Weren't they giving away seats left and right too?

Way more than I expected.

He chose an opponent pretty much nobody cares to see him fight and only had 6 weeks to promote it, the PPV had flop written all over it, he's still getting paid though so I doubt he cares lol Showtime will just have to cushion it.

They had a 6 fight deal with Floyd in which they probably profited over a half a $Billion, I think they're extremely pleased with how the deal went.

How do you figure that? Get real. With the contract overall with the six fights combined, showtime came out on top, but half billion? Ninja please. The contract was profitable overall but they did not kill it(money wise) by any means.

Embarrassing blow to the self proclaimed PPV king. On the other hand, he's retired so I don't think its a matter of pride anymore.

"Self Proclaimed" I believe the numbers have proven he is the PPV king. Please tell me what current fighter has did higher numbers in their lastest PPV without Mayweather.

[johnm is...]

over 5 million ppv's sold in 2 fights is amazing

Get 'em, Larry.

[sirron000]

Thanks to Pacquiao.

What was PAC PPV numbers before the FMJ fight? Who should be thanking who?

You really believe people paid to see Floyd fight?

[RoyJonesJrp4pno1]

Damn his ppv buys went down by almost 4 million buys in 4 months.

[MisanthropicNY]

Yah right. I'll believe the PPV Numbers when they are official not just fake projections...bottom line is that Froyd's PPV sales dropped like crazy without Manny Pacquiao...

So all that $40 mil flat offer talk was a complete joke and just goes to show Froyd ducked the fight for years and then cheated anyway...
