    I thought pure Pacquiao fans don't care to talk about money or purse splits and just care about fighting? What happened? The second they get a leg up on someone they suddenly want to talk business?

    Oh, and I guess this 150-200k number pretty much squashes the notion that Marquez had anything significant to do with doing a million against Floyd.

    Man oh man, this sure makes a bunch of you look like morons.

    that's horrible...

    I don't think this fight was promoted well at all. I blame GBP.

    It should not have been a PPV to begin with.

    obviously schaefer is whacked. he is fast aproaching bob arum's status as a shady individual.

    we care about pac-floyd fighting and not pac-marquez3 which is obviously a mismatch now. btw, where is floyd?

    It was a good card. Undercards MUST be like this in future.

    I simply cant bear to watch TOP RANK undercards these days

    Hmmnnn... nice total PPV buys.

    It was a nice card put together by GBP but Pirog killed some celebration on GBP's part. Pirog took the thunder out from the more recognizable names like JMM, Juan Diaz, Casamayor, Linares, Rocky Juarez, Guerrero and Jacobs.
