    Floyd fought all 3 you mentioned when it was too late ..... after a while, you have to stop blaming everyone else and start to put some blame on Floyd for not putting that extra effort in getting those fights earlier on (or later if the opponent still needs time to mature).
    just like you should put blame on Manny for not attempting to get the fight but defering to his promoter

      2 big pay days!!!

      2 big pay days!!

      Fight guerrero on Cinco de Mayo a mexican holiday!! Guerrero is Mexican american so he will drive viewers from MEXICO and the Mexican american croud!!! so it has good balance from both crouds!! so i say about 1 million to 1.2 million ppv buys!!


      Fight Canelo in september 16 THE "OFFICIAL" MEXICAN INDEPENDENCE DAY!!! Canelo drives a bigger croud from MEXICO cuz canelo is pretty much the new flagship fighter for mexico right now so will get huge rating from the mexican fans!! so the fight will be bigger!!! so i predict about 1.5 million to 1.8 million ppv buys!!! this will be a big event!!


      those are the 2 big fights and very smart to take those 2 fights in that order!!

        I think you are underselling the PPV's. Remember Canelo is on the first fight card too and that will bring the majority of the viewers. Also add in the CBS/Showtime connection and I think the first one alone will be around 1.5 mil buys.

          40 mil and NO PPV CUT is okay for a fighter of Pac's status????

          The 40 mil is okay, but NO PPV!?

            Yeah I think 40 mil was fair. Mainly because I did not see it as a 100 mil fight. I think Floyd might of made 40-50 himself at most. I think they were both being greedy and messed themselves over. If they would have went at it when they were both in there primes then it would of definitely been worth more. After Floyd kept retiring and Manny looked so bad in the JMM 3 fight, the luster was off.
