    For those of you who saw the fight in a movie theater, what kind of reactions were there from the headbutt, the ending, and then the interview with Merchant?

    At the theater I saw it at, the crowd seemed very pissed off by Ortiz' headbutt then actually stood up/clapped/cheered when Mayweather took the shot when he wasn't looking and when Ortiz was counted out it was a sense of shock ( a bunch of people shouted "OH MY GOD!! I CAN"T BELIEVE IT!". But nothing like when Merchant said " I wish I was 50 years younger and I'd kick your ass", the crowd was laughing uncontrollably and clapping. I would say it was a pro Mayweather crowd.

    I would love to go to the theater to watch a live fight, that would be a great new experience. If it will affect your sexuality, as you stated, then stay away.

    Why spend money when you don't need to?

    This.




    Most of the people in the crowd cheered when Floyd knocked down Ortiz.


    It was hype


    About 25% started hating on Floyd for doing it. But they were shouted down by everyone else.

    It was on the IMAX GIANT screen, why wouldn't I take advantage of that? The sound quality and picture quality can't be matched. Not to mention, I was going to watch the fights by myself, why would I pay 70 when I can see it for 18? I don't feel like watching a fight on a laptop, that sucks. I don't care if its free.

    I spent about 100 or so to see it. 40 for gas, and paid for my bro and my girl. Plus concessions and ****.

    Well worth it. Great experience. Cant wait to go see another fight at the theater.

    Because I can afford it and because I enjoy watching and supporting my favorite sport legally.

    cause we ain't all broke ass teenagers living at home with moms like your ****** ass.

    some of us have disosable income and choose to use some of it for entertainment such as watching fights at a movie theatre or buyign the PPV so we don't have to watch a pixilated buffering stream on a tiny screen. dumb little kid :patsch

    People were disgusted and upset. Some about the fight ending in a weird way others by what they thought was a cheap shot
