Floyd/haymon looking to get his final fight on CBS... Free tv... They will want whoever comes cheap with little threat.. Mayfield and Berto fit that description....


My money is on Berto,,,, he has been groomed for awhile... Had he beaten ortiz or ghost, he probably would have had the fight by now... Floyd/Berto has been targeted as a possible matchup years ago...

does having a cheap opponent even matter when floyd is getting paid 32 million anyway? They are gonna lose so much money on this fight, like its going to break records in a bad way.

They are not going to bother spending so much time promoting the fight, even the #48 fight was announced too late IMO, normally a fight like that would be announced 6 or 7 months prior. This one would probably get annouced at the end of July/ beginning of August.

There's no doubt Berto would have got the fight had he won those.

Floyd also cited Berto as a possible opponent after the Cotto fight in the 30 days in May documentary.

Sam Watson said Floyd told him personally he wants Berto and it's the fight he believes will happen.

So I think you could be right. I just wish they would announce it now.

Doesn't matter,,,,

Showtime doesn't care anymore,,, all they wanted was the canelo and manny fights... Floyd delivered and give them the #1 and #3 most lucrative fights ever


People claim floyd had to do 1.2 million buys to break even, that's 7.2 million buys during the lifetime of contract,, canelo was 2.2, manny was like 4.4, that's 6.6 right there, plus 2 Maidana fights and ghost and showtime is well over 9 million PPv buys...
CBS and floyd probably know his next one will flop, especially after the manny fight being such a dud... But on regular CBS, it would be a huge event, regardless if it's vs Berto or mayfield... Plus it would be a test run for CBS to see how big a fight for pbc can be and what type of minster ratings it could draw...
