In hindsight, was May 3rd an event worth paying for?

    Mayweather replaced Maidana's punchers gloves with gloves used ideally for sparring sessions, how's that for excitement?

        yea...but not because of the undercard...that **** ****in ******...same kind of action as you would see in those suck ass Top Rank undercards


        the excitement of the main event made up for it


        actually, watching Floyd get repeatedly punched in the vagina was worth every penny

            In hindsight, no.
            Khan vs Collazo? Collazo has always been a bum, with his only good wins coming purely off bad style matchups vs Collazo's actual skill. Khan is a solid fighter with two losses due to reckless abandonment.
            Broner vs Molina? Molina is a scrub, and Broner was expected to own him.
            Mayweather vs Maidana? This stood out by surprise

              Without question. I have never regretted buing a PPV, I love the sport of boxing, period.

                everything is higher now i miss those days!

                  Nope and I didnt order it. I went to friends house. It was great seeing Floyd pushed to the brink but 70 dollars vs a heavy underdog isnt worth. It was Maidana's 2nd fight at 147 so Floyd was facing a huge underdog. If Floyd was fighting a bigger man or someone at a higher weight that would be worth paying that much money for.

                    It was actually Marcos' 6th fight at 147. I know honest mistake.

                      I was excited about this, but not enough to spend $75.
