Not only is that most likely impossible, but you'd have to have Floyd vs Conor, Pacquaio vs prime Roberto Duran, Ali vs Tyson, and Sugar Ray Robinson vs Roy Jones Jr, then after Floyd whoops Conor in 2-3 rounds, have him come back out to fight Sugar Ray Leonard to before the Ali/Tyson fight.
Also throw in prime Sergio Martinez vs GGG, and B-Hop vs James Toney at a 170 lb. catch weight fight.

Even the forest animals and fish in the sea would buy it.

Just to have it on record, I think they did a great job with the marketing and I believe it will do better than the Canelo/May type numbers I initially predicted. But, I don't think it's touching Manny/Floyd.

This fight is widely known to be a farce so it's mostly selling to the ignorant who don't know May is virtually guaranteed to win. It has "STREAM ME" written all over it.

Fight week they will hype it up to astronomical proportions, because dana white is the king of hype he likes making the casuals believe things and buy into hype, he made conor a star and ronda.
There is no way this fight fails on ppv, celebs, casuals who are trendy and followers will buy it because its popular and talked about.
The fight will do at least 5.5 milllion ppv buys, i see it doing at most 8.5 million buys.
There is no way this fight doesnt break the record, look at all the prefight promotions and hype, compare that to the little promotion they did for may vs pacquiao, and that fight did 4.6 million buys. This fight will easily break that record no question and no doubt at all, its already 100 percent fact that it will break the record.
Some clowns saying the fight is going to fail lmao, just stop there is 300 million people in america and many of them are casuals and casuals are the demographic that drives the ppv market records, not hardcores. The fight is a joke spectacle but casuals eat this freakshow stuff up out of curiosity.
It's a circus fight boyo. You speak about this chit like it's an actual official boxing match where you can compare it to DLH/Floyd, Canelo/Floyd, Fury/Wlad etc.
And as a passionate boxing fan who buys every PPV, I'm streaming this basura. it doesn't deserve my money.
