    I'm dead serious. I've actually asked a few people about what they thought about the fight, and not too many people know about it. Some people don't even know who Pacquiao is, let alone Clottey.

    In other words, they should have never had this fight in Dallas, because no one in Dallas cares.

    On a side note. This city was ALIVE for all star weekend. Downtown traffic was crazy, celebrities everywhere, sponsors were giving out fresh ish, etc. All Star weekend was great.

      the promotion for this fight has been terrible, remember pac/cotto and pac/hatton, the boards were going crazy, it was all over the sports news, people was out on mass all dressed up in national colours, for this one, i think i actually saw a tumbleweed blow past during the weigh in. Disgraceful.

          Dallas is not a big fight town. After hearing sports talk radio all day long all I heard is that "who cares about boxing , and its not heavyweights & why do I want to see little guys fight" just nonsense . But definitely head to lower greenville for bars tho and Cabaret royale too.

            Pac has done himself a lot of damage with the PED issue.

            Anyways, I made a thread about how the weigh in had hardly 1000 people and everyone grilled me here lol. I saw it on ESPN live.

            Also, I know for a fact that it is not sold out like Bob Arum the scumbag liar is saying.

            If they even sold 15,000, I would be shocked...

                  damn..not cool..
                  eventhough Im pissed Pac/May wasnt made..I still want boxing to be as big as it can..
                  I knew it wouldnt live up to Mosley/May..but I thought Pacs name would carry it more than this..I will say that this all couldve been avoided for obvious reasons..I live an hour and half away and wasnt interested in attending..but I still think this will be a great experience for the fans who travel to see it..I for one cant find anyone willing to pay for it..and since I wont be..Im left with the replay or stream..
                  hope you enjoy it..let us know how it is..

                    There is alot of haters on here or people that don't know what they talkin bout...It's almost sold out. They just released standing room only tickets called "Party Passes". Don't think they would release more tickets if it wasn't selling. Iole's column on Yahoo sports said the fight is tracking very well an it could reach as high as 900K PPV buys. If Pac can sell out a 45k stadium an sell 900k PPV units vs a no namer that's impressive. Even May nuthuggers goota admit that.

Im from LA and it wasnt talked about much either among my peers. Anyway, cant wait for tommorow, WAR CLOTTEY
