    Let's wait for the real PPV buys, I'm sure its double the initial rumor.

    Floyd, TBE.

      nevertheless,

      floyd and his overbearing fanbase started this whole ppv counting nonsense.

      you only have floyd and your kind to thank for opposing fanbase going at floyd and his fans for ppv numbers.
      Fair point. Floyd does talk alot of numbers as a way of getting the better end of the stick.

        Pac did 475K with Rios, and 700K with Bradley II.
        Pacquiao-Bradley I- 900K
        Pacquiao-Bradley II- 800K

        That's without the most expensive undercard ever^

        With the exception of Canelo, Floyd's supposed drawing power and results have not justified his $32 mil guarantees. It will be interesting to see how SHOW responds to this. The Canelo fight was announced a very short while after the Guerrero bomb.

        I'm sure they will try to push Floyd to fight a live dog who will bring in buys. Wouldn't be surprised if Floyd goes on another 'vacation' if they try to force him to fight someone he doesn't want to (cough*Manny).

          Definitely not good to hear. Usually Floyd can do 1 million no matter who he faces. That should constitute panic mode in Team Mayweather.

            not them...he has a signed contract...the panic should be on Showtime...their lil Floyd investment, save the Canelo fight, has been a failure

              So now it's over one million instead of 1.5?

                Despite of higher number if the fight has less than a million buys Showtimes is losing a lot of money. They paid Floyd $32 million plus an expensive undercards and the only profit they made was Floyd against Canelo. They rest were puff in the dust

                  Glosser is hit and miss. He was talking up the golden boy feud before anyone else.... But seems to be a senile old man half the time. Been a week.... So around the time numbers would start popping up

                    Ouch if this is true, not good for the PPV king. Especially the hype.
                    Still good numbers just like the Pac Vs Bradley numbers are good, although it's surprising the Pac vs Bradley did that well imo.

                      Wow, that's horrible. I was way off my estimation. I thought it would do 1.2-1.3 million. People really are losing interest in Mayweather and Broner got exposed so that didn't help matters.
