    I want ALL fights to do well.

      Says Pac-Bradley did about the same number Mayweather did, and that Showtime needed to do 1.2 million buys to turn a profit.
      Maybe Show Time needs to sue Mayweather for their money back for being a Fraud when representing him self as the man who can sell 1 million PPV

          No what we need is for one guy to stop being so greedy. How can a guy who beat the crap out of him be paid 1.5 million compared to 33 million. Than some of the under card fighters need to be paid right. Exception Broner who shouldn't been paid 2.5 million. So I guess all you need to get paid is to have a foul mouth

            Floyd uses this excuses to duck Pac. Now he has to scratch this excuse and add the pillow gloves in the contract.

            pacquiao literally sold the Bradley PPV on his own without any recognisable chief support, Mayweather has had the luxury of Garcia, Matthysse, Khan and Broner over at show time, which is a great strategy, hand it to GBP for putting on good shows but with TR the yare literally just selling Pacquiao on his own and he still does almost a million. That's impressive. And he is arguably the biggest name in the sport.

              Well said.

              Over blown ego and a huge purse that can't deliver the guarantee of selling a million and up buys shouldn't be paid too much. This just leaves more deserving and promising young fighters to get robbed of being paid right.

              It's selfish to be a primadona and ask ridiculous sums of money and could not deliver the goods.

              Floyd has single handedly destroying boxing. Once showtime declares bankruptcy we know who to blame.

                stacked undercards??? was Oscar - Floyd stacked? Floyd - Hatton stacked, Floyd-Marquez stacked? Floyd-Mosley stacked.

                Only Canelo and Maidana fights had decent undercards so lets stop going on like Floyd has always done this.. sometimes you guys logic is so silly.

                No disrespect but i come across silly dumb comments from Mayweather fans but most Pacman fans take it to another level of ******ity..

                am not into cussing peopLe out but GO'T DAMN!!
