Mayweather - JMM: Only 3,000 tickets sold? LOL!

[RRICAN]

that should be an eye opener to floyd, and maybe now he will have to fight real opposition (no disrespect for jmm) top ww's

When Floyd goes on the record to say that he's coming back to steal some more money, It shows he can give 2 ****s about the fans, because the fact is, its our money he'll be stealing. He's not interested in facing the best (within his weight-class), he's only interested in taking low risk/high reward fights. In that case.........*** him!

This is bad news to me. I'm not a fan of Floyd, but this fight deserves better than that in my view. I think JMM is a tough challenger to Floyd. I think he stands a better chance of beating Floyd even more so than Cotto and Clottey. I actually analyze match ups unlike a lot of other people do. That aside, maybe these guys need to be willing to take a pay cut and have the fight off of PPV. But I want to see JMM get this opportunity to fight a big name. Pacquiao got 3 million dollars plus Phillipino TV rights to fight David Diaz. And JMM can't get a little more than that to fight Mayweather? I don't get it. JMM deserves better than what he gets.

I don't think the fans are rooting against this fight because they hate Mayweather, I think it's because they intensely dislike and refuse to support a fight that is going to be non-competitive. They'd prefer to see Mayweather in an even fight, which I understand.

Disliking Mayweather does NOT mean disliking boxing.

Lauging at low boxing ratings is not funny at all...What you gonna say when some UFC skin head mother****er says "hey your P4P best is only sellin 3K...hahahahahh I like UFC and not Im tough!"

LOL! Where are the people who said PBF or JMM were a big draw?

Apparently, after such a high turnout in London, Mayweather could sell out Wembley Arena now.

I'll tell him Manny Pacquiao has never drawn that low an amount of fans to a mega-fight, so I don't know where you're getting your figures from.

Zelenoff can sell more tickets then Mayweather!

Let this be a lesson to the Promoters and Fighters out there.

During times of recession, you need to sell quality. You cannot stuff nonsense down peoples throats because the public are far more buyer beware. The public will buy quality though, and they expect quality for every hard earned dollar.

There is also a lesson for Floyd in all this. The boxing public will more likely throw money your way if you are liked. If you continue to play the villain, they will get tired of it. If you do decide to play the Villain, it will only work if you back it up. Don't talk about being the best if you are not willing to back that **** up.

I'm sure if Mayweather took the fight in Wembely UK it might sell out or at least sell more.

Hey he always said he wanted to fight in the UK doesn't have to be against an English boxer and he also promoted in the UK as well with 3000 turning up to a 200 max gym.

What a JOKE. Wembley holds approx. 100,000 people. Hatton and Calzaghe's biggest fights were around 50,000. Do the math. Barely anyone in England knows who Mayweather is. That is a fact. A few people turning up at an open workout in the biggest and busiest city in England does not constitute a sold out Wembley Arena. Anyone who thinks this is seriously delusional.
