Originally posted by sparkman0811 View PostHehe, good observation. Did not know the last 2 losses were at 147, even though Bradley fight was a robbery, and Marquez fight he was actually looking like the Manny of old, a lot of aggression. But, yeah hope he comes in light.

Originally posted by Johnwoo8686 View PostEverything you said was spot on. I feel like people were way more hyped for the Canelo fight than this fight. That fight also had a huge promotion and a multi city tour. Canelo had the Mexican fan base behind him and although Pacquiao has a lot of fans I feel like a lot of Mexican fans buy his fights pulling for the Latino fighter, kinda like they do with Floyd. There is no Latino in the main event and though I expect Mexicans to tune in I don't think they will have the same kind of emotional investment in this fight as they did in Mayweather vs Canelo fight or the Pacquiao vs Marquez fight.
The fact that this fight took so long to make, combined with the insane PPV price, and the fact that neither guy is prime, and the poor promotion signals to me that this fight will do nowhere near the numbers many are projecting it will do.
Yeah, regarding Mayweather-Pacquiao, they are really trying to milk the situation as a whole. Think this will backfire on them. Too many negatives and not enough positives going into this fight: Timing of fight, no longer prime fighters, poor promotion, bad undercard, ppv price, tickets, etc.
