Mayweather-Marquez Ticket Trouble Denied By Schaefer Posted by: Mark Vester on 06-21-2009. By Mark Vester According to Golden Boy Promotions CEO Richard Schaefer, the ticket sales for Floyd Mayweather Jr. vs. Juan Manuel Marquez were strong. Mayweather officially postponed his fight with Marquez last Sunday when he announced that he suffered a rib injury in training. The fight was scheduled to take place on July 18, and the date of September 19 is the new target. Prior to Mayweather's withdrawal, rumors of weak ticket sales were running wild in Las Vegas. To many, Mayweather's withdrawal was validation of the rumors. Schaefer says the fight was moving at a better pace than Pacquiao-Hatton. "I have the reports right in front of me, and there have been $5.5 million in sales already," Schaefer said to the Las Vegas Review Journal. "That's ahead of the pace that Pacquiao and (Ricky) Hatton did at the same time frame. So all that talk (that) the fight isn't selling is a lot of bull. It's all the Floyd haters making stuff up." There were also rumors that Mayweather withdrew from the bout with Marquez in order to target a year-end showdown with Manny Pacquiao. Schaefer denies those rumors as well. He says the fight with Marquez will happen as soon as Mayweather receives clearance by his doctor. "Right now, we're waiting to see what the doctor says," Schaefer said. "But I can tell you Floyd and Marquez will fight sometime this year. Whether it's September, October, November, I don't know."

carquil.... You're the panty-wearing poster, if there is any. All you do is bitch, bitch, bitch about this one guy......You're like some old housewife who feels like the hubby isn't pulling his weight around your little nest. It would be such a good thing for the forum if you kept your relentless nagging at your weekly bridge game with the other forgotten broads.

Mosley is better known to mainstream america than marquez and is not seen as such a huge mismatch in size. people have a sense of what they are getting when they hear FM talking his nonsense. they know he is coward and they are listening to a person in denial of what he is. let the deluded maytags, and intellectually challenged harpies get their panties in a bunch if they want, that is the truth. -- I came I saw and I conquered

Look at the big money he let hiis cowardice sway him away from in second ODLH fight. fights missed and money gone: cotto mosley marge williams berto odlh 2 being conservative and assuming 5 million a fight thats 30 million. And we know he was getting paid more than 5 million for odlh 2, cotto and mosley. those are at least 10 million dollar fights: being ultra conservative. -- I came I saw and I conquered

But since you want to bring your racial and ethnic culture in here, well, ..lol..here you go. Since you don't know shit about boxing like you think you do, your name now is SHITKING!..LOL...believing that ZeroTicket actually hurted his ribs just shows you how little you know about boxing and the shady underbelly of boxing politics. Boxing is first a business and a sport second. NOW, back to boxing. Pacquiao/Hatton was on during a global economic crisis, and he and his opponent are not even from this country. ZeroTicket couldn't muster any ticket sale during the same global economic crisis..lol. Go to other boxing forum and see how many articles that state tickets were slow before the phony injury. They can't even get their story straight, uncle Rog said that ZeroT broke his ribs, Schaefer claim it's only a cartlidge damage..lol. * Is it broken rib or just cartlidge damage, where's the medical proof?..lol * -- Fraud "Zero Ticket Sales" Mayweather. Rib Injury? Nice Try! lol Joshua "Head Nigerian Scammer" Clottey Roy "Original Fraud" Jones Jr. Bernard "Lie To Mama and HGH User" Hopkins Cotto: "Elephant Cajones" Shame "The Cheater & HGH" Mosely Duran: Hands of Stones Margarito: Hands of Plaster Marquez: Back To Begging Pacquiao Roy Jones Lite: Great Waste Less Willing M.

The real question is if ticket sales were "strong" as reported how come they didnt sell out in a very short period of time like most major fights do? -- "Never Die, Never Quit, Never Retreat"

So when is Floyd gonna swallow his pride and fight tough matchups instead of safe fights? His pride is cutting a huge hole into his already depleting pockets. If he was so great he shoulda just came outta retirement and fought Pacman for 40%, knock him out, and shut everyone up. These things could've easily been resovled and his pockets woulda been double the size of what they are now if he just had confidence in himself that he truly is the best. But he don't and because of that he's repeatedly shot himself in the foot and has hurt his financial and boxing status. Pride can be such a terrible thing sometimes.
