If Pac vs Floyd does 4mill buys, is $100m reasonable?

    Mayweather's bad reputation sells the fight--people want to see him get a loss on his perfect record. If Mayweather puts out a lot of videos bragging, insulting, calling himself the best during the months before the fight, we could see some monster PPV numbers.

      I don't think this fight will surpass Oscar/Floyd. This Pac/Floyd fight has become a circus now. I think everyday it goes w/o this fight being signed, the more and more people just won't care. I think it'll do about 1.5-2.0 millies, top.

            Only 1 fight EVER has done more than 2 mill. That was Oscar vs Mayweather (2.4 mil) and the vast majority of those buys were from Oscar and that was when the economy was great and online streams didn't even exist.

            Now that we in a recession and boxing streams are easily accessable the most a Pacquiao Mayweather fight can do is 2.5 mil. 4 mill will never happen. It also wouldn't hurt to throw in some Mexicans that can draw on the undercard like Chavez or Alveraz vs a big name opponent.

              You would gain all that interest back and more after 24/7 or 360 and all the hype and promotional tools and the **** talking.

                  100 mill for 45 minutes of work in the ring? I don't care who you are nobody deserve that amount.

                  Give them 100k each and and tell'em to stop acting like spoiled b****.

                    I think people underestimate how much an anomaly that Mayweather/De La Hoya buy number was. I'd be surprised if Pacquiao/Mayweather even approached that.

                      People will easily gain intrest after Manny destroys Shane, the first press conference, tv interviews and the first episode of 24/7. Yall have got to be ****ting me if you think this fight dosent surpass Oscar-Floyd. I say it does 2.7mill homes maybe more. Think about the new forms of advertisement- twitter, youtube, facebook. **** I see pepsi advertisements when I turned on my PS3.
