    Hard to sell a fight that even casuals know is garbage. Let's hope it never gets announced

      I'm still hoping for Mayweather-Maidana, and maybe Floyd gave Broner some step aside money, and that's why Maidana said he wouldn't be fighting in April. Porbably not happening, but one can hope.

      Mayweather-Maidana
      Broner-Khan

      That might be a card you could sell.

        it sounds silly, but they do this. it's not just bscene, but all over.


        i know for a fact that they gauge the popularity of these fights by being in contact with the major vegas hotels. they use those numbers to set ticket prices.


        i'm convinced that enough complaining on the internet is what moved broner - maidana off of ppv.

            this is a garbage mismatch of a fight that won't go past 8 rounds.

            khan isn't even a huge draw in uk. i was at garcia-khan in vegas and saw handful of khan fans.

              i know maidana just beat broner, but do any hardcore boxing fans out there think maidana vs mayweather is going to be a competitive fight? as a paying customer i would not be interested in paying to see that fight.

              broner vs khan sounds like a good fight to me however, but not ppv.

                Ticket prices for this fight will be the same price for the Guerrero fight more than likely

                  Floyd is waiting for people to forget about Pac's charity fight offer so that he's not bombarded with the questions. He's been quiet as a church mouse ever since.

                      That offer went as far boxing websites only fool would think Floyd would reply to giving his purse to charity but NSB where the fools go.
