    Manny said on the broadcast last night that much like Hearns/Leonard the public are going to demand the PBF/Pac fight.

    Do you all buy into this and do you think it is true?

    This fight will truly massive a PPV monster not just around in the USA but around the world. I think we are talking a 120 million dollars just on TV around the world not including the gate, both fighters will be able to make 30 million plus for the fight, just incredible amounts of money.

    Yes, the public is demanding it, meaning mega $$$$$, more than any other fight in the sport, which ultimately will be the reason the fight takes place instead of either guy fighting someone else.

    Incredible paydays, bragging rights as the top p4p fighter in the world (and maybe deciding the top fighter of this era)...it'll happen after a lot of bitching and posturing on both sides during negotiations.

    Can't be too long isn't Manny quitting boxing for politics during the middle of the year?

    Will this fight help to bring boxing back into the spotlight? This is the type of fight boxing needs is it not?

    Can the public secure $60 mln for Mayweather so his pain for degrading his resume would be smaller?

    What ever gets this fight done.

    However Roach is already interfering saying it has to be MAY as March is to soon for Pac to fight again.

    He also saying he needs time to study the ULTIMATE OPPONENT.

    He needs to show manny what he sees.:rofl

    I thought this was the easiest of the 3 Roach???

    Why you need so much time to plan. :deal
    Lets just hope roach shuts the **** up so we can get this fight done and dusted lol

    This fight has to happen. There is too much money involved for all parties involved. It will be good for boxing because this isn't the result of some hype job but the real deal, the top 2 P4P fighters fighting at a natural weight.
