    Kim is a Floyd lover, not a hater. He is Korean and probably cant stand the hate mail from the pinoy fans who are crazy idiotic *******s.

      I said it before and I'll say it again. This will be like the fall of '09 all over again, only worse (for Floyd) and it's highly unlikely that a fight with Vic would do better numbers than Hatton or Marquez for Floyd. Don't know why people thought a fight with Victor Ortiz was going to bring in 1.7-2 mil buys. What were you people smoking?

      Where did Kim get that # from BTW? Either way, at this point 850K seems much more likely than the 1.3 mil floydhype was trying to push. It's been 3 weeks...

        Good news. Mayweather would be more then likely push for a Pacquiao fight now. Money talks.

          Even Kevin Iole is waiting for the Official PPV numbers... But was it 1.3M buys?

          It's been three weeks.....
          and with Canelo, and Morales on the card, where do you think the majority of that 850 came from

            850 K sounds accurate. they really ought to think about pushing down the PPV Price to 49.99 considering the opponents being sparring partners

              People are tired of Floyd's attitude and antics....tossing money away or burning on film during a recession with one of the highest unemployment rates in 50 years....

                Maybe you can tell us when Morales or Canelo ever drew 850,000 ppv numbers.

                  Kim has not reported this. He stated it as a potential # he's heard rumored on Twitter. Rafael has stated repeatedly that the # he's getting from GBP is ober 1 Mill. Time will tell, but 850 is in no way quantified.

                    The fact that it's taken them so long to release the numbers means they must have been disappointing. My guess would be that Americans are starting to get tired of paying $50-$60 for PPVs that only deliver what they promise half of the time. Didn't Pacquiao's last fight do disappointing numbers too?

                    Not that it matters that much to me, what with my £15 English PPVs, but I hope for you Americans' sake they reduce the price a bit. $60 is extortionate.

                      i doubt canelo and morales amounted to much. after matthysse pulled out, the undercard fell apart for most people i guess. still, people are assuming too much with the numbers.
