      It's doing fine, you only need like two weeks to convince casual fans anyway. It's the stubborn hardcore fans who need constant promotion to be convinced and usually we do this amongst ourselves just by talking about it. They did a 10 city conference and all access starts on saturday. Sporadic commercials and billboards are just a back up. Trust me the fight hype is there, everyone knows about the fight.

          tbh canelo is going to gas after a few rounds and floyd's going to school his a ss.

          best not to promote it as an insane mega-fight as it's not going to live up to the hype.

When they have them here in NYC it takes place about 10 minutes from my job yet unless you're a boxing fan who follows the sports current events, you wont know anything about it. These tours pretty much cater to those who plan on purchasing the ppv anyway!!

                ya and even that number is going to be gigantic

                    Agreed, I watched May Vs Mosley with people who didn't know crap.
                    They were over there talking about

                    Sugar Ray Leonard was Sugar Shane's Mosley father....

                    Who would win out of Ali vs Mayweather

                    Who would win out of Mayweather Vs Tyson

                    Who would win out of Mayweather Vs Lewis

                    NEVER WATCH BOXING WITH CASUALS!!

                      I actually gain a lot of respect watching boxing with casuals I find. I always drop little interesting tidbits and by the end of the night people are impressed haha
