Is this credible? Pretty good numbers if so, Arum won't make a Mayweather fight when he can churn crap like this out at 1m PPVs a pop
LOL preety good even after all the selling the fight off the back of floyds name they could not outsell him or even come close. dismall to say the least
Just announced by HBO and Ravioli and Iole are racing to write and publish the first article on it. :good
Back of Floyd's name? There was barely a peep of his name in any of the promotions. Maybe in Episode 1 of 24/7 that lasted for 10 seconds when Manny scoffed at him. Not even the 60 Minutes episode said anything about him. Nonetheless, very good numbers if true, especially for a disgraced relatively unknown boxer. Even a lot of hardcore boxing fans boycotted this fight because of Margarito's past. Manny is officially a star.
You know what i mean, good numbers yes, but the fact that they promoted this fight off of Floyds back in relation to him ducking being scared of invincible congressman is dismall. The only problem now is Arum will keep more in house we will never see the fight we want.
Looks like the Mayweather vs Pacquiao is a match which already listed fight cannot be made. I doubt Arum if he gonna accept 60/40 purse in favor of Mayweather. Looks like he prefer another in house fighting or free lance fighter like Mosley.
