Comments Thread For: Mayweather-Canelo PPV Buys Projected at 2.2 Million

[MrRolltide91]

People always talking about Floyds fights are boring because he doesn't KO people.

De lahoya...only one man Ko'd him and that was Hopkins.(i don't count that 147 crap against pacquiao)

Hatton....got ko'd

Marquez.... now who has ever ko'd Marquez? I'll wait

Mosley....Who has ever stopped Mosley? I'll wait

Ortiz....got ko'd

Cotto... Quit against Margarito and tko'd against Pacquiao.(although that was the old rice eating Pacquiao) other than that who stopped him? I'll wait

Guerrero...Who stopped him other than a cut? I'll wait

Canelo....Who has stopped him? I'll wait

Fans should start giving more credit to the guys Floyd is fighting.
They are more durable than you think.

Great point

[Larry the boss]

hmmmmmmmmmm Pac did !

Manny has 1 stoppage at 147 and that was a bull**** stoppage......Floyd has 3 ko's at 147

[BIGBOXINGFAN]

May- vs Guerrero sold 780k that means that Canelo was responsible for 1.5 Millions buys by himself aswell as most of the gate

Vaca Dinero

Even you don't believe this post.
And how do you know that the Guerrero fight only did 780K?

Canelo will never hit that number again without Floyd and Floyd will never hit that number again without Canelo.

UNLESS..........

Mayweather vs Pacquiao would still do 2mill IMHO

[J The UnBiased]

canelo is the new ppv king. floyd the fraud can tag along but its canelo that made the fight a success.

Come on, Canelo can't be the PPV King. What about Manny?

The number 1 most important aspect of boxing is to keep winning , Floyd has conquered the sport at its highest level by beating with ease who ever they put in front of him , its only boring because Floyd is so much better than the rest , they cant touch him because he is just too good .

similar numbers???

A fight doing over 2 mill ppv buys in this day and age is insane.

They just did the highest grossing fight ever, I think Showtime is getting their money's worth... Lol

But I think Broner would bring in numbers in the same range with one strong showing at welterweight. It's an easy fight to hype and there is too much ego on the line to look away.

People just don't get it.

Alot of these newer fans just don't understand how hard it is to do 1 million buys let alone 2 fucking million. It's a staggering number. They've been spoiled by Mayweather & Pacquiao routinely doing a million+ buys, that people have either lost the context of what it means to garner 1 million buys. Or never had it to begin with.

But let me provide a little context.

De La Hoya couldn't even do 600,000 buys with Chavez Sr. And did just under 800,000 buys against Sweet Pea.

Tyson, a global and American sporting icon could never even do 2 million+ buys with Lennox & Holyfield.

Floyd has now done it twice.

[Roja's480]

And the money king does it again big props

[MrRolltide91]

The question now is, who can Floyd fight in may that will bring in similar #s? Showtime isn't gonna go for him fighting someone like Alexander or Khan. Neither fight will bring in even half of what this fight did.

The only fight that can eclipse this is Floyd/pac if pac puts Rios on his azz

I see that you edit your post. I still think that fight happens.

[onechance87]

But but canelo never sold any ppvs....

Thats y its impresive for canelos first ppv to be over 2 million.
