Yo again this is like the superbowl of boxing
Could you imagine if they did a promo during the superbowl
they may have doubled whatever revenue they generated for this fight
but as far as the fight is concerned, its whatever
you are not going to satisfy ANYONE in this fight, regardless of the outcome
Mayweather win, oh manny was over the hill, he didn't face the pacquiao that was at his best (which was after cotto)
If somehow Pacquiao pulls a W out of his ass, they'll be like oh but mayweather was past his prime, you beat a 38 year old mayweather
However you want to spin this fight, bragging rights don't exist for this fight
Probably for those investors, promoters and maybe mayweather by finally saying he took care of pacquiao and he got the biggest purse in the sport's history
Either way, this fight is finally happening and as a boxer, and a boxing fan
Thank ? it is -

if kahn was smart he'll fight kell brook asap n get that ibf title after floyd snatches mannys wbo he might want to unify the belts n retire undisputed so kahn might get a shot that way

They're creating a special wbc belt for the fight
in other words - more sanction fees in their pockets and confusion for the fans

VL – When the fight ends, who do you envision will be one standing with his arm raised?
Provodnikov – I cannot answer how I think this fight will end except to tell you that It will either be him or me that gets hurt and probably hurt very badly. I understand this and have come to accept that I might not be able to walk out of the ring on my own. That’s just one reality. I accept his challenge because it’s in my nature to do this and take this risk. I am confident in myself and my ability. My punches are shorter and faster than his. That’s my plus. I will keep this fight in short distance and catch him.
Interview with Provodnikov. Good read. @ the bolded. This ? is ready to die in that ring with Matthysse. Shows the level of respect he has for Matthysse punching power. -
Yo GGG is trolling Cotto in hopes he fights him because of it. I hope that ? work too haha I'd love to see that fight. -
Mayweather Sr. newest poem lol
People's been sayin' all along that Floyd didn't wanna fight
But they will all see on that night
Floyd is guaranteed to excite, ignite, and rewrite history
There will be no question or mystery
Manny might have lost his way
After sleeping on the canvas the other day
My son's future is very bright
Manny's looks more like night night

wtf is this -
I thought you was a Cotto fan -
I'm a boxing fan first ? , not a boxer fan first like yo ass lol -
Aight so the same way u said before that mayweather shouldn't have to fight 154 lber's who blow up fight night, neither should cotto lol
this fight make no sense for cotto -
Cotto gets a voluntary defense first so its more than likely going to be Bradley
-
Canelo is boxing -
You ain't going have a choice but to watch it on PPV
The actual event not even for boxing fans really
These ? making sure they break the revenue record
Look at this pessimistic ass point of view.
Even if after the tickets Floyd, Manny and Arum hold for themselves are all bought by scalpers at face value ? the record is going to be broken. So that ? you saying doesn't affect fans getting tickets or not.
Floyd, Manny nor Arum gets any money off the resale mark-up the scalpers put on the tickets once they get them and put them on ? like stubhub. So once the tickets are bought by whom ever the record gets broken.
I have 3 shots of getting tickets for face value or close to face value before I even have to think about buying a scalpers ticket.
I'm just hoping one of those shots works out in my favor. -
Bruh I ain't even read past the 1st paragraph
The tickets are not available to the public
That's all that needs to be said
Face value what they charging ain't worth it -

How you know the bold for a fact?
That is your opinion -
Besides all your negativity ? I have a great reason to think positive.
At 12:01 this morning weed became legal in my city ? all ? you talking!!! -
? Cotto is the MAN at 160 after beating Martinez. Period. Newsflash ? : Mayweather already fought two 154 lber's who blew up in weight on fight night. Like I said, boxing fan first.Aight so the same way u said before that mayweather shouldn't have to fight 154 lber's who blow up fight night, neither should cotto lol
this fight make no sense for cotto
You ? is pig headed as ? . Clearly I'm not talking about what best for the fighter. I shouldn't have to explain that as a fan o would love to see GGG vs Cotto, and Mayweather vs GGG, to boot. ? what you talking about.

@wall on that sauce today
watching cotto die in the ring aint good for boxing, its good for no one but GGG
were it to come to fruition, of course I would watch the massacre. -

When I said I would love to see Mayweather go out against GGG, you ? were offended I suggested they fight -
? you forgot I ended up saying I would be in favor of that fight as well, just to see if Mayweather could pull it off.
