Did you see any of that in Pacquiao fights?

    Arum is a pro. He has connections. He operates on I'll scratch your back, you scratch mine principle. Schaefer's every move, otoh, cost millions. This is basic.
    Sure Sure

      If Arum had so much connections he wouldnt have to have his star pupil fighting in China like a side show n s**t.

      I mean a JCC Jr with a week of training can roll out the bed and sell 500,000 ppvs, is this how far Manny's stock has dwindled

          I can remember people calling Floyd vs guererro a flop for doing 850-900 ... Same guys defending Manny's 500 against Rios ...guererro and rios are the same imo as far as star power goes ... Manny would be lucky to get %30 TBH

            Guys, you can't always rely on PPV sales. It's a gamble. You still have to spend truckloads of money to promote it, not to mention the fighters' pay, etc. You may not or may lose money. That's why networks usually prefer regular fights by subscription. SHO just discarded the Broner/Maidana PPV.

                      The Macau boxing event was a financial success. Arum wants to make more. Macau investors agree. Haha... I'm sure Showtime is green with envy.

                      You clowns need to take off your Floyd fanboy glasses.
