    That's completely insane if that turns out to be true. That would be like a million more than his fights with Hoya and Canelo combined.

    Too bad it wasn't a great fight. Boxing could have used the positive exposure.

    It just shows how much of a star Pac-Man is. Floyd could never have made that on his own. Look at Floyd vs Guerrero, did next to nothing in PPV buys. But Floyd set records with Canelo and Pac-Man who are the biggest stars in the sport.

    No one is doing huge numbers by themselves. Floyd vs. Guerrero though did almost 1M buys. Meanwhile, Pacquiao's fight with Algieri did like 300K. And as big of star as Canelo supposedly is, he's fighting on regular HBO this Saturday.

    That's crazy, if true. I find that almost impossible to believe.

    No doubt Floyd is the biggest star, but it takes 2 to tengo. Also Canelo was much more marketable when he was undefeated. Which is why the catchweight vs Floyd though it made him a lot of money, also hurt his marketability.

    I seriously doubt this fight even breaks 1 million. $99.95 is too expensive.

    That would really make Mayweather think about the rematch he loves money

    If it really made that much money and Floyd doesn't take a rematch it shows he is truly scared of Pac-Man.
