    I'm still going to get the fight. It's crazy that they are charging extra for this fight. In the end a bunch of my peeps with get together and watch it and all split it. Throw down on the fight, booze and some pizza will still be less then a night out.

    They're charging extra as an extra "fukk u" to us fans who already waited 5, 4, and 3 yrs too late.

    it's going to be a boring fight, floyd mayweather fights are boring he's going to punch and move and punch and move, and manny doesn't knock people out anymore, going to go to a decision, so whoever the judges decide u want to pay -285 on what 3 people think

    Minimum $100. Maybe $110 for the hd version

    A total slap in the face. Come on guys show your disapproval by NOT paying for it

    I boycott all kinds of businesses...this is a no brainer....

    Things I've never paid for:

    Cable/sat tv

    Ppv

    NFL game(in fact, I only support the Astros financially as far as pro sports go)

    Most everythig made in china.

    I quit eating at most places that are not locally owned.(local = city or state, some US)

    I don't buy beer that is not locally brewed and owned.

    Don't buy 99.999% of what is sold at walmart.

    Only own/would own a few select foreign made autos. Basically if I buy non US its strictly based on specialization/quality, and that goes for a few products.

    I don't pay for movies.

    To sum it up, I pay close attention to where my money is going and who's pocket it will end up in...the real voting system in this world is your wallet. If it doesn't benefit me or my cause, then no money will be allocated...

    ...I didn't even have to think about not paying for this fight...

    $100 is nuts. Doubt I'll order it now. With spending $100+ on food I'll be over $200. Not worth it, IMO. I still work a 9-5. I'm not dripping cash. Ridiculous.

    Wrong. Koed hatton in 2009 and tkoed cotto later that yr. That was 7-8 fights ago and within 6 yrs. Then he fought a bunch of guys with great chins like jmm and bradley twice. Mosley. Clottey. They all have great chins
    He knocked algieri on his ass like 5 times. Eve. Provodnikov with great power only knocked algieri down once.

    Manny has decent power still. U have to look at the opponents. The toughest chins he's ever fought have come since 2006 and he's tkoed and koed quite a few from 06 to 09. He'll touch floyd and floyd will feel it

    eidelon we are splitting hairs. you are right on the last 9 fights part but wrong on the 6 years part. the same year as cotto (2009) he ko'ed hatton in the 2nd round. mayweather needed 10 rds to ko hatton.

    anyhow, look at the list:

    1) algieri was knocked down 5 times that fight
    2) bradley has a great great chin. did you see him fight provodnikov and take everything PLUS the kitchen sink??
    3) rios good chin
    4) JMM great chin
    5) bradley again great great chin
    6) JMM great chin
    7) mosley great chin
    8) marga-cheato very good chin
    9) clottey great chin
    10) cotto great chin and he TKO'ed him

    coach i hope they are not friends.

    - floyd accused manny of being on PEDs

    - manny sued floyd

    - after manny got ko'ed by jmm, floyd kept posting vids of it on social media, over and over.

    - after manny got popped for the tax lien, floyd kept referencing it.


    i don't believe they are friends, coach

    For what it's worth.....was listening to sports radio here in philly & was mentioned that the minimum line of credit at The MGM Grand to secure ringside seats will be $250,000! So if you can't get that line of credit you cannot get seats
