Comments Thread For: Berto: Floyd Mayweather To Blame For Low PPV Numbers

[Kuyukut]

look at these idiot fans trying to defend the most boring athlete of all time.

No need to push and take a risk of getting hit with something ****** when you have the fight won man....Martinez career was ended with that nonesense against Chavez Jr

Floyd's never reckless, and is in fact too slick to get caught by a hail Mary shot. He could have easily ended the fight better than that.

[youbeight]

This dude made more money than Maidana Guerrero and maybe Ortiz, two guys he lost to and I'd pick Maidana to beat him, in ppv that did better than his with Floyd, and is complaining about numbers. Smh.

[k1llu]

at no time would Floyd had gotten anything more 550k for a berto fight before the manny fight or after.

[texasboi15]

Opponents aside that boy ran off two fights quick in the past 4 months!

Hell the other guy don't get back til somewhere in 2016 lol!

No doubt about it. I'd say out of the 500K, 430K at least tuned in to watch Berto because he is an entertaining action fighter. The other 70K probably wanted to see floyd lose or were floyd fans. Floyds numbers are all because of opponents, not because of him. When he fought Canelo people tuned in to watch Canelo, same with Cotto, Pacquiao etc. Andre doesnt have many FANS but those who are carried the PPV.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Going by the flawed logic you spew here, then it means Pac vs Oscar should have pulled in close to 2 million PPVs but it did not. It did about 700k.

If people tuned in to watch Canelo then how come Canelo has NOT been on any other PPV? Why was his crappy fight with Angulo on regular HBO? So going with your logic then Canelo vs Cotto should pull in at least 2 Million PPV's because people tuned in to watch them both when they fought Mayweather. So if their PPV is a bust then your logic and reason are so pathetic that you need to keep your obtuse opinions to yourself.

If people tune in to watch Pac then how come none of Pac's fight have had higher PPV numbers than Floyd against similar opponents or even any opponent. Floyd vs Cotto did 1.5 Million PPV yet Pac vs Cotto did less than 1 Million.
Floyd vs Shane did 1.4 Million PPV yet Pac vs Shane was less than Floyd
JMM Marquez vs Floyd had a higher PPV number than Pacman too.

Dude, you need to google some of these information before you come here and spew garbage. Floyd is PPV King because people tune in to watch him. His numbers speak for themselves and they are FACTS

[bigdunny1]

What can I say he's right. Fans have turned on Floyd and hate him and more importantly want nothing to do with him. 400k is a huge drop off and speaks to his fanbase which this fight proves is not very much. Angering the fanbase of other popular fighter's and playing the villain is how he sold PPVs.

[The Problem Child]

Oh so it just happen by coincidence each of the fighter's you mentioned did their highest numbers with Floyd right lol fckin hilarious!

Because floyd fans got up for those big fights (pawned most of their posessions, hustled, grinded, stole etc) and got the PPV. I would say floyd only makes up for about 20-30% of the PPV sales.

Boring for you because all that excites you is caveman-fighting style. I can get that outside bars and ******s all across America.
This is called Boxing, aka the sweet science. If it was a question of just brawling then the only training boxers would go through would be punching the hell out of punching bags and conditioning.

People like you who rank Sugar Ray Leonard above Floyd should just google his fights to see that Sugar Ray used to fight the same EXACT way Floyd fights. So get your facts right before spewing garbage
