Comments Thread For: Arum: People Are Getting Disgusted With Mayweather!

[tomhawq]

His PPV numbers have all been based on lies as Espinoza came to discover. They're over exaggerated. Even Schaefer finally found out that that they're really not that huge when he failed to report a number in the Guerrero fight. He always thought HBO was cheating him... Don't you wonder why this guy is still fighting? His ex best friend 50 cent have repeatedly said he's really not that rich.

he's a ppv fraud.

Fans are tired of paying 80 bucks for ppv!!!!!!!! That ish should be 49.99

Espinoza never released any number doe. They're so embarrassingly low. They could be as low as 300K.

You can't trust Arum:

The Manny Pacquiao-Timothy Bradley Jr. welterweight title rematch on April 12 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas generated between 750,000 and 800,000 pay-per-view buys, Top Rank promoter Bob Arum told ESPN.com.

That is a significant decline from what Pacquiao-Bradley I generated when Bradley received a heavily disputed split decision that led to worldwide outrage in June 2012.

Mayweather earned $32 million guaranteed for the fight with Maidana banking $3 million. Both fighters can earn millions more based on pay-per-view sales, but this fight was not expected to be a box office hit and there is likely to be little PPV upside for either man. Their May bout generated around 900,000 PPV buys and Saturday’s fight will be hard-pressed to top that number.

Again, don't trust Arum:

While Mayweather continues to be the biggest pay per view draw in boxing his 900,000 buys exceeded the 775,000-800,000 buys that Manny Pacquiao-Tim Bradley generated in April and pushed Mayweather to 13.7 million total buys since 2006 -- the slide under 1 million buys in two of his last three fights highlights a need for Mayweather to fight more high profile opponents.

Numbers will never be released for either Maidana fight. I have a su****ion that the fight flopped.

is there anyway anyone can get those numbers?
