    It might well be after the fight though. I bet 99% of those who forked out the cash to watch it really regret doing so now.

    Still amazing number regardless, 5.6 was way to optimistic.

    So total revenue is going to be around 530 million give or take a few. That looks like Floyd is getting a 300 mil gross payday....

    Unreal.

    Again I repeat, where's one of the many idiots on here that laughed at me for saying this will do 4+ million?. :lol: I honestly can't be bothered to dig and search for parasites in the history and would very much prefer if the losers show up themselves. I'm not holding my breath for them though, that's for sure.

    Did that fight make $500 million? Did Koki make 200+ million? Do people outside of Japan even know who he is? Did the world care about that fight? Wlad did 10.5 million in Germany against Pulev, more succesful than May-Pac? I think not.

    And? Did those viewers pay 100USD each to see him fight?
    That 4.4 is not how many people watched it, its how many PPVs were purchased.

    The facts that Floyd is a free agent after Sept makes it certain he will negotiate for #50. He planned it all along. Just gives him more leverage.

    But will HBO work with Al Haymon?

    For not having to share the $$$$$ pot with Showtime and for one fight? Sure they will. A rematch would still do over 2 mil buys. It is a hiuge money fight.

    I thought it'd do 2.8 to 3.2 mil. Wow.

    HBO would likely take it. Floyd is good buisness, they built Canelo up on his undercards.
