      It will do 2 million. Floyd is the PPV king. Doesn't matter who he fights.

I think it's pretty sad that Khan is going to duck Alexander to ensure he doesn't phuck up his opportunity for Floyd next spring. I also think they should do the fight in the UK at Wembley to give it a hook and to make the whole thing more of an event rather than just another fight at the MGM. Kind of like when Pac fought Clottey at Cowboys Stadium. The fact that it was at the new Stadium was the real hook for that fight. Floyd going to England would be the hook here...and if indeed this were to happen, they'd probably have Canelo fight at his own venue on the undercard to bring in the Mexican audience, and if Canelo opted not to do that, they'd be smart to let Canelo fight Cotto on Cinco De Mayo and just make a date in April for the Mayweather vs. Khan fight.

        Thoughts?
        Who cares I'm not buying it we already know the results Mayweather Ko in 2 to 8 rounds

            I'd say between 1.2 and 1.5 million no matter who Floyd fights next

              Anyone that thinks Floyd can fight whoever he wants and get 2 million buys is a ****ing fool. If its like that fight Lara or Garcia. Only reason Floyd wants to fight Khan is because he will help the numbers be big. That's it!!! This fight is a money grab!!! The Canelo fight in a way was too but atleast he had some serious legit momentum going into the fight and had a punchers chance. Khan doesn't have anything going for him except money.

                Schaefer's projected PPV sales in this fight is 3 million. It will only do 2 million, though. Not bad. Floyd is the PPV king.

                  in a purely business based aspect, this fight is perfect for floyd. sell out an off-shore heavy hitter venue like wembley where the fodder is a b- level fighter at best and rake in millions upon millions for taking on no real threat (jokes on you, brits), at all.

                  it would be interesting for the first 2 rounds, then dance party.

                    lol I think/hope the "2 million buys with anyone" comment was sarcasm but honestly who the hell is out there for Floyd to fight that makes sense? Fans need to put the hate aside and realize the pac fight isn't happening for obvious reasons. Maybe later. GGG is too big and makes no financial sense. Thurman isn't a big money fight either. Now I would say Garcia deserves it but he isn't ready for that fight yet, give him one fight at 147 (which is what will happen) then make the fight with Floyd. So who's out there? Though I dont love it, Khan does make the most sense especially if the fight is in the UK. Nobody else out there realistically for Floyd to fight.
