    because the only thing that breaks records is mayweather vs pacquiao...

    like i've said before, i know this is boxingscene, but the reality is the majority of people that buy a ppv dont watch..... and dont even care for the undercard, so i have no idea where you guys think having a stack card makes some sort of difference
    I didn't buy the Pac vs Marquez fight because of the undercard. I watched it live anyway but I didn't pay for that s**t and I dubbed on a DVD a week after the fight on demand.

      I would jizz in my pants if this was a legit card. Throw Trout vs. Bundrage on there for good measure.

        I hardly ever miss a PPV, but if this May card is Floyd vs Guerrero and the undercard is shit, I ain't buying it. If Shaefer's idea of a "Record Breaking" event is Floyd vs Robert G with a weak undercard, they ain't getting no where near "Record Breaking".

          Nah, the availability of streams has killed any chance of approaching that.

          Back when May/DLH set the record streaming service ******.

          Now decent quality streams are everywhere.

            Mayweather is fighting either Alvarez or Martinez. A long stretch, but I'd expect him to fight even Trout before he fights Guerrero.

            Why not...

            Mayweather vs. Martinez
            Alvarez vs. Angulo
            Cotto vs. Guerrero
            Khan vs. Garcia II
            Trout vs. Bundrage

                Schaefer always over estimates PPV buys. I think it was against Shane Mosley he said it would do 3 million buys or something like that.

                If it's floyd vs guererro I would imagine they would simply do the same thing they've been doing which is have Canelo on the undercard, against Angulo. So I would imagine around the typical (fantastic) Floyd numbers around 1.5 million give or take.

                  I agree, Schaefer and Oscar are full of shit. The question now is, who will they put up against Canelo? Angulo seems about right; he's on the verge of another loss anyway.

                    This card's looking pretty decent after all (with the addition of the Problem)...

                    May vs Ghost
                    Canelo vs somebody
                    Broner vs Burns (probably)

                    Now give us a strong opening fight and I might buy this card.

                      Broner vs Burns? That's a damn good undercard. When did this news break?
