Even if it's under 1 Million, you know that GBP will count every movie ticket sale as one PPV purchased lol and it will end up at the 1 Million but internally, we know that Showtime is hurting from this. Who cares, It isn't my money; I just enjoy boxing, and that's all.... They are all way much richer than any of us, and none of them care about how much money we make. So i just pray for them... especially Robert who guaranteed God would have him win...
The reason to care is, it's gonna blow through Showtime's boxing budget. You know at least half the big names compete exclusively on Showtime.
Exactly, well said. It takes this sort of result in the numbes and people not paying for the PPV for Showtime or HBO to listen and try and get a better fighter.
clearly as he has shown wants nothing to do with pacman, definitely wants nothing to do with canelo, khan i doubt it
Floyd get's paid regardless but I am sure Al Haymon and GBP will try to sell Canelo to Floyd. But I honestly doubt that fight gets made, I don't know why.... but I don't expect that fight. PBF would blow out Canelo, but he just doesn't want to take the risk. Heek at this point, I think Pac vs. PBF would do great numbers still... Let's see how Pac comes out vs. Rios... PBF is a good business man, he isn't sweating the #'s.... Showtime is because they guaranteed so much money regardless.
Showtime has no 1else pulling in over 500k so they will be more then happy,this was just the 1st fight
Mayweather needs to fight prime, worthy opposition for a change. Cotto was a good start, but the fight was too late in the making. Cotto is a real champion, not a ****ing paper-champ mandatory; therefore, the fight was actually competitive. The casuals knew Guerrero had no chance.
It's unusual for the network to be offering huge guarantees for PPVs. It's usually the promoter that's taking the risk, so it's easy to forget about his
He should fight better opposition. Handpicking Guerrero for an easy fight and having the Guerrero's father yell insults at the press conference obviously does not sell.
Why yall trying to take some unsubstantiated PPV numbers and use them as a vehicle to spit more of your ****ed up hate on Floyd. Fact still remains that he took the Ghost ( whom balls most of yall was licking before the fight) in the ring and did some serious ghost busting on his ass. The numbers may or may not add up for this fight but I will wager that from the demonstration he put on the Ghost's ass, People are gonna start lining up in the right numbers for his next fight. People is going to wanna see him put on a similar show. All it takes is for Showtime to tighten up their promotional game Because Money did his part and busted up a ghost.
