Where can you watch Mayweather vs Marquez Live tonight? Watching live the Mayweather vs Marquez boxing match gives you more options than just tv.
Normally, watching the boxing match would be a pay-per-view only option. (Mayweather battles Marquez on HBO Pay-Per-View with undercard matches starting at 9 pm. It will cost you $49.95.)
But tonight, you can go see the boxing match at a new offering – your local movie theatre!
Mayweather vs. Marquez will try to reestablish boxing’s presence in U.S. theatres, being broadcast live on 170 movie theatres Saturday. How many fans will go to a movie theatre than opt for the traditional tv option? Insiders aren’t sure. But in 2007, Floyd and De La Hoya set the Pay-Per-View record with 2.44 million. Tonight Floyd wants to prove he is the best draw in the sport, no matter where you watch him.
Mayweather tells press
“I look forward to doing good numbers. And the main thing is, continue to just bring excitement back to the sport. Bring flash back to the sport of boxing and I truly believe I can do that.”
Richard Schaefer, CEO of Golden Boy Promotion, says of Floyd:
“When you have a figurehead that leaves that position, normally you have someone who steps in to fill that position. I believe Floyd Mayweather is the one who can do it with the U.S. domestic Pay-Per-View base”.
Shaefer says of the movie theatre option:
“I always try to see ways we can expand the message in the sport of boxing and increase the distribution. “
Movie tickets reportedly wil run you $15.
