    Looking back at the Mayweather event ... I've never seen 1 man get that much support from him fans ... 50k britz crossed that ocean to watch that fight! ... 50,000!! ... that's crazy ... I can't see that ever happening for another fighter

    They have a gingle for the guy!! Big ups to them

    If Filipinos had as much buying power as Brits have. I'm pretty sure Pac would surpass that easily.

    Yeah it was dissapointing that he didnt won, It would have been a big party otherwise, Also when you like at all the pre fight hype you can see floyd really getting to ricky with his non stop talk about his wealth and discrediting ricky the whole time. I felt kid of bad for him when he lost, he got trashed and then knocked out via a ring post...

    same for puerto ricans, would they earn a good living like euripeans often, I think 50k would have been possble for Tito's peak time.

    In some ways they have a point ... but if they're countries weren't soo poor then maybe boxing wouldn't be so big .... u can go all day with "what ifs" ... reguardless 50,000 people across the atlantic is crazy ... I'm sur not all those people could afford it ... I'm sure some made some major sacrifices

    The MGM only holds like 17,000 people.:patschWhere did you get 50,000 from?

    And you wanna see support watch Julio Ceasar Chavez pack 100,000 into a stadium.
