    it will be interesting to see. i give rios about as much chance of beating pac as i gave robert of beating floyd. this fight is selling itself on excitement alone since theyre both comming off losses. i do know that everyone who guaranteed floyd guerrero would do over a million is going to agree with you.

    I am much smarter than you and have the degrees to prove it.
    Showtime cant force Mayweather to do anything he doesnt want to do. They knew what they were getting into. You cant force a fighter to fight someone.

    Here is the thing what are these fight you claim people want to see? Canelo? What after that list them.......


    From fat Dan
    Robert (Marlborough)

    At what point does CBS/Showtime enforce Mayweather to fight Canelo or Trout? Can't they just get out of that contract if it doesn't meet certain numbers?
    Dan Rafael (12:01 PM)

    I dont have the actual contract but my understanding is that CBS/Showtime cannot force any particular fight. Various names in the contract, from what I understand, have different guarantees. As far as if they can get out of the deal with Floyd I am not certain about that but I would imagine the deal must have some sort of out clause depending on various scenarios.

    :rofl you could spend the rest of your life collecting degrees and you would never be smarter than i was at 12 years old. you are the worst type of idiot, the kind that blinds himself to his own stupidity because a piece of paper from the university of phoenix tells him hes one of the smart ones, lol.
    by the way, that last paragraph by fat dan is exactly what i was saying yesterday when all you clowns were talkin bout floyd gets his money no matter what.

    That would make you more educated, not smarter, but a more educated man would know the difference. Talk about a major FAIL! :rofl

    I don't think that is a bad number. The Ghost isn't exactly a huge name in boxing. I would say that is a solid ppv showing for Floyd.

    It'd be a very good number if the network wasn't guaranteeing him 32m.

    The fight was on every segment of the playoffs, and branding Guerrero as a Giant hard hitting killer. They had a 30 minute special on cBS

    Major fail with all the promotion they did on T.V

    Fights was on every single commercial segment of espn.

    Anything above 500k in ppv buys is good numbers. Those were prime Felix Trinidad numbers back in the day.

    Like I said those are great numbers for a niche sport like boxing.
