    I took off work to see the Maidana Mayweather 1
    at work only 1 guy was talking about it too.

    Saturday when we logged off and got ready to go home
    People litterally were running pass the elevator to get to the stairs to get to the car so they can catch the main event which started early
    A girl didnt even go home to change out of her Business suit so she wouldnt miss it.
    I was about to buy it and got a call from my old boss said he was at the bar since 9pm et. and he saved 2 seats for me and my wife
    it was 12 of them at the table when I got there.
    There were no more seats people were standing in the middle of the floor watching drinking beers. I had to park at the mall across the street which was closed because the bar had took all the parking including the next door hotels! it was a slew of cars driving circls to find parking
    this fight was huge 1 million ppv sold guranteed.

    I personally knew only 3 people that watched maidana mayweather 1 and do to the hard work maidana did in 1 it was close to 30 people i knew watching this one having fight parties everything.
    Fight wasnt so great but the atmosphere was electric
    i guess we are just watching to see can this old guy go undefeated all the way

    Your post is incoherent and poorly constructed.

    What point is it that you are attempting to convey?

    yeh its hard to gauge weather the close competitive first fight drew in more fans.. but honestly id be suprised if this pulls in more then the first fight (and that was a failure ppv buy wise)

    Find it suspicious that you knew 30 people who purchased the fight and who were throwing huge parties, yet none of them invited you.

    I'm guessing you are part of the ciroc sippin/ciroc boy demographic.

    I'm sure the feeling is mutual from Floyd.

    Nobody gives knows or gives a **** about Froch here. Yet he packs the stadium there. I wonder why? Maybe because they're two different countries?
