I'm starting to think this fight is going to hit 2 Million PPV buys (ESPN Coverage)

    This is like Floyd vs Baldomir all over again..

    Slow motion flat footed fighter vs a runner = Boring fight.

      It'll do similar or close to the number with the Cotto fight. 2mil is Pac-Mayweather level. Not canelo.
      Yup. 1.2 m only because of Garcia v Mathysse. Otherwise it's 800k tops. Promoters knows fans learned their lesson that Floyd is boring so they added a good under card.

        That was a garbage fight. Fans were pissed, it was frustrating to watch.

        Canelo will press but will be too slow and flatfooted to be effective against this pot shot runner = boring

          im probably watching it in a movie theater, they told me they will sell beer, last time after the pacquiao-marquez fight my place looked like sheet, 3 pukes (one mine) lots of beer spilled in my carpet and I counted like 4 cig burns in my couch... the sight of pacquiao flattened was priceless tho..
          on the other hand I don't want to risk a DWI and a night in the slammer...

          decisions, decisions.....
