Mayweather-Marquez failed to sell out

Where did the promoters announce the ticket sales number?

 

Still waiting for a link to that story

 

buxzer you need to edit this thread title if it's going to keep getting bumped.

I don't see how "Mayweather-Marquez ticket sales" could be possibly "still a problem"

 

This guy Buxzer is one of the funniest cats I've seen on a boxing forum. For weeks he says that the fight will bomb the fight does good at the gate but more importantly PPV and he still crying and won;t admit defeat to restore some credibility.

 

Expected you to show up immediately desperate try to give yourself credit after countless ******ed posts.

Ticket sales means nothing. Mayweather/Baldomir did MORE PPV buys than the sold out Pacquiao/Morales fight and Mayweather/Baldomir wasn't sold out.

It's all about PPV numbers, that's the main focus. Of course, I wouldn't expect a dumbass like yourself to know that.

 

Nevermind found it

"It's up to Floyd," Schaefer said. "Oscar had the choice to pick who he wanted to fight. Now Floyd Mayweather is in that position. He has inherited the vacant throne of pay-per-view king.
"This fight might put his average pay-per-view performance to over a million per fight. Who has done that? Nobody? When you are the pay-per-view king you can pick the dates. The date will be there for you, just like it was for Oscar."

:yep

Hmm, Baldomir-Morales, now there's an interesting fight. Especially given Erik's strategic weight gain in recent years... :think

 

So you have nothing saying the promoters said it then.

 

The damn things over and he still tryin' to make it fail!

I tell you right now, the weigh in alone was one hell of an event, much less all else that followed.

 

BUXZER,

why the **** do you care how many ppv's or whatever the **** your talking about, mayweather/marquez sold? would if make you feel any better if their ppv sales were lackluster so that you can say pacquiao is the biggest ppv star on the planet? get a damn life you little pendejo!

 

Ok!
