Comments Thread For: Mayweather-Pacquiao Talks Stalled By Network Battle

[MrRolltide91]

Sounds like a rather small, insignificant matter that Espinoza, the creepy, ****-stirring c*nt that he is, is deliberately exaggerating in order to possibly save face on Mayweather's part should this fight not happen.

If this fight doesn't come to fruition, it won't be because of a dispute over which network gets to air the ****ing replay.

Yea its floyd fault hbo doesn't want to agree to the same deal like they did with tyson/lewis

It sure as **** won't be something as trivial as a ****ing delayed broadcast.

Trivial?? Lol. If it was so trivial it wouldn't be an issue for HBO either. So, clearly u are wrong.

Its worth millions and millions because every time its replayed or part replayed for ever its under either HBO or Showtime banner , long term advertising its probably worth more than the live event , its far from trivial to the Networks .

except Floyd its the PPV king(what was manny last ppv numbers?) and the cash cow..! many cant even do 500k by himself, Floyd vs ODLH did 2.4k Floyd vs Canelo did over 2k, Floyd vs Cotto did 1.5k, when was the last time Manny cracked 1.5k?

Floyd is with SHOW TIME, Show time is the Side A, floyd vs manny will do close to 3k on Show Time

All this shows is that 45 million black people can all pool their money and cram into 1 million project apartments and order PPV.

What is delayed broadcasting?

[AgainstTheRopes]

Perhaps with Cotto-Canelo off it pushes HBO to make this fight even more so. Otherwise they'll be stuck with 200k PPV buys for Pacquiao-Vargas, while Showtime gets 750k for Mayweather-Cotto 2 on May 2nd.

HBO will take a big hit if they prevent the fight from going ahead .

[hitking]

This is 100% completely inaccurate. Manny does have an exclusive deal with HBO.

Really, when did this happen???

Airing the fight a week after on regular HBO or SHO.
