    Put the $ to the left of the number, swamp donkey.

      $30 Billion? I heard it was $750 Trillion.

      Might have lost $30 million.

        Strange, I thought this was a DISCUSSION board.

        Done.

          That number is too high but I personally streamed the fight I'm not going to pay for a fight when I can get it free and certainly not when I know who is going to win

            Your girl spends her nights dreaming of donkey ****, rather than your limp shrimp noodle.

              Copyright is the only reason why these premium cable networks can charge $100 for a f'n PPV. Back in 2010 I only paid $5 to watch a HBO or Showtime PPVboxing match on flashstreamsports. Flashstreamsports no longer streams HBO or Showtime programs, gee I wonder why.

              If Showtime thinks that consumers are just going to fork over $100 to watch an event, it's just proof that these networks only care about the bottom line. I wish the US was more like China when it comes to piracy.

                I think earning $300,000,000 for a single night's worth of work is more than fair.

                  Ironically, it was Floyd who set the mold for these pay demands which has grinded the ability of this sport to produce stars to a halt. What WILL Floyd's legacy really be in 2 years?

                    its 2017. People are going to stream. Shutting down a few of the illegal streams you find isn't going to do ****.
