The writers that reported 925,000 PPV buys for #Mayhem are great writers, l respect them alot, but that doesn't make them always right.
I'm sure everyone will assume it's only because I'm a Floyd hater, but I'm more inclined to believe Glaser. He hasn't let us Boxing fans down lately and he's broken a lot of blockbuster news before anyone else, including the big names in Boxing journalism. Plus the way Show and Floyd have acted since fight night makes it seem all is not well in paradise.
Don't know if this is true but if so that's a good number. The card was absolutely terrible. None of the undercard fights were good on paper. Bey/Vasquez was a guaranteed snoozer. LSC fight was a clear mismatch and Angulo is done at the top level. Plus, he was fighting a no name. I really thought the fight was going to do 700,000-800,000.
The first fight being competitive definitely helped.
That's a really good number since most expected this fight to do worse. This will not force Mayweather's hand to face Pacquiao. I suspect that we'll see Mayweather vs. Khan with Thurman vs. Garcia as the co-feature. That should do some solid numbers and would setup Mayweather's opponent for September rather easily unless Thurman/Garcia fought to a draw.

So long as you have always been inclined to believe Glaser when he reported other numbers. If not, well then yeah, you are cosigning only because you are a Floyd hater.
