    Dan Rafael:

    "PPV industry source on #MayweatherBerto numbers tells me they're very poor relatively speaking. 'Being generous is might hit 550,000 buys.'"

    If true, what do you think?

    Oh my gosh, if Canelo/Cotto and GGG/Lemieux succeed that all hell will break loose in the boxing world and I will LOVE IT.

    I don't know what drives people to pay for fights in the US but I for one wouldn't stay up late to watch that event without the undercard, specially the Jack vs Groves and Martinez vs Salido fights. If people bought the fight for the main event, then it's a superb PPV performance considering it was more of a lame prolonged sparring session than an actual title bout.
