    It's not a PPV, I think it's their network television debut on Fox free to air. Dana White can trash boxing all he wants, but when he found out Pacquiao's fight was on the same day they had to cut what was initially supposed to be a 2 hour show to 1 hour so's not to run into Pacquiao's fight.

            I stayed in the MGM two weeks ago and it's completely sold out, I tried to get tickets. It's impossible.

                Glad someone gets it

                  is floyd not as big a draw as he thinks?

                  he does great ppv numbers but as for his attendances there not as good as Pacquiaos obviously is he finally paying the price for not being a draw early in his career?
                  Probably cause in Manny fights they GIVE away a lot of tickets

                      Tell that to Pacquiao. Mayweather is taking on a young, powerful champion with everything to gain. It's a great fight and if you can't see that you aren't a true boxing fan. You should be hyped for all the big events.
