Where are all of the people saying Showtime is losing money on Floyd? All he did was give them two of the highest grossing fights in history.

$180m, minus Arum's cut, gets Pacquiao $125m-$135m. deduct whatever advances that Top Rank gave Pacquiao for the fight, not to mention the $25m already paid to Pacquiao, and the full number maybe gets up to another ~$70m (brought in over the next two years, as the receipts roll in, likely leading to further advances being asked for, with even less money getting to Pacquiao.

Canelo is the perfect example. Had he fought Floyd like he fought Kirkland, he might have won a round.
You really want Floyd to not fight at his best to make it easier for guys to win?
we know why Guerrero's dad isn't asking them to. Why aren't you asking for them to step up their performance?
Thank you for saying it before I did. Blaming Floyd because, against him, those fighters didn't fight how they normally do. If Pac were more aggressive it would've been more exciting, but he would've been taken a much worse beating and . Same with Canelo. They weren't aggressive, yet they blame Floyd for it.

He's tremendously boring, especially these days - Pacquiao, Canelo, De La Hoya, Marquez - all exciting fighters, were reduced to nullified sparring partners because of Floyd's cynical, horrendous style. Oh I forget, the onus is on THEM to make Mayweather's ass less tedious
Floyd is one of the most boring, joyless fighters in boxing right now. His obnoxious fanbase are too busy revelling in the win over Pacquaio to actually understand the problem with the fight of the century.
Oh well, keep crowing about how much money he made
****head.
