    The May/Canelo PPV can still be purchased through PPV on TWC. Showtime is just the main sponsor/promoter for the PPV.

      No chance. That game could likely get 10-15 million viewers on a network like CBS. If Mayweather vs Canelo hit 2.5 million that would be a minimum of 25 million people watching. One pay per view buy usually implies more than one person is watching, it's not one buy per person.

        Likewise, you can have more than one viewer watching an NFL game in a single household. I normally have at least two or three people watching on Sundays at my house.

          I get what your saying; but I think more people will up seeing the game than the fight.

                  I know, but that doesn't make it right.

                  It's like bank fees, banks charging me to lend my money out at a higher rate than they give me is bs.

                    Comcast was the same way once Fios became available in the DMV area. Comcast pays some places not have Fios available in certain areas.

                      I hate these mutha****in cable companies. I as a customer should be able to select my own channels and pay for them accordingly AND NOT paying for **** channels that I don't wanna watch. WHo the **** watches Turner Class Movie channel?
