put's people to sleep making them say, "damn why did I get conned into this crap? That's why I prefer MMA better." It's the sad world of boxing. The fighters that deserve the attention don't get it. And the ones that don't, get too much of it.
          GBP fighters have no problem selling PPVs or getting millions of viewers to watch the HBO BAD cards because they actually promote their fights unlike Top Rank.

          How is boxing going to grow and touch casual fans with a promoting company like Top Rank. Pacquiao and Cotto would have had double of the money they have in their bank account if they were with GBP.

            Do you forecast that "Firepower" will fail to sell more than the Mayweather/Marquez fight? Or do you project that Pacquiao / Cotto will sell more than Mayweather / Marquez?
            hello no!!!

            lmao all the people who voted.. FIREPOWER will far exceed NUMERO UNO - More than 1.5 Mil

            SMH!!

            yeah ok

            I dont think Cotto has sniffed 500K ppv's

                I agree with you..this promotion has been non-existent...the casual fan IS NOT ordering this fight...no one knows who Miguel Cotto is

                WE do...but the avg fan doesnt

                  Golden Boy does not know how to bring up a fighter. They don't know how to move fighters. Golden Boy can't do nothing with an HBO date. Arum is the last real promoter left. He don't need an HBO to put his fighers on tv. Golden Boy has yet to do great numbers by themselves that does not include Oscar of Mayweather. And, I am not sure if they ever could...
