For $32M, Showtime cut put together 10 or 15 fights like Matthyse/Peterson

You're opinion means $0 to Floyd. Floyd makes in one fight what those guys did in a career. Floyd's nick is "Money" not "Legacy" in case people forgot and there's no dispute he's the best ever from the business side of boxing.

 

9 million gate sales brah

 

Showtime probably only made a little bit back. But if it works out for them long term then that's good.

 

I don't understand how people could find the time to hate on one boxer so much.

If you don't like him, don't support his fights, don't watch, don't pay attention.

Support those you love it's as simple as that.

 

from what i've read in the past, ppv distributor (showtime) only get their share from the ppv buys....but then showtime, along with gbp, was also a promoter for this fight since they guaranteed floyd's money.

 

they are doing that, why you think the fight sold less than expected? i suggest you take your own advice, if you dont like how someone criticizes your favorite, skip the threads, skip the forums, dont pay attention.
