    Default Slow ticket sales for Mayweather-JMM fight

    Ticket sales for Mayweather-JMM fight is quite slow...

    "
    When Super Fights and/or Mega Fights tickets go on sale we were getting used to the promoter announcing in the first 2 hours that tickets have been “SOLD OUT” but arrangements have been made for closed circuit venues to open up on the night of the fight so everyone will be able to witness the battle.

    No such announcement was made last Friday and it’s highly doubtful we will be receiving one anytime soon or at all for that matter."

    Maybe casual boxing fans are anticipating a boring fight between these 2 masters of the waiting game (master counterpunchers)... A boring tactical chess match in the offering...

    Probably the smart boxing fans are saving their money for the Mayweather vs Pacquiao megafight? How often do the "warm up fights" sell out fast?

    I think PAC vs. PBF is the fight most boxing fans is waiting for... The slow sales of PBF-JMM fight is actually a blessing in disguise since low sales of this PBF-JMM fight will result to the PAC vs. PBF fight a lot easier to make... Why? Because this early PBF said there's no way a 50-50 purse split with PAC is acceptable since PBF is bragging that he's boxing's cash cow and should have a bigger share of the purse... A low ticket and PPV sales of PBF-JMM fight will disprove that PBF is a cash cow and will lower his purse demands for the PAC vs. PBF fight...

    Actually it's better for boxing fans to boycott this PBF-JMM fight... Just sacrifice this fight so that we can possibly have the PAC vs. PBF fight in the future... Are you with me??

    I'm expecting a more known boxing news source will carry this news topic in the coming days...

    Blog or not Would you boycott the PBF-JMM fight for the sake of majority of boxing fans who want the PAC-PBF fight to happen?? ... It sounds greedy but you got to sacrifice sometimes...

    No, the fight should go on whether Golden Boy lose his shirt or not. We need to know how Floyd will fare against the #2 P4P who is supposed to be the second best. Floyd will be forced to make a good impression to get a better bargaining leverage while JMM wants to win badly to have another rematch w/ Pac. We really don't care if Golden Boy lose money on this.
