Daniel Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 My buddies are headed down to AC. Apparently. one of the casinos has a 1,000 seat room they are showing the fight. The cover is 30 bucks a head. It appears, they are sold out. Sorry, it offers no advice but, i was just so taken back by the numbers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Many of the casinos are showing the fight, having parties, etc. The #'s for this fight are massive -- record setting, bar far. I think the fight will gross over $300 million.

Daniel Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 my friends and I were talking about this. The over under is 11.5 rounds, I think. I don't really like to stay current on gambling as I am not a fan.. But, he may take some bets for a few "close friends" But, odds are saying essentially, it's going to be a decision aka boring fight. There are two kinds of fights. One where it's about the boxing, the other is about hype surrounding the event. I just don't see it being that good of a fight. A bunch of tight guys, sparring and keeping it safe. But, who knows, maybe someone will come out swinging for the fences. Maybe I convince the Misses to watch it with me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
E.L.A. Posted May 1, 2015 Author Share Posted May 1, 2015 A decision doesn't necessarily mean a boring fight...especially with these two fighters. This has been a long time in the making and both these guys want this one and want it bad. Manny is a warrior. Mayweather too, in a different way, and he has a massive ego. In Mayweather's eyes -- this is the one guy who has stood in his way of truly being the best of all time. I don't know that the over/under is 11 1/2 rounds -- but that's not always reflective of a boring fight. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Can't knock Manny down, but probably out defends him and wins on points. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
