    Why would he so openly blab about how they lost money... he seems proud of it.

    PPV is dead after that. The whole bs system should be flatlined.

    don't think anyone is surprised

    like many said long before Floyd/pac got it on

    much of pacs ability to sell was based on the belief hed be the man to shut Floyd up

    then everyone saw his awful performance...and fake excuse...and nobody cares

    I find it odd that Arum would bring up the gay comments.

    This, from a guy who once said that MMA fighters looked like *******uals rolling around on the ground

    Under normal circumstances his lousy ppv numbers would never be made officially public, but this time he can blame it all on Pacquiao's comments on gays and wash his hands off of it.

    Which goes full circle to show once again that Manny should have cut ties with him YEARS ago. One bad monetary result and Bob throws Manny under the bus. Bob was the one who put that **** fight together.

    "Good fights" shouldn't be ppv, only "great fights" are worth paying for in my opinion.

    while i had little interest in seeing this fight a 3rd time, this was two elite fighters with a great undercard and the fight turned out to be a great fight

    unlike most mayweather fights which are snooze feasts

    You thought this fight was a great fight? I guess it was worth the money to you. I didn't pay for it and ,after watching it on HBO, was glad I didn't.

    Great fight? Nah. It wasn´t bad but it was basically the same fight for a third time.
    Pacquiao had already beaten him twice, why was there a need to cough out 60 bucks to see it for a third time?

    I thought it was a decent fight, just not PPV worthy because it's number III.

    If us boxing fans become more selective in what we are willing to pay for, we will get better ppv fights. If we are willing to pay for garbage then that's what we will sometimes get. Mayorga v Mosley ppv. lol
