Yea, I've heard tickets are around $15 but it may vary a little from theater to theater.

Two top ten P4P just not doing it for you?
What the hell are you babbling about?
1. I didn't have to buy that fight cause I was invited to someone's house for that fight
2. Hatton is awful...I mean really bad
3. I will buy Pacquaio - Cotto
4. Anyone who bought that PPV should've taken a fifty dollar bill and burned it....exact same experience

Not really, i wouldn't spend $50 just because 2 opponents are ranked highly on an imaginary list...I'm also not really a fan of either ofthese fighters, although I can understand why people would be, they're both great boxers and counterpunchers (i'm not taking anything away from theirskills or accomplishments)....but this fight really doesn't generate any excitement to me, and I don't think it will be closely contested (like i saidin the other post, i think it'll be similar to dlh-pbf) so that eliminates alot of the suspense that other PPV fights I've purchased in the pasthave....i just wanted to see if people felt the same way....hopefully I'm wrong though, and it'll be something special, but I'll probably justcatch it next Saturday on HBOOriginally Posted by Stringer Bell 32

Na, I feel you
I know for a fact on paper this fight could be a snoozefest but still as a boxing fan you have to watch due to how significant this fight is

Man I had tickets to the JMM vs. Floyd fight but everybody flaked so I sold them. Going to be a very intresting fight IMO I'm wondering what PBF is goingto look like 2yrs away from the ring. JMM is a great boxer but does he have the speed to catch PBF?

Its not about speed its about timing , was Vernon forrest faster than Shane? No , but the jab and timing did him wonders , was JLC faster than Floyd? no butthe pressure and the timing gave floyd fits (JLC should have won) . Rocky Juarez is never getting over the hump he doesnt have that extra gear John will outboxhim .

Last word from Floyd before the fight. He's actually pretty smooth in this video...borderline likable. He's matured very well into playing the villain.

I'm ordering the fight although i think its going to be a landslide in Floyd's favor. If Juan Diaz slightly hurt Marquez in their last fight and we allknow that the baby bull is a soft puncher then Marquez will definitely feel the difference in power once he gets punched by Floyd, and Marquez has been taggednumerous times by Pacquaio.
I see a 116-112 Unanimous Decision for Floyd and it wouldn't surprise me if Floyd would knockout Marquez in the later rounds.
I like the undercard of Rocky Juarez and Chris John i felt that John deserved the win their 1st fight it should be a good fight.
Katsidis is also a good action fight.
Is Zab Judah still on the undercard?

Its just that sometimes Floyd fools around too much and lets some of his opponents tire themselves out, and he takes a break.
Such as in the Floyd vs Jose Luis Castillo in the 1st fight Floyd was all defense in some rounds and let JLC punch himself out, but Floyd did the shoulder rolland everything but he still lost those rounds which made their fight close and controversial.
i just see Floyd letting JMM get tired out while working on his defense in a couple rounds.

People keep saying this but PBF starts out really slow too and with the added ring rust I could see him winning the first 3 or 4 rounds.
I don't see JMM getting tired out unless his age starts to show in this fight, he's always had great stamina even while getting hit. Re-watching hisfight with Diaz though, he took way too many punches and can't let that happen again. Bad hands or not PBF has underrated pop behind his punches. Onemore thing, if it comes down to the scorecards...it's a GBP fight...you know how that could get messy...
