    No you ain't crazy you pretty answered it well but who says it is a success and or not a success?

    How does HBO knows the viewership numbers? for it to be called a success. It's not a PPV sale yet where you can count the revenue.

    But as you said, 24/7 is made to generate HYPE to HELP SELL A FIGHT as you said it is a marketing tool only. They don't generate revenue on that at all as it is cost so how does it become a success?

      I reckon Floyd might do 50/50 if Pac takes the tests without hesitation.

          Whatever the case is, Floyd should just take the goddamned 50/50 split and shut up. $40,000,000 is not enough??!! Isn't he making that same amount to fight Mosley?

              this is a no-brainer. two very well-known american boxers with an HBO 24/7 promotional series fighting on US HBO PPV. can we expect anything less?

                I'm gonna wait until the officals numbers come out but I thought it was at least gonna do 800k if it does 600k-750k that's a flop that means Pacquiao numbers are going down

                  Because people view the show. They see the #s. This is simple, really.

                      mayweather vs. mosley will at least double this pathetic number. mayweather's simply a far bigger draw than pacman
