I know this fight sells itself but they aren't doing much to bring in the casuals. Where is the media? I've seen a few 30 second training clips that's it. We need behind the scenes vids.
Mayweather and Pac need to do a better job promoting this fight. Perhaps like a (clearly) staged brawl like between Rahman and Lewis. That was obviously fake Rahman over-powering Lewis and slamming him through a table. But that gained a lot of attention for the fight. [yt]GY5ABkVe3W0[/yt]
Yea, doesn't make much sense. This is when Floyd should be playing up his role as the villain, yet nothing?
What are you talking about? There are commercials for it on nearly every channel on television. Literally the entire boxing media has been inundated with talk about it since it was announced, plus more of the mainstream sports media than any fight in recent memory.
there was much more interest in their not fighting drama than there is now that they are. people are burned out. in other words (except for their more fanatical fans) they can go to hell until a few days before May 2. the media will still inundate us about it ad nauseum however.
Floyd should say he isnt not ever seen an Asian that could fight. And that no Asian would ever beat him ala like Hopkins said to Calzaghe. So he could troll the billions of Asian population into buying the fight to hope for him to lose.
you'd think a Mayweather would've already said it then. they specialize in promoting and otherwise general stupidity.
The fights sells itself and continues to 'trend' on Facebook where many live a double life. It is not really in Mayweather's nature and certainly not in Manny's to exhibit animosity beforehand. In fact, those who know this would surely look upon any publicised exchanges as pantomime. Nothing is going to stop this fight breaking records.
Yes that is correct. Floyd should go to some very poor Asian countries, flash his money in everyones face. And talk about what a dump it is there. Thats what I'd do to play the heel.
