    I've bought all of Mayweathers PPV's, but I will not be spending a dime on this fight. I assume no one on here is buying this fight either...I hope. Boxing fans are passionate, not stupid. If this thing does more than 300,000 buys, we all lose and continue to be insulted by the powers in boxing..and probably deserve it.

    If we don't take a stand for these horrible matchups and then being charged 80$ for them then fighters like Mayweather will keep putting them on. To get them to stop, we don't pay PLAIN AND SIMPLE!

    I'm paying.

    This fight is bad but Mayweather fights are an experience, this might be his last.

    So I gotta pay. It's like watching MJ in his final years.

    How can you not watch The Best Ever fight?

    I love boxing and order every fight even the ones that I expect to suck

    I can't just not watch it and I don't like to watch it on a blurry laptop

    You are every person that is buying this fight, and no disrespect but fans like you enable greed in this sport. He wants you to believe that it is his last fight so you will buy it, and you are compliant. Of course he will have a 50th fight, but he doesnt want you to know that. Sorry to tell you but Floyd doesnt give a sh@t about you, he just wants your money. I hope you feel you got your moneys worth after the fight. I guess that is all that matters

    Sportsmen don't give a **** about any of their fans!!!

    But I want to watch that man fight, it might be his last!!!

    :happy:happy

    I guess I'll be enjoying a great card on Sept 12th while you'll be doing something else!!!

    Nothing wrong with not buying it, don't criticize those that want to watch great boxing.

    Trouble is abuffy youre 10 yrs too late saying that. Floyd has gotten rich out of cheating boxing fans. When was the last time any of his opponents got a level fight??
    I cannot remember one, every opponent faced a heavily stacked deck in Floyd's favor. Also he avoided any dangerous opponents

    Oh I wasn't talking about when he was in the Wizards, just talking about when he was in his final years as a Bull. :happy

    I've bought most since Baldo. (went to movie theatre for the few I didn't buy)

    Probably won't get this one.
