    "No official numbers yet on #theone but multiple sources in PPV industry & involved say fight is going well over 2M buys w/ shot at record"

    They did a hell of a job promoting this fight. It looks like it will pay off.

    I was hoping/expecting 2.1m

    Id love for floyd to smash his old record... What an exclamation point on his career...
     
  3. Wouldn't surprise me, the fight was massive, even those barbaric cage fighters were trying to get close to Floyd, hoping that he might recognize them.

    Well it wasent all Floyd the crowds were mainly for canelo through the whole thing..
    Without Canelo he would be lucky to do 1.1 million vs other opponents

    If this gets close to the record, imagine what Floyd vs Pac would've done......or could still do.

    You twit. Floyd is taking the easy path for big bucks and you're congratulating him. He is turning boxing into wrestling wwf or whatever. It's just a show. It is why ufc is taking over from boxing. Real fights, real champs, no ducking.

    Don't get me wrong, I don't like ufc, but boxing is being destroyed by these crap over marketed fights.

    easy route? Many people were talking crap saying he'd never fight Canelo and how Canelo is the toughest fight for him to take

    oh wow...I wouldn't be surprised if they beat the revenue record...but outright ppv buys? that'll be something in this economy of today.
    shows you the drawing power of Floyd AND Canelo. Canelo will carry the torch after Floyd retires.

    Glad to know that taking on the #1 ranked fighter in a division, who was 13 years younger, while also being out-weighed by 15 pounds in the ring is the "easy path" for you..... Idiot.

    Don't you know? Floyd isn't fighting guys in the 160lb and above divisions so he's taking the easy path....
