      Hey mr. Flint....

      This comment is for you. What makes you think that fight was fixed? Because ARUM promotes both fighters? Your out of your mind! The only FIXED part of boxing may be judging and that's it. You can't pay any amount of money to GAGE what these men go through over 12rounds. I bet you couldn't touch MANNY in a boxing ring either!

        or duck the fight again.

        What success? They won't even announce what the PPV numbers were which is a very bad sign for Pacroid and his fans. They were predicting a mere 700 thousand PPVs but haven't announced anything. Even 700g PPVs is far from the 1.1 mill Floyd did with the Marquez fight. If those number are under 700g PPVs Floyd should demand 70/30.

            Golden Boy's magic trick!!

            Live boxing in movie theaters is an excellent option for fans! Consumers would most likely go to the theater and pay movie ticket prices to watch a fight instead of paying $49.95 or 59.95 for it at their homes!!! But, I'm fairly positive that Golden Boy ends up losing money. They have to pay thousands for the transmission costs that probably doesn't cover the low revenue split they get from the theater owners.

            So the magic trick here is....GOLDEN BOY WILL BE ABLE TO COUNT EACH THEATER TICKET (about $10) AS A PPV BUY!!! So....Golden Boy and a jackass like Mayweather can claim they sold X number of PPV buys!!

                  i guess against delahoya it was fixed as well...maybe to good of a fix because delahoya did not really land anything and pac landed power straight rights and lefts as well as bombs to his face...against hatton it was fixed too...i'll take a bomb from pac in the 2nd round that will almost kill me, then after the fight i'll collect my bonus for getting almost killed...same goes with cotto, i'll try to survive as long as i can and collect my bonus, i dotn care that my face is all beat up...that bonus is worth the beating

                  haha, yah, it was all fixed ;o)

                    the "watch the fight in the theater" thing is just another way of making profit if it does...so it can be counted as money generated for the fight...haha, GBP needs to find as many ways to show the fight so he has a better chance of surpassing pacquiao/clottey in total gross profilt

                      The whole theater thing is a device to attract more casual fans and make it more of an event. That's why I don't like it. I prefer to watch fights with serious fans.
