If Floyd/Shane does 2 million ppv buys

I doubt it even makes 1.5 Mil honestly.

 

The buzz around this fight is ridiculous. I'd be shocked if it doesn't break 2 million. I wouldn't be surprised if it did 2.5 million.

 

That number is impossible and ridiculous. People know Shane Mosley and they know Money Mayweather. And this is one of the best 24/7 series EVER. On top of that the buzz around this fight is as high as I've seen for a fight. The only time the buzz was higher than this was for Manny Pacquiao vs Money Mayweather. The buzz was so great for that fight that people who dont even watch boxing and who dont even like boxing were talking about paying to see it.

 

Didn't see your post...I agree with everyhing you said. :good

 

1.5 Million is DAMN good, no DAMN GREAT!

I hope I'm wrong for the sake of boxing, but Mosley can't draw flies to ****, and I'd be surprised if Mayweather can produce 2 million on is own.


Then again it's GBP that's promoting the fight, and they are a hell of a promotional company...it may be possible I guess...but I don't see it happening.

 

It's hitting 2 million I do now believe. People were left outside the gate for the weigh in because it filled up. It's madness in Vegas. Ton of people came in for the fight and don't have a ticket. I'm just counting down the hours til I hit my seat. Floyd is the man.

 

Mayweather has to make Mosley want to retire if he wants to be able to corner emmanuel.

 

You ought to care if you care about future fights. The more money they make the easier the negotiations with Pacquiao for the winner of this one and it's safe to say that's a fight everyone wants.

 

thats dope man...enjoy....wish i was there....i love the weigh ins too!

 

Did anyone read this article on Mayweather's ppv drawing power?

One might point out that 2.44 million of Mayweather’s total buys come from his fight against De La Hoya in 2007 and ask: Is it De La Hoya, the bigger star at the time, who deserves most of the credit?

Not necessarily. Taffet said the difference between the then non-heavyweight-record 1.4 million buys of De La Hoya-Felix Trinidad and the 2.44 million of De La Hoya-Mayweather can be traced to Mayweather’s fan base.

“The large urban centers across America made up the majority of the increase,” Taffet said. “That indicated to me that Floyd Mayweather has tremendous pay-per-view prowess and was driving the urban centers of America.

“Floyd Mayweather played as big a role (in the success of the promotion) as De La Hoya did.”

 

Floyd will still be broke when he is in his 40's

 

I doubt it he will get $58.5 million for this fight, Because he has said himself $40 million, I would think Maybe with 3 million buys his pursue would top $60-70 million
