    really? who the **** likes this fight? only reason I can think of is that they like the pacman therefore it sells out. Unbelievable how this does so much in 3hrs yet marquez,khan,berto and bradley can barely sell.

    impressive numbers.

    I sure hope people dont use this as a reason to excuse this **** POOR fight.

    Its a shambles and an embarrassment to boxing.

    I definitely don't agree with this fight, and Pacman IS my favorite fighter.
    However, for boxing this fight, the CBS exposure, and moving to Showtime with pac, etc is so good for the sport. HBO, and Showtime must really compete now, and this could possibly bring fights back to cable T.V.
    Plus, with huge numbers like these Mayweather wether he thinks he'll win, lose, or draw would be even more inclined to fight Pac.
    And although I think Pac is going to beat up on a shot old man with a punchers chance...I think the fight will actually be good. For the first ever Mosley is going to be knocked the hell out! and unlike Bradley vs Alexander the fight will be exciting, and the crowd will be happy with a Pac KO.

    Everyone knows this is make or break for Mosley's career.

    He's going to burn his bridges behind him when he comes to the fight ;)

    It's a shame. This fight sells out in hours while other great fights such as Lopez-Marquez, Williams-Martinez II, Marquez-Katsidis, and Khan-Maidana didn't come close to selling out.

    the Undercard is what really sold the show.

    Humberto Soto vs Urbano Antillon (fight of the Year, now a rematch)
    Jorge "El Travieso" Arce vs. Wilfredo Vazquez Jr.
    Kelly Pavlik vs. TBA

    without that good undercard, less than half the tickets wouldve been sold.
