    in between rounds is only 60 seconds right?
    People keep talking about advertising being the main way Al Haymon is going to cake off this deal. Will there need to be adjustments to fit full length commercials in there?

    Inscreen commercials (as we've seen from South America) would be a option I guess.

    There will be timeouts during the rounds,when fighters will take a 30 second break, and commercials for Toyota will come on.

    Also fighters will now fight in a full body outfit that will be covered head to toe in sponsorship, like in Nascar.

    Fight will offer their names to the highest bidder.
    I for one see big things for Ievgyn "Uncle Bens sweet and sour Chow-Main" Khytrov.

    And that's just for starters

    depends if they negotiated to include in between rounds on the telecasts or that inventory ( place to sell advertisements) will be used for actual commercials.

    If they do use that time for commercials there will probably just be some revenue split. They most likely will use NBCs sales team and there will just be a 60-40 split or something of that nature. That's how advertising is handled in most cases.
