          all this so floyd can make an outrageous 41 million dollars per fight..


          dude doesnt even knock guys out or excite....the cotto fight was good.

          the ghost fight was boring..


          he will be in the pocket with canelo less than with the ghost.

          this will be a borefest, pot shot run, pot shot run ud 12. he wont risk it..

          greed is awful


          who pays this much to watch a man pot shot and run?


          maybe tyson in his prime of killing people in exciting fashion is worth this price

          but not a boring runner. i dont blame floyd for fighting safely the way he

          does, he gets the win, but you guys are crazy for supporting his 41 million

          to do it in boring fashion. he isnt getting my money

            floyd the fraud might think that he's the only reason why the fight with canelo will be a success. he might forget the he's the b-side of the fight.

              I've been a big time boxing fan; Floyd Mayweather fan and and golden boy fan but they're out of their f--in mind with those prices.

              Thank you Floyd and Oscar for ruining this sport and sucking the fans dry.

              Floyd I hope your ass loses; Oscar, Richard Schaefer you all disgust me; forget me and my group of friends supporting your Ppv and your live fights at bar chats center or anywhere else.

              Good riddance!

              Ill happily watch baseball, football and basketball with mega superstars and corporations who don't do this to their fans.
              quit crying like a woman. and pay the $75 dollars

                he had to be hated cause he has a boring style that wouldn't sell on his own that and his opponents. less then 3,000 people went to go see him in his hometown on a hbo date. that being said adrien broner is not pretending he's just ignorant

                  cant believe ppl are actually whining about this. no1 is forcing u to purchase the ppv, there are a number of reasonable alternatives to doing that. or if u hate Floyd so much, which seems to be the overarching issue, then just don't watch it.

I strongly believe that Floyd is being guaranteed such a large purse of $41mil because he wont be receiving any ppv revenue from this fight so that Showtime can recoup their losses for the Guerrero bout. At the end of the day everyone wins. Floyd gets the highest guaranteed purse in boxing history while Showtime banks the profits from ppv and recoups from the previous Floyd fight. I may be wrong but this is what I believe. It isnt far fetched.
                      Eh...I think his $ per fight was guaranteed when he signed the contract. Kinda like a baseball/football contract, loaded up front, less toward the end.
