Whatever...we have all bought worse fights!! This is an historic fight and we will all more than likely jump on the bandwagon the closer it gets to the fight. I'm just hoping that the Pacmonster can pull of the monumental upset!! Go Pac!!
Goldenboy vs p4p #1. Mexican vs The Mexicutioner. DLH last fight (or so he says). David vs Goliath (the intrigue). 2 very exciting fighters. Based on those things, this could very well surpass PBF-DLH. After the success of DLH-PBF I think they will put in even more money in promoting this fight, the intrigue alone amongst the mainstream would probably generate huge numbers. Unlike message boards full of "boxing experts" they will simply read Pac = p4p #1, to them they will see it as a contest of size vs skill and that curiousity alone of how the fight will turn out could really do huge numbers. Im expecting it to surpass PBF-DLH, if not come pretty damm close to 2mil. Gotta remember DLH-Mayorga alone did nearly 1mil buys, Pac-JMM did over 400k buys...together 2mil is not out of the question whatsoever.
I actually think this fight wont break 1 million buys. Pac's ability to sell ppv's isn't too good as shown with the Diaz fight where it didn't break 200,000. I think people are going to see this as too much of a mismatch and pass. It will sell good based on DLH's popularity and Manny's to a much smaller degree.
One of those is my dad. Tried to explain the horrible situation about this fight but he wouldn't listen. He's too much of Pac fan to not watch how this goes down. Anyway, that's good for me actually. Means I don't have to buy the fight and just come over at my dad's and watch there.
I'm not buying but you can bet your sweet ass I'll be watching and cheering for Pac. I never have to buy Oscar fights anyway. My homie is a BIG TIME Oscarsexual.
Sad but true. I'll buy this fight just for the curiosity of how this circus pans out, (with the supreme hope that greedy-assed dela Fishnets gets KTFO or shamed to the absolute horror of millions of his hysterical girly-fans:yep ).
