          But 900K isn't bad considering it was Guerrero.
          True... I just felt like there was no build up.
          Ortiz had way more build up and look how well that fight did.
          Then again, this just gives way to the "Mayweather is nothing without Canelo on the undercard" bit

                You mean Canelo who peaked around 1-1.2 million views on Showtime, and they didn't have to pay 70 dollars to watch him???

                  Calm down im making an observation. And no streaming has been around but it has really taken off now. Technology advancements. And like i posted i buy all so if you really want to argue about PPV buys or money then go right ahead. I honestly dont care.

                      It's not really a matter of hating, it's just that he's losing his employer money and from a boxing fan perspective the interest lies in him being pushed towards fighting more marketable opponents.
