    Showtime should try to get this fight on regular cable instead of PPV.
    (It will be a bad look to go from this last weekends numbers to that)

    Build another supercard around the event.

    After Mayweather fought Hoya, he fought Hatton and that fight did 900k buys. Every fight doesn't need to be a mega fight. Besides, Showtime can't afford to put the fight on regular cable. Although network television is a possibility.

    The problem with Mayweather now is that he's not going to take less than 20-25 million even fighting a scrub.
    You cant pay Mayweather that type of money if the sale rate is less than 1 million.

    He made $20MM against Hatton and that did under 1MM buys. Fans shouldn't worry too much about that anyway. Let promoters and networks work out the financials. Mayweather will fight at least 4 more times, and all 4 fights will be against highly ranked, championship caliber fighters.

    your eyes deceived you. go back and watch that fight. danny was landing on khan very early in the fight. sure khan was landing on danny...but danny was rolling with those shots to time that perfectly set up hook.

    danny is a waaaaay better counter puncher than canelo will ever be. plus danny can show floyd different looks. he'll fight every minute of every round til the final bell and won't just follow floyd around mindlessly doing the same **** over and over again. garcia is an intelligent fighter. i think he's a fight or two away from being in a position to possibly beat floyd. he can compete with floyd now...but i think floyd wins by decision.

    nothing in their first fight give garcia cause for concern. danny stops him in the rematch.
