    It's more of a card with named fighters but not a stacked card. Mayweather always do this to this to get high PPV buys.

    You do realise show time will be able to cancel this contract if they wish.

    Anyway all that rubbish Mayweather posted on instagram about him getting $70 million after PPV number come in has turned out to be lies.

    Floyd will probably retire now. He's happy to make money fighting slow flat-footed plodders like Ortiz, Maidana and Canelo, but if Showtime tell him he has to fight skilled fighters like Lara or Pacquiao, Floyd will just retire with his "0", the fruit of years of ducking.

    Floyd is old fashioned. His 0 is a symbol of his vagina, which is really protected from getting popped.

    Yet another TMZ Gimp circulated rumour with not an ounce of fact behind it.
    Wishful thinking from the haters.

    No official numbers have been released but they soon will be.

    They aren't going anywhere.

    And correct me if I'm wrong, but, we're 3 fights into the contract with Showtime, and they have sold approximately 4 million+ PPVs. That's over 1 million buys per contest on average. (We'll call it a 1.33 Million average)

    So if they are averaging approximately 1.33 million buys per contest, how is "Showtime flopping?"

    They are already over 3 million buys for Guerrero and Canelo. After Maidana they will certainly be at over 4 million. They are going to be averaging about 1.4 million buys per fight through 3 fights. Yea, it's "not looking good." :roll:

    So now it takes more than 1.5 million to break even? Make up your mind you idiot... LOL

    I just told you: they've sold over 3 million just for Canelo and Guerrero. That meets your own idiotic made up criteria for "breaking even" as the average for those two events would be over 1.5 million.

    They only need like 1 million from the Maidana fight to keep a 1.3-1.4 million PPV buy average. Yea, they are "flopping" ... GTFOH
