the kind that knows that no fight is selling 1.7 million ppv buys except for a Mayweathr/pacquiao fight. Well idk about that even now
I think Mayweather Canelo does between 1.4 and 1.6 million if it has the same pricetag as his last 2 fights which is really good. I need to see the undercard and a little of the promotion. Cotto is a proven viewers grabber with the Margarito, Pacquiao and Mayweather fights. Canelo can bring viewers too, but I haven't seen him on his on ppv yet to compare his drawing power.
Can do 1.8 if they push all the right buttons. That's why I'm surprised about the May date and Canelo not having one more outing. Maybe even more surprised Floyd wouldn't be having any kind of tune-up in the form of Guerrero. But May > September.
Why cant they put an attractiv undercardfight include an american fighter against a Puerto Rican fighter Its so much money in involved Arum should be generous
im not surprised about the numbers. people didn't want to get robbed of their money. manny/jmm did 1.4 mill.
You're always a skeptic. You didn't think May/Cotto would do 1.5 either -- was my exact prediction. :yep
they shouldn't but they do, all in the name of projecting themselves as being more successful than they really are.
same here. shut the hell up. You're just making **** up http://sports.yahoo.com/box/news?slug=ki-boxnumbers092509 "After months of being pummeled by suggestions that boxing is dying, Floyd Mayweather Jr. gave his sport a big boost on Friday by delivering a higher-than-expected pay-per-view result for his Sept. 19 fight in Las Vegas with Juan Manuel Marquez. HBO released figures showing that Mayweather’s one-sided victory over Marquez following a 21-month absence sold 1 million on pay-per-views and accounted for $52 million in pay-per-view revenue. That figure does not include the proceeds from tickets sold at movie theaters around the country, which Golden Boy Promotions chief executive officer Richard Schaefer said were at about 80 percent capacity."
My constant optimism is probably influenced by my location though. In South Phoenix, **** basically shuts down when there's a Floyd fight. Cars parked and flooded in the neighborhood streets with everybody at a fight party/barbecue type thing. Like every ****in house for blocks. The coverage Canelo gets on the networks like Univision and Telemundo in the southwest is nuts. It'll sell. And real ****in well. :yep Especially with how the date will be drawing closer and hype reaches boiling point. :deal
