    That one was on Showtime and one was on PPV for 50 bucks aka you have a ******ed argument? Stupid.

    Anyways since 103 will be headlined by a rematch, I feel a lot more confident in JMM/PBF beating out 103. I still say it'll be 600K-700K for Floyd and 450 for UFC.

    UFC 103 is in my hometown and theres so much buzz out here for it since UFC hasnt been to Dallas in a long time and we never get any boxing matches but I dont think Mayweather vs. Marquez is gonna do well yes you do have two of the best in the sport going at it but its not a box office draw because Marquez doesnt have the following that Hatton, De La Hoya, and Gatti brought to the table for Mayweather and hes done nothing really to promote the fight and make people want to see it since hes playing the good guy this time and hardcore boxing fans know that PBF is a great fighter but you have the people who just watch boxing and say Floyd is boring etc. who will want to see nonstop action, but I think Floyd vs Marquez will slightly beat UFC 103 because the card isnt that strong and I dont think UFC draws well in Septembers anyway since their top stars were on 100, 101 and 102 so Mayweather vs Marquez gets my vote

    I can't picture anyone who spends time posting on a boxing board not wanting to watch Marquez vs Myweather

    Well, I think it'll do well but I'm not sure if it'll surpass Mayweather/Marquez because its card isn't that impressive. Henderson and Franklin is hardly getting people hot underneath their clothes especially as its a rematch which people aren't THAT excited to see. And the rest of the card seems a bag of balls atm.

    Of course, when this is over, Mayweather'll be running around going on about how he equals ratings and beat UFC at PPV buys. Probably a blessing in disguise for him.

    Right. 103's card is essentially a throw away card considering how loaded up 101 and 102 are.

    Still the UFC has it's core market that won't get touched by boxing. The casual UFC fan is the swing one and I think it'll go to boxing.

    Depends on the 103 card I guess, who's on it?

    But the undercard for the JMM-PBF fight looks good, so I'll go with that.

    That's why you always should make it a public poll.
