    I'd wait for official number but I said I'd be surprised if it hit 1m - no Canelo on the undercard and no marketable opposition...

    Floyd got paid 32 mil to fight Guerrero. He probably don't give a **** what it does. He has his guarantee.

    What interesting is will Floyd get 32 mil for alexander?

    Floyd should fight Canelo or maybe Martinez. Those are the legacy fights.

    But didn't you say the card will do 1.5 million sales?.......800k-900k is great for everybody but not by Floyd's standards and Showtime's hopes with the money they invested.

    If these #'s are true and Showtime has to take it out of their non-PPV boxing programming, in the short term, this really hurts Golden Boy and their fighters.
    Either Golden Boy makes less attractive matchups to save $, or, the fighters get paid less.

    In the long run, I'd guess that this could lead to somewhat of a reconciliation with HBO as Golden Boy looks for other revenue sources.

    This PPV got under 1 Million because of Floyds opponent... Has nothing to do with Floyd acting civil!

    44-0 are the only "numbers" that really matter at the end of the day :deal

    Oh My ****ing god! If he fights Alexander next that would be soo lame! I mean Alexander is on the same level as Guerrero.. That was Floyds tune-up.. Time to fight Canelo, Martinez, Trout, Pac, Lara Etc... He needs to man the **** up... The little ho! :deal

    If they needed 1.1m to break even, that means they could be losing 10-15m+. You can put on 20 solid dates headlined by the likes of Mares PDL/Moreno for that much.

    Mosley agreed to testing and beat the brakes off your hero Margo in grand fashion. PBF never fought Berto but Guerrero did beat the **** outta him.

    Nobody has confirmed it. Showtime folks are saying not enough #'s in to make an educated guess, so they're questioning what sources Fat Dan has. But of course any hint at any news on Floyd is massive on ESB. **** ton of pages on this thread already and numbers probably won't be released until the end of the week. :lol:
