Comments Thread For: Mayweather-Canelo Drills De La Hoya-Floyd Gate Record

[ManUtd626]

I have a feeling that Matthysse v Garcia will steal the show and be fight of the night. Whoever wins that will probably be built up by showtime as the next great champ.

doubt it will break the mayweather/de la hoya PPV record, even though matthysse is one of the most entertaining and a top fighter out there he is unknown to many casuals so im guessing it'll do about 1.8 million ppvs which is still solid

I disagree,garcia vs mathysse is thee fight.at 140 and is one of the highly talked about and publisized fight at 140 in years..and if the trout vs lara fight materializes that would make it the absolute best boxing event ever,i think once its all said and done it will at least tie or break de la hoya vs mayweather by a few thousands in ppv sales...de la hoya/mayweather had a weak undercard and did 2.4..mayweather/canelo is truly starpower!

same dudes that hate floyd are worrying about whether this will break the record, shouldn't you guys be talking about pac vs rios possibility of breaking the ppv record in the states lmao.

Pac - Rios would not break any records in the states but it will surpass Oscar-Floyd in PPV sales. Afterall, the states is not the world even if you don't believe it. In the end, Pacquiao still is the PPV king.

pac is the b side in that zhiming ppv he is the reason that ppv will do those numbers point blank.

you lost me on this one man...#confused

This is all true and I agree with you. I'm not implying the PPV will bomb like his previous one, in fact it's almost certain it will do great numbers. I just don't believe it'll beat Oscar/Floyd numbers. A big part of it is the fact that Showtime simply has less drawing power than HBO.

Yes, Showtime is the WCW (or is it TNA now) to HBO's WWE.

To everyone who states the obvious (it would do better on HBO) thats the point. Showtime wants more viewership so its putting on the biggest shows possible with the biggest star. Their also trying to make a future thats why they put Garcia/Matthysse on there. I don't think anyone cares about breaking records on this one, just to get new subscriptions.

Nah, aint true, showtime didnt know you, and they dont even have the slightest idea you exist, fact.
