    If you read his twitter feed, he is alluding to the fact that brokers are having trouble moving tickets at the current prices. Pretty funny is you ask me.

    Lol the prices are ridiculous. It would be funny if they fought in an arena that was half full

    No promotion whatsoever from TMT, why should people even care?. They shoot them self in the foot. I also expect the PPV sales to be a lot lower then what they estimate.

    I think they think this fight is bigger than it really is. I'm a lifelong boxing fanatic and I can't get really stoked for this fight. I imagine there are others who feel the same way. Trying to shove a fight down our throats that should have happened years ago, and making it like we should be happy to pay max $ for it. Floyd doesn't really bring any excitement to the ring in my opinion, and I think the fans are catching on. Does anybody really think this fight will end in a KO?

    I doubt it breaks the PPV record
     
  10. I actually made a thread about this after they announced the ticket prices. I said that the place would be half empty.

    It will still break PPV records. With that said the ticket prices are ridiculous, they're pricing out real boxing fans and it's a disgrace.

    I hope it will be sold out. I see Chicken Floyd backing out of this fight if his purse isn't filled with fresh $$$.
