The fans aren't buying this promoter bs and they want the fight to happen next. Boxing is desperately in need of this fight so that's my wish at least.
    If Floyd's next fight does less than, 400k you best be sure Showtime will make Pacquiao Floyd happen.

      **** it. It was a great fight. I hope this doesn't undermine a rematch.

        The rematch would sell more because now there is a reason to watch it.

            If you think that was a great fight what do you think Pacquiao vs Mayweather will be like.

            Don't you want to see that fight?

            The best recent fight has been Molina vs Matthysse, not on PPV that one.

Those use to be super mega numbers. I remember one time that people thought you had star status if you could do like 450. Now its either a mil or bust.

              At the end of the day, I could care less either way. Its not going in my pocket. I just want to see good fights. F the numbers
              You weren't saying this in 2008 when the welterweight division was red hot with Margarito, Cotto, Williams, etc. Back then, you were all about, "well, its a high risk/low reward fight for Floyd, so its not worth taking."

              When you factor in how much money they have to pay floyd, anything under a certain number is low. Because if they don't recoup their money from the sales, they have to dig into their own pockets to keep up their end of the bargain.

              But yea, keep pretending you just want to see good fights when just a few years ago you were leading the charge for "boxing is a business and its not worth it to fight someone who is a high risk/low reward".

                And they felt short changed and mugged by the event.

                People are beginning to see through the hype.

                Well done boxing fans

                    will HBO force the fight if Mannys next ppv flops?
