Espinoza is worried. CBS probably spent millions of dollars on promotion plus the guarantee for both fighters. They may end up with a negative balance sheet again. Bulk of the money all went inside Floyd's pockets. This will become obvious when Showtime can't produce meaningful fights for the rest of the year.

Worried? You mean he's doing his job as CEO of Showtime sports?
Y'all said Showtime lost on Mayweather fights but it seems to me they'll do anything for him.

A similar legal move took place back in 2015, when Mayweather fought Manny Pacquiao - which had an identical pay-per-view price tag. Showtime and HBO sued for "anticipated" copyright infringement � and the court granted a temporary injunction. It ordered the sites to be taken offline prior to the start of the fight through the next morning.

Ah bummer... The fight was still found on time and in 720p ... Pretty... For 50 streams they gonna hold, 100 more will appear... Also you can't do nothing against community streams (P2P) ... I haven't paid for a PPV for about 5 years... Me happy ...

Sorry...

Yep. Many people canceled their subscriptions because Showtime hardly produce fights the rest of the super fight year 2015. You can check it out yourself if you want. 2015 after May.
