    Say what you want to say but he has done all he can to maximize this pay per view.

    If you go to espn or other sports sites there are live previews and links to view the countdown which in all honestly look awesome....

    He now has DL Hugley to do comedy before the weigh in...

    He placed it in movie theaters...

    He is trying everything he can..... but man, PBF just can't sell tickets!

    Schaefer said he's positive this Floyd-JMM mismatch, tuneup fight will be bigger than the November 14 PAC-Cotto fight...:lol:

    Do you believe that crap??

    if it gets 700,000 it will be a success.....why?

    because its going up aginst ufc that is averaging 300,000-450,000

    plus the marquez-pacquiao 2 fight sold i believe 450,000.....

    so 700,000 is a success....anything above 750,000 would exceed expectations IMO

    the guy is a multi millionaire and basically controls HBO Boxing along with the Klitschko's. I don't feel sorry for him.

    considering the amount spent on promoting this fight and the months it took, that number wont pay the bill.

    That's all that I even care about. Forget PPV sales, at least this time they given their fans a worthy fight card.
