nahhhhhhhh

I dont really believe those numbers, I'll wait on the real figures. I expected closer to 2 million if not over but we will c.

The Pros for those numbers are that the manny fight should be easier to make if it comes down to money. The Cons....? that boxing might be on its last legs if not dead because there was alot of promotion put into this, but...we shall c.

As for now i dont believe those numbers and i really hope they arent true.

Whoever told Iole that is kidding himself

[Zarco]

Mayweather-Mosley was the most hyped and advertised pay-per-view in the history of the sport.

Thats a huge NEGATIVE....
