    I know that it will be a mega money maker w/o press tour or 24/7, but do you really want this fight to be silent from starting the announcement of the fight through training camp, then u only get to see the fighters on weigh in and fight night? You don't honestly want this fight to have no 24/7 now do u? having a 24/7 or press tour is not just for promotion for more big bucks but to keep us updated and pump/hype us up!!!

    I have no problem with it being March 13. Pac will have no problem he looked pretty healed up in recent pics. Mayweather fans would have flooded the forum with ducking threads if it wasnt soon. They just bumped up the beating even sooner for Mayweather. :yep

    It's only one because they are trying to limit PBF's mind games.

    Just as well... if Pac happens to sing at more than one press conference this fight wouldn't do more than 5,000 buys.

    No. People are paying to see Floyd beat a legit fighter. The rest are paying in hopes that Floyd loses.

    If they are only doing one press conference that could be better. Arum will have a little extra cash. How about a decent card leading up to the fight? Pretty please.

    With both fighters having fought recently and the fight being 3 and a half months away (basically), just having 1 press conference wouldn't make a difference in the fight sales. There will be a 24/7 in a likelihood, but what will be new. Mayweather and Pac have had plenty of 24/7 features and I can't envision seeing anything I haven't already seen from both camps.

    Who cares...let's just get it on. I love hype and all but a really good fight can sell itself.

    Doesn't really need promoting the fight sells itself. This is already a topic of conversation between people who don't even follow boxing. Everybody is interested and there are still 3 months to go.

    Well, It would have to be a very large Press conference to really echo the full excitment of this fight.

    Shame there isnt one in London aswell :(
