It wont even do 1.5 mil. Everyone already knows who Floyd and Manny are fighting next and Maidana has little chance of competing. I wouldnt be shocked to see Floyd suddenly talk positively about him fighting Manny next... again.
So you think it will do several hundred thousand in UK, on boxnation I think it is? Is that even PPV? I thought it was on Boxnation, subscription service. Basically - landing on Premium channel in UK, just like Froch/Groves in PPV in UK but landing on Premium HBO over here. Pretty sure I saw a press release for Boxnation having bought the rights, and it was landing on regular premium subscription in UK. Maybe I missed where its a PPV there as well, if so that will help.
That's the way I see it. Boxing wants to make you believe that it's your duty as a fan to buy all of the PPV's, you need to support the sport so buy the PPV's. I don't mind buying the big matchups where there is a lot of anticipation like Martinez vs. JCC Jr, Pac vs. Marquez, Floyd vs. Cotto, but these routine PPV's (and Pacquiao has been in them too, not just singling out Floyd) I can do without.
Floyd fighting Pacs great-grandson, how embarrassing Lets have a quick look at the family tree: Pac>Bradley>Alexander>Maidana What an absolute disgrace. And Floyds fans lap this **** up :rofl
since when is Angulo a huge draw? that fight was not PPV worthy, 2 guys coming off losses, so it's hardly a surprise it did 300 K Canelo-Floyd was 2.2 million because it was properly hyped + Canelo's fanbase + 600-700 K Floyd regulars, despite turning out to be little more than a sparring session, no matter what CJ Ross' scorecard said
