    Stupid fight. It does nothing for Pac. Not understanding Arum's angle here, this fight does ****ty PPV numbers.

    Disappointed. Pac should've fought someone else.

    I like Timmeh but......

    we have already seen this fight twice. I cant ever recall wishing I could see it a third.

    Pac should have fought Crawford, and Timmeh should have fought Khan.

    this fight will fail financially and will make pac ungrateful to his fans. he is becoming like mr money and not the people's champ.

    Save some blame for Arum. He deserves the biggest slice of the blame pie.

    Truth is a Khan or Crawford matchup probably does sell more PPV buys than another Bradley fight against Pac, but not appreciably more for Arum to eagerly risk Crawford's zero or to share the profits with Khan's promoter.

    Now I happen to think a Broner matchup would do big PPV numbers; I'd guess over a million buys. But the problem of profit sharing with another promotional outfit again is raised; and considering it would be with Arum's nemesis in Haymon, this fight always was gonna be a long shot.

    Bob arum gives me a ****ing migraine.

    Khan would probably produce a more exciting fight, Crawford a more scintillating matchup. Bradley's a cool dude but come on we've seen this fight twice already

    Pac didn't have a lot of options

    HBO didn't want Khan (boxing politics) so it was really down to just between Crawford and Bradley.

    Well since I am a boxing geek it does hold merit with me so I like it.

    It's the best fight that could be made at 147 imo.
