Can't beleive it! (Mayweather - Marquez PPV Numbers)

[Mao's Favourite Starling]

It's actually official here's the ESPN commentry on it and a Mayweather Brian Kenny Interview! Floyd appears to be a changed man! I am now officially a huge Floyd fan.

People will hate on him for beating up the smaller Marquez but Marquez will be grateful it the most exposue and money he has ever recieved!

He comes across as very charming in that interview.

That's exactly what he was like when he came to London & pretty much what all who've met him off-camera have said. I like the fact he basically said his mum told him off & he has rightfully apologized to Emmanuel Steward.

As a side note, the PPV figure does not include the cinema numbers. The thing I enjoy most about this is the thought of Dana White & Bob Arum being genuinely miserable for a few days.

Spot on!! I am no Mayweather lover by any stretch, but I heard he was going to be on SSN so got down there.

I missed him going in but when he came out he had time for everybody! I got a pic with him and he signed a knackered old glove I had in my car!

The 'money' persona is just that, a persona! I'm glad he seems to have reigned it in a bit though, because from meeting him in the flesh he seems a v nice guy!

Compare that to the Hatton-Pac gig at the Trafford Centre, I was there for that too.

Back-stage as they came off, Pac signed a few autographs for his phillipino fans but no more than 5 mins! Hatton just walked past us all and straight up the stairs

One lad in a motorised wheelchair had been at the front of the barrier for over an hour and a half, and didn't even see the 2 guys on the stage because he had a glove he wanted signed by Ricky. Me and my mate had clocked him whilst they were on stage and he just sat and waited.

Whilst the dust was settling onstage (HBO/Sky etc interviews) we made our way round to the autograph area where this lad had sat for god knows how long!

Hatton walked towards and then past us and all the while this lad was shouting RICKY!!! but he didn't give 2 fucks!!!


Some 'man of the people!'
