    Floyd is also ducking Amir Khan since 2010-2011
    Khan's grandmother could knock Khan out cold.

      enough nerds, like Kim and fat Dan, have said they've been "told" it's not about money, but who's telling them?

      what else is it going to be but money, realistically?

        That's BS IMO. Why does it matter? It's a PPV. If you're gonna buy you're gonna buy it. There's no subscription or whatnot.

          They negotiate how much of a cut the provider gets and also how much the provider pays for the event if any.'

          Canelo is supposedly a Showtime fighter now which could add problems if he is on the UC and Floyd wants to go with HBO. Another big sticking point could be Golden Boy's recent close relationship with Showtime, so GBP could be trying to sell Floyd on switching networks.

          Showtime also has access to CBS to help promote the fight.

            Im just saying, why does Mayweather care if it's on HBO or Showtime? Unless he has a contract with HBO which I doubt. PPV is PPV no? Whether its HBO PPV or Showtime PPV. It's a 1 time fee thing. Even if someone doesn't have Showtime they can still order the PPV. Im not sure if you get what Im trying to say here.

              I get what your saying, but I think you are missing what I am trying to say.

              When a guy fights on PPV he doesn't get all of the it generates. In fact he doesn't get most of it.

              Most of the money goes to the provider HBO, Showtime, Ect. and the cable companies like Time Warner ect.

              The fighters get a certain cut of the money, and that is negotiated before hand. So Floyd could be trying to get more money from the provider.

                ring size, gloves, corner, who comes out first, any of numerous things can be it.

                we all know mayweather is a picking female so she will try to have his underwear match the stitching of the ring if she can.

                    Floyd sucks off hbo any chance someone will listen. I dont see him fighting for showtime anytime soon. He always brags about how loyal he is to hbo
