    A poster here on ESB had reported that since the fight wasn't selling well the fight would be postponed and one of the fighters would claim an injury. Then the fight would be televised in regular HBO as to save face and avoid a PPV event that didn't sell well.

    Damn..I forgot about UFC 100! It's never a good idea to go against any other PPV, let alone a big one like 100. It would definitely hurt the sales of their own fight and stunt Floyd's ability to demand the larger purse against Pacquiao. I would prefer this scenario to Floyd actually being hurt though.

    Seriously? That blows my theory out the water.

    Still it's awfully close to their BIG PPV. It wouldnt be bad to push it back.

    Was it insight or theory? Interesting either way.

    Of course you do. It's the only way you can post...it gives you the forum to be a huge nuthugger and have you and your boyfriends all gang up on posters like you normally do. Strength in #'s, weak as hell solo...

    dreadfully poor ticket sales are the probably real reason. thus proving what kind of weak draw phloyd is.

    phloyd gonna have to take on Pacquiao, or expose himself once and for all as a fraud.

    Yup I wanna debate about Floyd ducking Marquez even though like you said he's favored to win. Everyone says he hand picked Marquez.

    The fight is also postponed not canceled.

    I think you want it to happen so you have something to talk about it.

    Marquez should do the same as Wlad. Pac - Marquez III at 140lbs in August.

    Right. My main worry revolves around how serious the injury really is and if it's a small sign of potential breakdown on Floyd.

    At this point, I'd love to see it, but it's very doubtful that this will happen.
