    Pacquiao vs Mosley did over a million buys on Showtime. I have no doubt Floyd would do the same.

    :yep It will be lower than recent numbers, but I think he can still pull a million.

    Initially thought it would do 1.0 to 1.2 and I won't back off of that yet, but yeah, it feels absolutely flat as hell. Almost nobody even seems to give a ****, but there has been and is quite a lot going on in the weeks leading up to it that people are interested in.

    The difference in speed from Cotto to Mosley fight is apparent when the footage shows the recent fights on this Mayweather media stream.

    It'll do a million plus buys, pretty much a no brainer, it's those that keeping hoping for failure at his every turn that makes him that much greater a draw.

    If people watch Floyd to see him lose and nobody knows about Guerrero or nobody thinks he can win does that hurt the PPV sales? You'd think it would be a hard sell if that was the case.

    usually every floyd fight there is a bill board on my street not this time. usually getting texted about an hearing people talk about it, think casual fans might be phasing out a little bit with it, its the same thing to them, floyd dominates, plus manny lost so there is no prospect of that. still sell good though

    hoping for failure?

    i am hoping for greatness.

    and robert guerrero is not someone that is seeking greatness would choose for as an opponent.

    and thats why may 4 is failure.

    absolute garbage.

    kudos to canelo for telling floyd to **** off.

    canelo/trout shouldve been made for may 4.

    that **** would be classic.

    because i dont know a single person whose not suffering from floyd **** syndrome that would pay to see the floyd garbage when they could get canelo/trout for free.

    ****, i would pay for canelo/trout even if floyd was free.
