So, it happened like they said it would, but Marquez gave his all, and that’s why people love him. This fight was electric, though, with Mayweather desperate to avoid Marquez’s lethal blows by keeping his left shoulder raised and indeed rapidly withdrawing from the fray when Marquez looked to be weighing up a big one. That said, Floyd was amazing, as ever. He stood before the Mexican with his arms down throughout the fight, mocked him with funny faces, and basically ground his down with some serious left hooks and relentless jabs that were both persistent and powerful. The following weekend saw Latino hero Chris Arreola take on Vitali Klitschko, with Arreola’s corner throwing in the towel, against the wishes of Arreola. Klitschko tickets have always sold well, for both of the Klitschko brothers, and this one was a telling rampage from the Ukrainian powerhouse.
Next up is the most-awaited of the year, the Cotto v. Pacquiao fight that threatens to blow all the rest away in 2009. Pacquiao must already have set his sights on a Mayweather date, but Cotto will be looking to stop him and be in the frame himself. Cotto Pacquiao is the one they’re all waiting for now, so make sure you have your Cotto Pacquiao tickets in hand in time. We did a recent comparison on here between Mayweather-Marquez tickets and Cotto-Pacquiao tickets and it was determined that the Cotto fight sold out right away, in comparison to the Mayweather fight, which didn’t sell quite as swiftly. The fact is, Cotto and Pacquiao both sell tickets in huge numbers, and when these two face each other there is gonna be hell to pay. Both fighters are ready and so is the crowd. There is little chance of finding a Pacquioao ticket today, unless you are lucky enough to stumble onto the site we know and trust. Check out what we have left – it isn’t much! – and make a date with boxing destiny. Cotto Pacquiao is the fight of 2009 and you can be there in the flesh! Can you seriously resist, if you really are a boxing fan?

When Floyd “Pretty Boy” Mayweather steps back into the ring in a couple of weeks, the speculation over whether he is giving himself an easy ride will be settled once and for all. Another factor that tells us something about the significance – or perceived significance – of this bout is the price of Mayweather v. Marquez tickets; when compared to the upcoming Cotto-Pacquiao tickets, there is a distinct price difference. Mayweather v. Marquez tickets, though a hugely anticipated bout, seems not to be currently selling as fast as Cotto v. Pacquiao tickets. This is most likely due to the fact that the Mayweather Marquez bout was postponed; the pressure to buy boxing tickets was relieved slightly, but it looks like a lot of boxing fans might be disappointed if they leave it to long.
Golden Boy Promotions have referred to the face-off as “the biggest fight of this year”, but the Cotto people might have something to say about that. Cotto-Pacquiao ticket sales for their November 14 fight at same venue look somewhat more vigorous and many are saying that this reflects the greater importance of the Cotto fight. Tickets for Pacquiao vs. Cotto fight have been on public sale since August 17, 2009, and have been selling like crazy in the run-in to the big one at the MGM Grand. The entire arena was declared sold out by promoter Bob Arum within a few hours; advance bulk orders placed by the Vegas casino operators meant that the general public experienced severely diminished numbers of tickets being available. Mayweather’s nickname, “Money” Mayweather, looks to be threatened ahead of their fight, but many of those in the know are laughing – they know it was the postponement that caused the lull in Mayweather tickets sales, and they warn that a last minute tickets stampede will mean peoples’ complacency could be their worst enemy. You read it here first.
There are more arguments about the ticket prices. Mayweather v. Marquez tickets are currently going for around $4,500 to $5,000. Cotto v. Pacquiao tickets are currently avaliable at around $10,000. Skeptics claim that this further proves the greater importance of the Cotto bout, but there’s another way to see it; if indeed the Cotto Pacquiao fight was sold out because of casino operators buying up blocks of tickets, then Cotto tickets will be scarcer and anyone knows that this will drive up their price. If the Mayweather Marquez tickets have suffered a lull in sales due to the injury to Mayweather, then more Mayweather tickets being available means ticket prices themselves will be down. These two fights have been drawn into a strange competition, which is only a part of a larger situation that involves UFC 103 tickets; the Mayweather Marquez fight will be staged at the exact same time as UFC 103 in Dallas, Texas. The two events have been subject to a crazy wrangle that means the TV networks are now fighting over who will draw the most viewers for the spectacles. At the same time, the Mayweather Marquez tickets sales and the UFC 103 tickets sales might be affected by the coincidence. Such is life….such is the fight game…

A novel contest between boxing and UFC fighting has sprung up ahead of the much-anticipated bout between Mayweather and Marquez. The Mayweather Marquez boxing fight will happen on the same Saturday night as UFC 103: Franklin v. Belfort, at the same time. This has got the TV companies in quite a state! No-one saw it coming, but competition for viewership between UFC 103 and the Golden Boys Promoted main event between Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Juan Marquez is set to heat up the airwaves. The two sets of promoters have now been plunged into a face-off as they fight to convince fight fans to watch their show instead of the other guys. It’s hard to believe anyone would ever put UFC above boxing, but that’s just my (heavily biased) opinion. What would you buy, Mayweather Marquez tickets or UFC 103 tickets? Spike TV have now announced that they will be screening an hour (8 fights) of the UFC 103 undercard commercial free prior to the pay per view portion of the event kicking in. In response, Golden Boy has sanctioned the Mayweather-Marquez card to be screened in 170 movie theatres across the country.

The press release reads as follows:

“We are extremely pleased to welcome Fathom [Events] into the Golden Boy family of sponsors as their interest in the Mayweather vs. Marquez mega-fight is another indication of the sheer magnitude of the fight itself,” said Richard Schaefer, CEO of Golden Boy Promotions. “Having the fight in high definition in movie theaters throughout the country is unprecedented and gives boxing fans another outlet to watch the compelling action of a big-time fight.”

Not since the golden era of the early 80s has there been a boxing fight screened live in movie theaters. The 1980 bout between “Sugar” Ray Leonard and Roberto Duran was the last one, and it received massive attention. This is all so much words, though, if you are a true boxing fan and you really want to be in Vegas for Mexican Independence Day, when Mexican Marquez takes on American Mayweather. The entire city will be consumed by the fight and its significance, and to actually have Mayweather tickets for the Marquez fight will be a dream come true for some, but not for all. After all, a night at the movies costs almost as much as the real thing, so why accept substitutes? It’s gonna get very interesting as the night of the two big fights draws near; both of these fight cards are very impressive, but for me there’s only one winner: Mayweather v. Marquez. The reason? The winner gets to fight Manny Pacquiao – and let’s not forget that Cotto v. Pacquiao tickets are also selling well right now. Gee, the world’s a great place when there are some killer fights on the horizon, huh?

So, you’ve got your Mayweather tickets and you’ve booked the hotel room in Vegas. The question now remains: Who’s gonna win? Some say Mayweather, some say Marquez, but one thing’s for sure: It’s gonna be one heck of a fight, and could well go the distance. Mayweather owns the most rapid fists in the fight game, but Marquez has the most accurate. Mayweather has the moves, the power and the big single punch to knock people out, even good boxers and clever old dogs like Marquez. But Marquez is not without movement – in his case the movement of an intelligent fighter who anticipates his opponent’s game-plan on the fly and then effectively sticks a spanner in the works with devastating effect. Mayweather is not without his own skills in that department though; blessed with raw strength and a sinuous upper body flexibility, Mayweather is able to pull off the most amazing dodges while sizing up his foe’s weak spots and degree of tiredness. He seems to actually gain energy as the fight goes on, and this is a nightmare for tiring opponents. When you buy tickets to Mayweather Marquez, you buy tickets to the unknown. That’s why Mayweather v. Marquez tickets are selling so fast now. Just like those Pacquiao v. Cotto tickets everyone’s talking about, this fight is really an open question mark, and both sides are well represented.

Some are saying that Mayweather is suffering from “ring rust”, even more so now the fight has been postponed. It will be almost two years since he fought a real fight when he finally goes up against the mighty Mexican, and Marquez, wily fox that he is, will use this for all it’s worth against him, switching his own game plan and upping the energy level at unexpected moments, for which he is famous. One thing is for sure; Marquez better have some serious intent behind those blows, because Mayweather’s “Pretty Boy” nickname is nothing to do with his willingness to stand up and take a punch. He can roll with the dangerous swingers, tuck his chin down deep to avoid the jabs and uppercuts, and all the while those eyes and that brain never stop working. Marquez knows all this and more, of course, but whether this will help him as the fight goes on is anybody’s guess right now. I just wanna grab my Mayweather v. Marquez tickets and be there when the bell goes and these top dogs step up!

Marquez is also the master of the counter punch. he can hurt with both hands, as Juan Diaz discovered to his surprise at the end of their fight earlier this year. Diaz was knocked out by a vicious Marquez combo, a trademark series of disorienting smashes that saw him on the canvass before he even knew he was there. Marquez is confident of a victory in Vegas, but Mayweather will not hear of it. And then there are the critics, those who insist that this is a mere stop-gap for Mayweather before he finally gets the big one against Pacman. Then there are those who think it will be quite another story; a showdown not between Mayweather and Pacman but between Marquez and Pacquiao. Either way, it will be a hell of a thing. Marquez seems like the underdog, but there are a few variables in his favor. One is the rib injury sustained by Mayweather that caused this fight to be postponed. A rib injury can be a recurring thing if not allowed time to heal, and only nature will show us if this fight has been re-scheduled correctly. Another is the fact that the two fight on Mexican Independence Day; Vegas will be packed with Marquez’ fellow countrymen, and they’ll all be wanting their boy to get a piece of the Pretty Boy.  Add it all up and you will see that this fight really is a trip into the unknown. Marquez is no underdog, and Mayweather is probably aware of that. Grab your Marquez Mayweather tickets and watch a night of boxing you will quite simply never forget.

I’m a huge fan of Pacquiao – I’m the first to admit – but there’s something about Cotto that intrigues me. Cotto v. Pacquiao tickets are selling fast largely due to the respect Cotto commands. The guy seems to have been around forever, smashing people up in the ring, that you simply have to respect him. And he looks the part, too, just like Pacquiao. I cannot wait to see who comes out on top when these two hit the ring and start in on each other. Even without a title to fight for, this fight is between two of boxing’s most unpredictable fighters. When Pacman battered De La Hoya nobody expected it, but he came out and simply destroyed a boxer everyone at least suspected had half a chance of winning. The phenomenal Filipino won’t be taking this one lying down, that’s for sure. But neither will Cotto, which is why it is so eagerly anticipated. It would be nice to be alive to see anyone take his seventh weight class title, but Pacquiao deserves it more than most. Like any true athlete, you know that Cotto will be trying to prevent that from happening with every fiber of his being here, and Vegas is the place to be come November 14. Cotto-Pacquiao fight tickets are everyone’s dream, definitely mine, and who would ever turn down the chance to be ringside at the MGM Grand for this one?

Promoter Bob Arum, who has both boxers in his Top Rank stable, has insisted the decision to go ahead with this fight has always been “up to the fighters”. Arum certainly won’t be losing any sleep over the prospect of two of his boys going toe-to-toe,especially one that has generated so much interest and seems to have no anticipated outcome. Pacman is still the undisputed top pound-for-pound boxer in the world, but Cotto doesn’t seem to have any regard for that. Trainer Roach is now concerned wth ensuring Pacquiao keeps out of Cotto’s long reach and iron hands. Many have said Pacman lacks the “sand” to stand up to a real punch from Cotto, but with his speed and explosive combos, it is hoped Pacquiao will produce the goods and land one on Cotto that puts him out of action. It’s a tough one to call, but I will be surprised if this happens. After all, wasn’t Cotto one of the people who openly criticized the decision to go ahead with the De La Hoya v. Pacquiao fight? On what grounds, you might well ask: On the grounds that Pacman wasn’t big enough, that he lacked the chin to deal with De La Hoya’s superior weight. That claim now looks laughable, following Pacman’s clinical and animal destruction of De La Hoya. Is Cotto worried that such a turnaround might happen to him, too? Freddie Roach says that Pacquiao doesn’t just have the chin, but that Pacman will run rings round Cotto, so long as he can stay out of the way of the big punches Cotto is known to be capable of.

“Manny has a really good chin because he has a big heart. Of course Cotto’s power is a major concern for me but I really think that we will have no problems. I’m training Manny not to get hit,” Roach recently said. “Manny has always wanted to fight Floyd Mayweather Jr,” Roach added. “The Mayweather fight got delayed because of injury and Manny needed a fight around year’s end. After watching the [Cotto-Clottey] fight Manny told (Bob) Arum that he could beat Cotto,” said Roach.

Roach has been spending his days studying Cotto’s style, just as he so effectively did before the Hatton fight. The Bostonian Roach knows that his fighter’s speed is a valuable weapon against Cotto, and he has been keeping his eye on Cotto’s previous success against similarly fast opponents. “I have already watched several hours of Cotto’s fights. I have been concentrating on how well he did against Shane Mosley. How he neutralized Shane’s speed. Yes, we will have a great game plan for Cotto,” Roach revealed.

Cotto is probably taking all this in stride. The Puerto Rican is made of the right stuff, and that is why Cotto v. Pacquiao tickets are selling so well. Cotto versus Pacquiao, folks, it is being billed as a bigger, more interesting (and obviously more consequential) bout than the Mayweather-Marquez one. Who do you think will come out on top in this, the biggest bout in a big boxing year? Write in and let me know.

The big news this week is that the year of great boxing just got greater; Pacquiao v. Cotto tickets are now on sale, and the boxing public are snapping them up. There’s a limited number of tickets available for this fight, with many already being spoken for by boxing officionados and Top Rank customers. Pacquiao versus Cotto was always going to represent the very pinnacle of boxing at this weight, and the way the tickets are moving is a testament to that.

Pacquiao is the reigning junior welterweight champ following his under two round knockout of Ricky Hatton in Las Vegas last May. Pacquiao’s trainer Freddie Roach – himself an ex-boxer who well understands the grueling demands of the sport – covets the title Cotto holds for one very good reason: A win would mean Pacquiao had then held world titles in a record seven weight divisions: Welterweight, junior welterweight, lightweight, junior lightweight, featherweight, junior featherweight and flyweight. That is one heck of an achievement in today’s tough boxing jungle.

Cotto is known to be hesitant to offer the title for grabs, being under his weight class’s limit of 147 pounds. If Cotto was heavier than the welterweight max limit, the fight would be fought as a non-title fight, and the whole Cotto v. Pacquiao tickets rush would not be as fevered. But this is the real deal and these two terrors are ready to go tooth and claw to prove who’s the boss. Cotto should not let the nonsense with the belt interfere with his preparation for this fight with Pacman, that is for sure. He mustn’t listen to the nay-sayers and those who insist he simply gives up the belt. If Cotto really decides to fight – to defend the title – Pacquiao will have all the pressure on him, because in essence he will be the one who is losing it. It’s there, dangling like a fat worm on a hook, and either fighter has the skill and power to make it their own. That’s why this fight is such a good one, and why Pacquiao Cotto tickets are selling up a storm. Many are now saying that the Cotto v. Pacman fight is the fight of the year, even more so than the Mayweather Marquez fight. I might be tempted to agree, but Mayweather Marquez is also looking very tasty.

The much-awaited Mayweather Marquez tickets rush has been stilled momentarily; Floyd Jr. has injured his ribs in training and the fight has now been postponed until further notice. Both fighters are said to be extremely disappointed by this, and so are boxing fans the world over. One thing is for sure; the claims that Marquez wasn’t a fit opponent for Floyd are now dashed, as it is obvious that Mayweather wants to be absolutely positive that he can do the job when the two great boxers finally go at it later this year. The fact is, Marquez’s routine has now been interrupted and he is going to have to draw out his plans. Sustaining fighting fitness is never easy, and once the exact date of the postponement is known the mighty Mexican can put his shoulder to the wheel once again.

Mayweather boxing tickets always fly off the shelves. Marquez knows he will receive a well-deserved payday when the two hit the canvass. But a postponement like this can offset many aspects of the training routine. Marquez has it in him to deliver the goods, as much as any before him, and Mayweather will be keeping one eye on the Mexican’s camp now, as the two reshuffle their priorities in time for the real thing.

Arguments now rage over the way this one will turn out. Some say that Marquez’s intelligence is going to be too much for Mayweather, and others say that the younger, faster Mayweather will destroy Marquez. One thing is for sure, this postponement will merely serve to whip up even more furore over the impending duel and that’s never a bad thing in boxing. Stay tuned for the news as it happens. This fight isn’t over and it will happen…we can’t wait till it does.

Floyd Mayweather Jr. unleashed a scathing verbal attack on Manny Pacquiao’s reputation this week, when he declared the Filipino fighter was “overrated” and that the media had played up Pac-Man’s abilities. Mayweather’s last bout, against England’s Ricky Hatton, was dubbed “Undefeated”, and it was the American fighter (39-0, with 25 Knockouts) who emerged from that scrap with his reputation intact. Hatton, on the other hand, was beaten fair and square. After Pacquiao’s recent demolition job on the Hitman, the press have clamored to report on Pacquiao’s strength and ability. Mayweather is tiring of the media love-affair.

“They forget that when I fought de la Hoya, I was in my 30s and he was in his 30s, but when I beat him—they say he was over the hill, but all of a sudden, when Pacquiao fights him, they say ‘Oh man, we can’t believe what just happened.’ Ya’ll just said he was over the hill, which one is it?”, Mayweather asked BoxingScene.com’s Mark Vester.

Mayweather also remarked on his 10th round defeat of Ricky Hatton in December 2007. Mayweather tickets sold handsomely for that fight, as they are doing now for the upcoming fight with Marquez. The “Battle of East and West” between Pacman and Hitman also sold tons of boxing tickets, but Mayweather is confident that most people would rate him higher than Pacquiao, if only the media wouldn’t insist on forcing their favorite onto the public. Manny Pacquiao smashed Hatton in the second round, but Mayweather insists that this means nothing when comparing Pacman to himself, despite the media taking it as a measure of Pacquiao’s superiority.

“I beat Ricky Hatton two years ago when he was an undefeated fighter and I dominated. He was finished after that. He was already finished before the fight with Manny Pacquiao, but Pacquiao beats him and you say he’s the best,” Floyd pointed out. He also stated that Pacquioa’s victory wouldn’t have been so resounding if Hatton had taken the advice of his trainer, Floyd Mayweather Senior.

“He didn’t listen to my father in the corner. If he did, it would have been a different fight,” Floyd Jr. said. Floyd Mayweather, Sr. trained Hatton for what was dubbed the “Battle of East and West” but it all came to nought when Hatton’s style was expertly analyzed and taken apart by the Pacquiao camp.

All this fighting talk comes ahead of the Mayweather Marquez bout in July at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, and only then will we know how good Mayweather still is. The problem for Floyd Jr. is that he is in a lose-lose situation; if he destroys an in-form Marquez, everyone will say Marquez was an easy touch for a comeback fight. If he is beaten by Marquez, people will know that Floyd really did go out on a limb, but his comeback bid will be in tatters. One thing’s for sure, those Mayweather v. Marquez tickets are gonna be worth serious money once the bell rings on July 18 and two of the best fighters in the world meet in the middle of the ring…

There are people who think that this fight is a foregone conclusion – like some of the guys who’ve left comments on this website. Those people are not real boxing fans, they don’t feel the sharp anticipation in the air and the uncertainty that top-level boxing brings. The more people choose to watch this on Pay-Per-View, the better, because Mayweather v Marquez fight tickets are not gonna be easy to find come July 18, when they’re packing into the MGM Grand, to see if Mayweather can still do the trick after an absence from the ring. There will be boxing fans there simply baying for blood, and others just massively curious to see if Marquez can outfox the powerful Mayweather. Floyd claims that he has been working out some new moves while he’s been away from the fight game, including a new approach to the modern body-jabbing that has become so commonplace. Mayweather is quick to regain his arrogance of old, when he says “I am boxing”, but one man refuses to believe that, and that man is Juan Manuel Marquez.

“He seems like a nice guy, but every once in a while, his ego comes out,” Marquez observed recently. “I’ve always said that where there’s no risk, there’s no reward, so when Golden Boy asked me ‘Juan, do you want to fight Floyd?’ I immediately said ‘yes, let’s do it, no problem.’ I don’t like easy fights, and this means too much for my career and my life for me to turn it down. I don’t like to talk much outside the ring; I’d rather talk in the ring with my fists. I always prepare myself for victory – he’s not a machine, he’s a human being and we’re coming to win on July 18th.”

If you have something to say about the outcome of this fight, leave a comment here and it will be published. We publish all comments, within reason, because we encourage an open forum for discussion of the big fights, and this one is a biggie, believe me. The Hatton Pacquiao debacle was a damp squib, a nothing, a non-starter, but Mayweather v. Marquez is set to be proper fireworks. 2009 has proved to be an interesting year for boxing, with some fights’ hyperbole far outweighing the fights themselves, but we have seen some scorchers, and Marquez has certainly featured. This week, British boxer Amir Khan announced ahead of his bout with Andreas Kotelnik that he wanted to take on Hatton, Pacquiao and Mayweather – not simultaneously, we hope! The stage is now set for even more fun and games. Khan might stand a chance against Hatton, yes, but Mayweather and Pacquiao, both would eat Khan alive. Khan v. Kotelnik tickets are selling well, and Amir’s sensational statement probably hasn’t hurt that. But back to reality: Whoever wins this epic Marquez-Mayweather bout is surely gonna fight Manny Pacquiao, and that, my friends, is gonna be Roman candles all night long!
