    Showtime will want to comeback on PPV numbers but the next big draw available to fight Floyd is Khan and Khan has to look good on his next fight to convince them he is their man. If he doesn't, I can't imagine who would be next in line. Add to that the fact that Canelo wants to take Cinco de Mayo and he has plenty of very good big money options to choose from between HBO and Golden Boy, its looking very difficult for Showtime to compete.....

    Danny Garcia

    He has the on paper credibility of being the best JWW in the world with some big wins on his resume and he also draws viewers and interest. Look no further than his "worst mismatch and fight ever made" against Salka drawing decent numbers for Showtime.

    Danny could be a good pick. The only downside is that he has the Herrera fight sandwiched between two great wins. Angel can help sell the fight by going at it vs Roger and Sr but it would still not do as good without the Mexican presence. They really need to stack the undercard...

    Cotto-Canelo would blow that **** out of the water lol. PR vs.Mex with their two biggest stars. The only fight that could compete with canelo-cotto is Pac-Mayweather.

    Also the other downside could be the all access episodes. now that Mayweather saying it was all scripted and staged.

    He will most likely lose some viewers after that to not tune in for the all access episodes which also helps with the promotion of the fight. Some boxing fans will not be falling for it again.

    Mayweather claimed, however, that both were staged for the television show.

    "With 'All Access,' we're able to edit and chop footage the way we want," he said.

    I agree that there is nobody out there to really compete with Canelo/Cotto other than Pac.

    Most boxing fans watch all access/24/7 for the boxing clips, the fighters talking about the fight etc.

    Most people dont give a single **** about what is said and done outside of it.

    All-Access wont lose any views

    HBO has regained the title of the network of Champions with the Canelo signing.Cotto-Canelo will bury anything that Mayweather can do.
    Watch the undercards suddenly be of significant value for a change and we the fans win.Good call by Oscar and HBO.

    Not scripted, dramatized. They can't make it look like something happened that didn't, but they can make it look like it happened more than it really did. Make sense?

    You make it sound like everyone studied a script and made a movie lol
