    His last PPV featured Floyd vs the 3rd biggest draw in boxing, being Miguel Cotto. So on the card were four fighters and each had namesake; Floyd, Cotto, Mosley, Canelo and that did 1.5 mil.

    Guerrero and Trout aren't big draws at all.

    Since CBS owns Showtime they can market the hell out of it on mainstream tv and other cbs properties (web etc).
    That would be the reason it would do well.

      Don't see Broner being on there.
      I agree.

      With Burns and Abril both tied up with bouts in March, might be too quick of a turnaround.

      But I hope I'm wrong.

      Would be great to see

        Broner-Beltran would be decent for the undercard but I don't know if it could work with his HBO deal. I don't know how flexible it is.

            I'll be buying it. I think maybe 1.1 million or 1.2. I don't think it'll do better than Mayweather-Cotto, let alone De La Hoya-Mayweather.

              Don't forget Badou Jack!

              They'll add more fights too.

              Was really hoping for Mares-De Leon. De Leon has been on a few Mayweather undercards.

                It's now been put out there that Canelo might not even be on this PPV since Floyd is allegedly refusing to fight him in the fall.

                That makes streaming even more of an option now to some.

                  Mares-De Leon is on for it ... should be good.

                      no Canelo Trout, and no Santa cruz Moreno?


                      not buying this garbage card. Might go to a bar and watch Mares De leon if it gets made.

                      but i'm not even streaming Fraud Guerrero
