Dan Rafael Chat Wrap 2/27:

Mayweather - Pacquiao news:
- Mayweather-Pacquiao was harder to make than Lewis-Tyson.
- Tickets are not available for Mayweather-Pacquiao yet. They have not done a seating chart or priced seats yet. The seats that are "available" are brokers pre-selling tickets that they hope they can secure tickets (when released) to fill those orders.
- Very likely there will be little to no public sale of tickets for Mayweather-Pacquiao.
- As what usually happens, Mayweather and Pacquiao's camp will be consulted on judges, and then the commission makes the final decision.
- There will be 7 fights on the card, 3 televised on the PPV.
- No confirmation yet if this PPV will be shown in theaters.
- He was told the gloves negotiation was done very easily and early on in the negotiations.
- No word on how much closed circuit tickets will be. Would not be surprised if they were $200. If the closed circuit was as big as it was for Mayweather vs. Hatton, there will be over 30,000 seats sold.
- Believes that fighting each other helps both fighters legacy, even if they lose. See: Hearns, Leonard, Hagler, and Duran. Fight the best and it adds to your legacy.
- Bob Arum and the MGM do not have a good relationship. It was likely one of the issues that had to be overcome in negotiations.
- From those involved, Manny and Floyd meeting at the Heat game wasn't critical to the fight getting made, but it definitely sped the process up.
- Arum and Haymon met face to face at Moonves' house in Beverly Hills. It was critical to getting the fight made. Les Moonves is credited as being the hero in helping get the fight made.

Be the best 140 pounder in the world. and still not make any noise, brehs.

I agree that they are all B-level fighters but Marcos and Khan are B minus and tim and swift are b plus (obviously swift is at a higher level since he sent amir khan brains into the bushes)

Cosign this, however...

whatever Dan says about this fight is with a grain of salt. Then, why the networks had to negotiate as well ? All Moonves did was basically convince Arum they were ready to go and tell him we're the A-side. Dan wrote an article about FLoyd fighting Cotto and was making memes even when FLoyd was on record saying he wants the fight.

I will go with my dude who gave props to Pac's wife and FLoyd for getting things started. Moonves could not force Pac or Floyd to get in the ring without their will. So, I wo9n't say they had 0 to do with the fight
