    People don't realize the exposure he got in the PAC fight. This will do surprisingly big numbers.

    Your trolling game has become so weak. Mayweather actually fighting Pacquiao seems to have left you bereft of ideas; a 'man' without a purpose.

    Get well soon MVC!

    It'll probably do $600K which would be good for anyone else other than him. This fight is getting a backlash I rarely see.

    Similar to Guerrero and Ortiz but who cares?

    It's his last fight and I expect people to tune in.

    I could care less about the numbers. I care about the fight. It's ****. As a diehard Mayweather fan, I can tell you with this one, more people that are real fans of Floyd are on my side of thinking than the side that's willing to take any b.s. fight.

    No one's saying it's a good fight!!

    It is ****, but it's his last fight and I expect many to be paying, including me. :deal

    He's fought everyone in his era, it's time for him to go.

    Floyd just did over 4 million ppv buys in one fight. He doesn't give a **** this fight does 400k. Its his last fight and Berto will probably give him a tougher fight than Manny did. Matter of fact this fight will look like Mayweather vs Chavez.

    You said the same thing about Maidana 1 and 2.

    It was pit against a game 7 of an NBA playoff series, and I believe GSP's fight was on the same day

    Gotta give him some leeway there.

    The exposure from the pac fight wasn't good. The fight sucked and people blame May just as much as Manny. It hurt them both.

    It was the casual fan and people who never watch boxing that tuned into Pac-May event that made it a must see.This one doesn't come close but still I predict about 750-800 thousand buys.Mayweather just seems to have that power.

    Negative publicity is just as effective as positive publicity. People pay to watch him lose, they know that this is the last time they'll be able to do that. So they'll pay.

    I see this doing better than most people expect.

    I have been talking to many people in regards to purchasing this fight and a lot of people I know will be shelling out big buckz to watch this.

    People pay to watch him lose- very true. However, everyone knows he's going to win so you lose that crowd...and it's a very big crowd.

    A lot of them shelled out in Maidana 1/Guerrero/Ortiz, so we don't have to worry about this.

    Berto definitely CAN win, just unlikely. Casuals will be hyped for this when time draws near. :yep

    Always happens.
