    Might as well move on to the next... You'll actually get a reaction from those guys. You've stayed off my Ignore list simply bcuz of the Floyd Grapedrank Jr. comment. :thumbsup

    Most people believe casual fans make up the majority of PPV buys... Casual fans see an undefeated fighter who dominates his opponents taking on another champion who's knocked down all competition... **** will sell if all of ESB boycotts the fight, just how it is.. And it's not a shitty fight...

    And yes, Floyd's not fighting Martinez bcuz the risk/reward is not good enough for him. I ask you this though, who out there is a good opponent for Floyd? Martinez and Pac? So if he fought those two within a years time, who else should he fight after? Does he get a pass to fight lesser fighters after he pleases you, or should he retire since it's no real challenges in your opinion?

    I'm buying, but I haven't decided whether to go to the theatre, the bar, or a fight party?:think

    The best thing whenever I purchase a Mayweather fight is my whole family and relatives(im filipino) just comes to watch to diss and criticize Floyd, lol.

    I believe in a fighter fighting the best possible option. Now don't get me wrong. I understand the risk reward thing and I am not hating on floyd for being smart. What I am saying is it is up to the fans to make the risk/reward thing work in our favor. Stop rewarding fighters for not taking risk.

    I would like to see Floyd fight Martinez and pacquiao. After that who knows. if one of those fights is close then a rematch would be in order or maybe retirement or maybe an easy fight to get back in the groove if he was to lose. The point is Ortiz is not a fight the fans wanted but we are still paying for it. It's like you order an extra large pizza with pepperoni and sausege, the guy shows up at your house with a small plain and still wants you to pay for what you asked for.

    Sadly boxing fans are really hungry so we always eat the damn cheese pizza. We don't get 5 games a week like baseball fans or football fans. We are willing to eat **** and the fighters know it and exploit it.

    its the exact same thing for Pacquiao. No matter who Pacquiao fights, Filipinos will buy and watch.

    Ortiz is a risk though... Honestly any fighter, let along a champion, is a risk.. Might not be a big risk to Floyd, but it's surely a risk.

    So basically after Floyd fought those two, he should retire because that's the only two fights YOU want to see? Okay. I understand the point of your thread, but I don't think anyone but Floyd haters won't buy this fight. It honestly is a good card, including the main event. If fans didn't want to buy it, they wouldn't.. At least anyone with common sense... I don't hear anyone saying they're buying the fight bcuz it's what's available... People actually want to see this PPV.

    Racist, nah I say more of stereotype... Tasteless, ehh... Funny, the **** was when I first read it. Show's what kind of person I am though, one that doesn't take what's said on a boxing forum to heart. Some of the **** you say is funny, just don't expect the back and forth from me... Continue to push their buttons though, you and Leon have good back and forths. It's all good when it's a back and forth thing ****ing around. :lol: :thumbsup

    buying it is the only option, streaming golden boy pay per views is hard because they usually employ people to take down the sites and they shut down the streams. it's pretty much impossibly to get a good link of a golden boy ppv.
