They're doing a good job with promoting the fight

[Dirt]

all these little stories pop up every other week. this week it's the olympic testing.

they want us to keep talking about it.


you all know it's going to happen. too much money involved.

Kinda of agree, Richard Schaefer has not said much this whole time then all of sudden comes out today, also Mayweather has not said a word the whole time about negotiations, but does today in a group statement with Schaefer.

the fight will happen...but I must admit it is pretty fun seeing how the *******s are reacting though.

by ignoring me? LOL

crackheads and bunch of no crediibilities doesnt create any **** among pac fans..

when you demand too much that is a sign of paranoia and scared to death.

[Drum Roll]

It's their strategy to hype this mega fight. Manny is too polite to trash stalk with Floyd, and hype the fans, so they came up with this story. Excellent strategy

could be a promotional thing, i hope it is cuz this is a huge fight and it would be a shame if it didn't go down!

[RockStar45]

I'd like to think this a promotional ploy, but don't they have to make the fight official soon? The press conference is in two weeks.

[Dirt]

yeah it is for promotional purposes.


if you remember, pac already agreed to olympic testing. what's being argued, i believe, is the amount, and how soon before the fight.

yes it's for both fighters, but pac is more active and requires more stamina.
mayweather has excellent stamina as well, but his output isn't that high and he doesn't solely depend on that. so i guess you can say he's more versatile, but come on. think about it. pac's whole style is based out his workrate. mayweather is trying to take that away.

Seems like they are promoting the fight keeping it on the front page as much as possible, just look at this forum about 1k people viewing on a Tuesday night. It's really unheard of all the time I've been here.

Yahoo front page
Espn talking about venue/drug testing

These ****ing promoters are just milking it for all it's worth.

[Dirt]

exactly. but im glad they keep promoting it! the more buzz, the better.....but hopefully they don't overhype it to the point where anything that happens on march 13 will just be a disappointment.
