    Exactly!

    Let Cotto-Canelo proceed with their May date. Pacquiao-Mayweather doesn't need this Mexican date to sell their fight. It will sell itself.

    because the 2 statements are not incompatible.

    another 51 saturdays are available, but predictably floyd's apologists are desperate to paint this as manny ducking.

    When Floyd was quiet, you said it's because he's scared. You *****ed and moaned about his silence. Now that he's talking you say he's just pretending. Just admit it, you won't be happy with whatever he does. Just come out and say it. There's nothing he can do to satisfy you, not even fighting Pac will satisfy you.

    Floyd was backed into a corner what did you expect him to say I don't want to fight pacman on live tv and make himself look more of a coward:lol:

    The better question is, what did YOU expect him to say?

    I'm starting to believe you'd prefer he fight Khan.

    I think its well known now showtime are losing money on floyd that is not what they expected they thought they would be making money of him let me break it down you

    Just Do the math. $240 million for 6 fights. That's $40 million a fight. If they average 1 million buys per fight, that's $55 million, not including the live gate which may be $5 million. So after Floyd gets his $40 mil, there's only $20 million left to pay the other fighter, the promoter, the sanctioning fees, the site fee, the hundreds who labor on everything else, and advertisement, transportation and a hundred other expenses. THEY ARE LOSING MONEY ON FLOYD

    part of the reason why you hear floyd taking about pacman is because moonves has stepped in and gave him a good talking to he really does not want it himself

    if the fight with pac happens which i doubt it is not because floyd wants it

    its because he was forced to take it

    You forgot to reduce the PPV buys by 50% which goes to the cable distributors.Using your numbers then -1 million buys @ $55=$55 million less 50%=$27.5 million.
    Now you can begin your equations.
