    If Maidana performs better than expected it's because Floyd is slippin'.

    And if the fight does over a mill buys, the paklas will claim they still lost money cause GBP are idiots too invest too much on a quality PPV for the fans lol..

    These idiot fan base actually complain about a promotional company spending top dollars on a PPV card for the paying fan

      How is Ginger doing headlining on his own, though?

        Did you watch the fight? The crowd was electric. 9k people + comp seats all watched one of the most satisfying beats downs in recent history.

        Maidana now has 115k twitter followers, a 1.5m + viewed highlight vid, and part of the 3rd highest gate of all time.

        He's bigger then he was vs Broner and this isn't Maidana vs Broner its Maidana vs MAYWEATHER. Better believe the people show up.

          Just fine if he gets a good opponent. Chavez Jr would be great numbers.

            the perceived buzz of this fight seems lower than normal for a Mayweather show. Myself, I haven't yet seen a single TV commercial for "The Moment" and I remember seeing a few for Pac Bradley II in the week leading up.

            My guess would be that the event will do well at the arena but PPV #'s might not be the explosive numbers like the Canelo fight. They have to compete with NBA having 3 game 7's (two of which are on the west coast) and maybe NHL playoffs (dont follow but i know they are going on too).

              It was the total opposite for the Canelo fight. Vegas had crazy energy two weeks prior to the fight. Vegas was buzzing those whole two weeks.

              Broner and Maidana was not in vegas so I don't have a point of reference.
              Whoever said that is a lie

                It all makes sense to them though.

                    He's definitely not lying lol..

                    I know many spanish guys I know and they'll hit me up after they say "**** Mayweather and the fight" they know *****es love boxing, and everyone love *****es.

                    I'm a college student but I'll pay for the fight, get some music going in one room, have the fight real loud in the other. Get these guys interested bring some festive treats, there we go. Women come, no matter what.. If you say Mayweather fight tonight. There are droves.. My personals are going to come through and their friends and then some stragglers, and then that's when the money comes.. Those spanish dudes and those black guys that decided to nix the basket ball playoffs and get around some honies. I love boxing weekend.. end of semester and a great boxing party.

                    I should roll up some kush right now.. and take a nap. Weigh in.. two hours from now, just got back from the gym and the anticipation setting in.

                      The PPV numbers should still do good regardless especially the past week Floyd has been all over the news for his comments about his ex and the clippers, even though the live gate is one of the biggest that means nothing since Floyd tickets are always expensive, what people are saying is there is no buzz even though Floyd had his posters everywhere. We will see how the weigh in looks.
