]PPV Numbers will be better than Pacquiao vs Algieri. [/B]

I'm watching this fight at a bar.

I would hope so, Berto is way more known than Algieri was when Manny fought him. Both are joke fights and shouldn't be or have been on PPV.

Shocking! I did not see this coming...

Like I said before it was official, I could careless what Mayweather does next, just give up the Belts and let Thurman, Porter, Khan and Garcia have something to fight for at Welterweight instead of holding belts Hostage

Time for the Next ERA! Respect to Mayweather, cong**** on a Legendary career but I'm ready to move on for his ERA

Sad thing about it, because Casuals don't know any better and they will want to throw fight parties just because they can, it will still likely do solid numbers willing to bet he beats out GGG vs Lemieux and Cotto vs Canelo in Buys easily

Why are people so worried about the PPV numbers that Floyd will do with this fight?

[LOWBLOW_CHAMP]

lol yea its a bs fight, hopefully he stacks the undercard right. but he did just beat the guy everyone begged him to fight for so long and some wont give him his props so i wouldnt care either if i was him. its time for fans to move on anyways. people say how much they hate him yet talk about him every chance they get and make memes and the whole 9 lol lets move on from the floyd pac era its over. time to argue about garcia thurman etc.

I think people are confused on here...

You people actually think this fight won't sell? LOL

There was a reason Floyd was able to avoid Pacquiao for 5-6 years and still put up big numbers...

He has millions of fk-boy-fan-boys who will buy this fight just to suck Floyd's d1ck...

I guarantee this fight does like 700K PPVs or close to it...

Haymon will add a good undercard fight too...like Thurman vs Porter/Spence or something else similar to like the Porter-Berto level of a fight...

Floyd has a very big bi-curious fan base that will buy any Floyd fight... shiiiit... funny thing is I still see Floyd pot shot-and hugging his way to a 12-0 decision with no warnings from the refs...

Obviously the PPV numbers won't be great.

They will market it as Floyd's last fight and that will probably bring a few buyers in.

My guess is 500K.

Who really cares? I doubt Floyd does.

Floyd and Showtime have already made their money.

Big Mayweather fan, NOT buying this PPV! This is another slap in the face of the sport, just like Pacquiao vs. Algeri! I'll save my money for Cotto vs. Alvarez!

[LOWBLOW_CHAMP]

Why are people so worried about the PPV numbers that Floyd will do with this fight?

yea really they will still make some money out the event just not as much as normal. they just did crazy numbers with the pac fight so im sure floyd could care less.

there are also many that buy to see him lose. most people i know root against him but still watch

Was hoping this Berto thing was a bait n switch situation. Guess not. Horrible fight. Worse opponent since Henry Bruseles for Mayweather. If somehow Mayweather, Haymon & Ellerbe can outsell Canelo vs Cotto with this dog**** fight those mfers should be heralded as geniuses even if you hate one or all of them.

Hope someone gets injured & this fight gots to be canceled.
