there you go. with fanatics like this who needs the fight? all they're concerned about is ****ride all day without getting a single cent. even at the expense of not seeing the fight.

"mayweather SHOULD NOT accept 50/50."

so ****ing what? fight won't happen. so what? you hero would be labeled a coward for the rest of his life. that's exactly what i want.

These floyd apologists simply don't get it. As if fight not happening is in their hero's best interest. They keep making these ****** threats, "Oh Mayweather is the PPV king, Pac needs to bow down to his highness, or else the fight won't happen." So effing what? Whole world would blame the biggest pu&&y in the world till his dying days. That's heaven for Pac fans and the Mayweather's haters.

These floydiots just don't get it.

they came in rather quickly.

Yes they did come in quickly and from the only source that has any credibility when it comes to these numbers, HBO. 1.5 and still counting, these are just the "actual reported numbers"

haha, After Mayweather-Ortiz my step dad was like "Man **** that I aint ever ordering a Mayweather fight again! That was Bull****!! that was some WWE **** right there.."

LOL He ordered Mayweather-Cotto.

[tredh]

Because the fight ended early (considering it is Vegas) and got hooked up with a VIP table at the LAX.

The bold said it all cause this new Fat Joe of about 2 years after big Pun died is just horrible. I would been suprised if you said you went cause you a flat out fan of Fat Joe.

Personally I would have been at the party Diddy had I know it was probably poppin in there!! Was Fat Joe party any good?

Pacquiao/Marquez > Mayweather/Marquez

Pacquiao deserves 50/50

very good numbers. To me, this was a fight that had to happen in this era of fighters no matter when it happend. sumthin like SRL vs Hagler. Its one of those fights that will be talked about right along side, Corrales, Castillo, gatti, hatton, Mosley and De la hoya in mayweathers career. Very good fight. Very good numbers and i expect them to go a little higher(maybe 1.6 sumthin) before its over. Pac better sell the hell outta that Bradley fight....lol

[Emari9823]

One again Schafer was talking crap about getting 2 million+ buys. Good to see HBO is backing up this number though. When will they release the Ortiz numbers is the question.

They did... The article is over at ESPN now... 1.25 million buys for the ortiz fight
