    It obvious, Divac, that those involved in this sham of a fight are making a fool of themselves. Of all excuses.....:rofl Floyd the best defensive in the world w/ his shoulder roll and all has broken his ribs in training? Do you expect us to buy that? :rofl:rofl:rofl Mayweather respects Marquez by calling him a midget? :rofl:rofl:rofl

    The reported 15M and 3M purse split for Mayweather/Marquez requires 360,000 buys to break even on the PPV. If ticket Sales are low, then it is an indication that they may not reach this figure. As a businessman, indeed, you will have your apprehensions unless you are willing to gamble. Lets see on the coming days.

    Meanwhile, Mayweather may realize He will be better going straight to Pacquiao on Oct 17 realizing a PPV flop against Marquez will put him at a bargaining disadvantage in the future with Pac. But will Team Pacquiao may not see this scenario? Bargaining battle then ensue. We can just speculate of course, GBP knows better for sure.

    One thing is good though, we may afterall see Pac/Mayweather sooner that expected.

    Keeping my fingers crossed.

    I think Team Mayweather will be negotiating a fight with Team Pacquiao now, and they would offer a 50/50 split. Hopefully this scenario would happen.

    The timing of the announcement about the postponement of the fight is a bit strange. I think mayweather know that Arum is planning to stage a cotto vs pac fight, now that cotto won his fight against clottey.

    Rumors about poor ticket sales for his fight against Marquez are true. It has been reported that as late as friday, fans can still buy the limit of 10 tickets for the $300 seats, the second cheapest seats available.

    "Pacquiao vs Mayweather" - for the best fighter of the decade. :good

    This fight never had a lot of appeal in the first place.

    Now, in an economic recession, people don't necessarily want to spend their $$ watching two counterpunchers for top dollar. Especially when one is 35 years old and the other is coming out of retirement, etc.

    Anna Kournakova is the bomb!

    Merchant is right -- that is why PBF chose to fight big draws such as Gatti, Hatton and ODLH.
