No-one wants to see a bull**** catchweight fight with cheating Margarito. Give us Mayweather or Marquez or don't bother.

We would love to see Mayweather but he just ISNT INTERESTED IN BOXING AT THE MOMENT.. Maybe when Pac is 80 pushing himself in a wheel chair with Parkinsons, then Mayweather will get in the ring with Pac but as far as anytime soon, DONT COUNT ON IT

I was actually shocked at how many people showed up to see Manny fight in Dallas. There were tons of Filipinos from all over the place as well as causal fans who came out to support the Pacman.

With that said, going over 51k will have a lot to do with the Mexican American fan base. If this was pre-Mosley Margarito then I know this would do 75-100K.....now I'm not sure how this will do.

yea....for 10$ a pop.

A lot of Mexicans that I know don't like Margarito anymore. He's disgraced their country so I don't understand why Team Pac thinks the Mexicans will flock to Margarito. He just doesn't have that kinda support anymore. But it is Dallas Cowboys Stadium and I think that has more to do with it than Pacquiao or Margarito. But if the tickets are as cheap as the pacquiao-clottey tickets it's possible.

IF you're gonna do something you might as well be good at it. And when it comes to hating you are one of the BEST!!!

how is 70,000 a sellout when 100,000 attend a football game?

isnt a football field bigger than a boxing ring?

Pre-Mosley Margarito vs. Pacquiao would have sold the place out.

And the fact that Pacquiao already fought Clottey 8 months ago at Dallas Stadium took some of the novelty out of the stadium attraction. Might take away a few thousand fans. I think 40-60K can be expected.
