      e.g. commericals and guest appearance proclaiming this is a must see, or this is the best fight in the last 30 year etc. People get this jammed that there throat with a ton of promotion and they will think they are missing out on a once in a lifetime event by not purchasing this fight.
      Yeah I understand what you're saying, that they need one to make sure the fight sells 2.5 million

        Not me...I'd love to see Floyd staring at the ground wondering what he has gotten himself into during the introductions....pic worth a thousand words

          It's not even about being shaken.....it's about addressing ignorant @ss statement like "this fight doesn't need promoting". Again name me a mega event in which the promoters kicked back, didn't do **** and the fight was still huge. Post it and I will happily shut the fvkk up.

            they're probably already talking about it.

              shaken up? pac fans, floyd fans, casual fans, pac, arum all want the fight.

              It was floyd who wanted to retire/go on vacation.


              why would pac fans be shaken with floyd signing with king & most likely getting swindled?


              EVERYBODY INCLUDING PAC & ARUM WANT THE FIGHT. It was floyd who said he wasnt interested in boxing right now & wants to retire when the cancer kid from make a wish asked him.

              dont get it twisted burns.

                No need to over exaggerate.

                Its August bro.

                Get a 24/7 and some ****ing commercials and get a move on it. This fight has gotten PLENTY of promotion.

                It was on the floor to be signed no more then 2 weeks ago for Gods sake. People acting like like they need 6 months to promote this. They have been promoting this since last year.

                Get it signed. Period. Im ready to see Floyd do what I know he can do and thats embarrass the living the **** out of Pacquiao.

                This fight doesnt need some long drawn out promotion. They've had that already. You should be hoping this gets signed. Its gut check time for Pacquiao and Floyd.

                  I don't get why you care about the promoting so much though. Do you wanna see the fight in Nov or in 2011 ?

                  IDC about how much these guys make or how good the PPV does. IDGAF about any of that ****. I just want to see them fight.

                    This has nothing to do with not wanting to see this fight and everything to do with being realistic. The is not a big enough window to do this fight the proper way. Now I can sit and live in a fantasy world in which Arum and King agree to everything off the back with no disagreements or bullying the other around but this simply will not happen. I do think the two can work together but again this will take time as one will not let the other one up each other.
