    On some AP wire reports. Saying that sources from HBO are saying they see the numbers in that range. ding dong kevin is the one that throw out that 1.1 number and *******s started to run with it the day after the fight. All those morons care about is the fight doing fewer then pac did, as if it would make a difference seeing that Floyd has a history of doing better numbers vs the same fighters.

    Yea, it's one thing to want the numbers to be lower than 1.5 so that Floyd doesn't call for more than 50/50 so there isn't more negotiation issue, but they want it to bomb, for whatever reason.

    That 1.1 number has meaning because Floyd spilt of the PPV money doesnt start until after the 1.2 mark because he got a major cut of the money up front. Nothing some of these guys that are so-called reporters are without an agenda.

    He plays the villain so he reaps what he sows. That aside anytime you get over 1m buys its positive right? This time though his hype machine bit off a lot more than they could chew. They predicted 3-4m buys c'mon man... really?

    I think people bought into Schaefer prediction because he was spot on, with the Marquez-Mayweather fight and no one was predicting 1 million for that.

    The *******s were actively protesting the Mayweather fight..lol But the HBO numbers have not been released so just let the gumps gab amongst each other. Either way...lol that **** did better than Pac.. and probably Pac/Cotto when its all said and done.
