    I like how I am a nuthugger even though I prefaced my post with "I want to see an accurate source"
    What do Mayweather's balls taste like ? And before you respond, David Haye's are elegant.
    whoa! wait a second.... Haye has balls

    Haha

I thought the PPV would do well because of the buzz amongst everyone but not that well. You haters can't say anything about the man. He's proved the money part, now he's just gotta fight and beat Pac or Mosley (I think both fights will happen honestly) to become the greatest fighter of our generation (if he isn't already).

    I don't believe these numbers coz I work in a liquor store where most of the ppv buyers stopped by first before the fight. I just don't see the buzz before & after the fight. More than half of the regular ppv buyers that I know told me they didn't ordered it.

    yes of course.. thats it
    You think yanks bought the tickets supporting him for the Hatton and De La Hoya fights huh ? It was cuz of the opponents. Floyd can't sell shiit.
    funny how the ppv sales of Hatton and DLH went down after those two fights, even if they had a very sellable fighter in Pacquiao included

    So what you're saying is Marquez is a bigger draw then Mayweather and is the reason if this PPV gets 1 million buys?

    lol much as I want to know the numbers, it is even more fun watching the speculation around it. I had 2 friends buy it for their first ever PPV sports buy. so it prob. like 1.4 mill. Give or take a million.

    I just hope it beat out that UFC card and shut Dana White up about boxing being dead and Floyd not having drawing power.

    I need confirmation as well. But I do know Iole has never been shy about criticizing Mayweather in the past. i seriously doubt he would lie or post false information that would some how benefit him

    I thought I did post here, so either my post has been deleted or like a dumbass, I forgot to press "submit reply" and closed the window.

    Personally, I think that 1.6 millions is overspeculation, especially when the only person saying it is an analyst from Yahoo who isn't that much of an insider. Pure speculation and I doubt Mayweather did drag so much attention for 2 reasons:

    1) the crowd was more or less 80% Marquez supporter at the fight.
    2) they had to postponed the fight because it wasn't selling enough. I can imagine and agree that the 24/7 did a lot to boost the interest but from there to make it a total flop to the biggest success thinkable... I really doubt so.

    My personal pick would be around 500 000 buyers, not much than that. WE will have the official numbers in the meantime but I am absolutely certain, personally, that the number will convince anybody that Mayweather doesn't deserve half of the purse, especially when Manny (which I am not a fan, by the way) is the one dragging audience and attention.

    UFC is followed by those who watch a combination of WWE, jackie chan and more often than not people who take themselves way too seriously. How many times have i read stuff along the lines of on a UFC forum...

    "i train for MMA and could easily kill a man with 1 finger to the temple"

    Boxing is a mans sport. If you like beer, women and have a large social circle of friends you tend to be a boxing fan. If however you find yourself spending your friday evenings online chatting about the latest episode of dragonball z and can list at least 20 shaolin movies then your a faggy UFC wannabe!!!!!!

    Hahaha! That post made me laugh.

    Where do I fall? I don't like beer but would say I like women and have a fairly big social circle. I used to watch Dragonball Z, WWE and could probably list about 7-8 martial arts movies

    Hate UFC but love boxing...and could probably kill a man with a whole hand to the temple after a few attempts.
