Thats cool I don't see anybody breaking this record maybe 20 years from know or ten, but not soon.

If floyd jr earned that kind of whooping money and then refuses REMATCH, then he is destroying his monicker the "money man"! and eating his word of saying he can beat Pacman 10 times.

How can you beat Pacman 10 times when he refuses a rematch? or, how can he says that, when Pacman never losses ALL ROUNDS and had him on the run?

NEW YORK - The boxing blockbuster event, Floyd Mayweather vs. Manny Pacquiao, shattered the previous record for total pay-per-view buys and now ranks as the highest-grossing pay-per-view of all time. Initial reports from distributors indicate that the event generated more than 4.4 million U.S. buys and more than $400 million in domestic pay-per-view revenue alone. With additional revenue from the live gate at MGM Grand in Las Vegas, international television distribution, sponsorships, closed circuit and merchandise sales, the event is expected to generate in excess of $500 million in gross worldwide receipts. The news was announced jointly by Showtime Networks Inc., a subsidiary of CBS Corporation, and HBO in conjunction with event promoters Mayweather Promotions and Top Rank, Inc.
