This fight should be on a Sunday around 6:30 PM on the east coast. The prelims would start at 4PM with the main event starting after 6:30. The pay per view numbers would be giant and dwarf any pay per view ever for a boxing match. The casual boxing fans in the east like myself will never buy a fight that begins after 11PM even if it is fought on a Saturday. You'll also get non fight fans to pony up the pay per view price which is going to be at least $80 if the fight is marketed like the Super Bowl is. Boxing will never have a better chance to become a top sport again unless the casual fan is brought back into the mix.
