    It isn't the worst to me considering the conflict with the NBA, unknown opponent, and no nationalistic fervor for the opponent.

    nah, not good enough.

    Massive figures. But the fact floyd wouldn't do 50/50 before. He then destroys him in PPV sales. Unless Manny can agree to a lower perentage, this fight isnt happening.

    Yea 800k for Manny is a failure, Manny is a 1m PPV fighter. But I'm sure that if this was on Cinco De Mayo with Alvarez on the undercard he would have hit 1m plus PPV.

    Arum has no intentions of getting the Floyd fight.

    i would agree with you. but floyd has done enough to mess this fight up himself.

    Mainly the changing his mind about offering a split of ppv revenue.

    So if you can't see that its as much floyds fault then i have no time for your boxing opinion

    He can't carry everything himself, 800k is decent enough considering he was fighting against a guy who can't draw flies to ****.

    800K is low but expected by anyone who is realistic.....Pac doesn't seem to be able to sell a fight with a no name like Mayweather can.

    If Manny needed the fight to be on Cinco De Mayo to maximise his PPV then he should have booked that date.....it his promoters failure!

    Even if it was I don't know how much it would increase his numbers....

    Initially I thought that. With the aftermath, with how many people gave a damn about it, on twitter, celebrities, it was just like another big Pac fight. With the after-fight PPV sales expected to be more than normal due to the controversy I could see it breaking a million now.

    i don't even want to see a Pac-Floyd fight anymore. It would be a one sided massacre. Rather see Floyd fight at MW. That's the only way he'll lose.

    you know floyd offered 50-50 with a cut off before, arum still didn't accept, was that floyds fault too?

    also in more recent times. arum: ''50-50 is not the only issue''

    I think you're going out of topic.
