    Did Showtime made money with Floyd?

    We know they made money with Floyd vs Canelo (2.2M) buys and Floyd vs Manny (4.3M x 60% with hbo getting 40%?)

    But they lost money with Guerrero, Maidana 1 & 2 and will lose heavily with Berto.

      I think they Did pretty good considering Floyd only had two Pay per view that did over a mil.

      I'm considering that because they never released official numbers besides the two fights with canelo and manny.

      Both those two were monsters so I think did better than braking even.

        Over half a billion generated with Floyd at the helm of showtime boxing. What kind of question is that?

          They've also taken huge losses, it's about profit which takes into account costs. If the costs are greater than the inflow then it's irrelevant how much revenue has been generated.

            If they really had "huge losses" why would they allow Floyd to take on Berto?

            -let it sink in-

            -be quiet-

              Mayweather can fight whoever he wants at this stage of his career. Stephen Espinoza and showtime are pretty much powerless. Also they probably made their money back and more with Pacquiao-Mayweather

                They tried to convince him to not retire and extend his contract.

                What does that tell you?

                  You think they lost money on any of his fights? They made money on every one of his fights.
