There was no hype for a Mayweather/Marquez fight prior to the fight being made and this kind of drivel shows GBP trying anything they can to at least garner some level of respectability for it.

It's sad really. Over a million sales? Hilarious.

Spot on mate, the real interest was never in this fight. It's a made up 'megafight' as opposed to a real 'by public demand' fight.

I think this one might end up being a bit embarassing in the end in terms of numbers.
