    Floyd ... "It takes 4 to 6 months to promote a fight"
    Floyd ..."All my fights are mega-fight"

    I hope he will announce it soon. It'll be Garcia.

    Thread title: "Two months four weeks to go..."

    Don't you think you could have just said 3 months?

    Ain't happening. Someone else mentioned golden boy has that date at MGM, I doubt they'll give it up to Floyd after he walked away like a bitter gf.

    A personal check can change that quickly.

    Barely 3 months. His next fight will tank again just like the last.

    800-900K may be a tank by his standards, but not by the standards of boxing PPV's in general.

    They're talking at least 1.3 or 1.5 million PPV's to breakeven. 800K is "tanked". No other way to spin it.

    Who are "they," exactly?

    Because I've read a bunch of interviews with the top brass at Showtime. They directly speak to that claim. They deny and use words like "ridiculous" to explain the rumor that Showtime needs 1.5M buys to break even.

    lol@they...."they" refers to a group of *******s on boxing forums with a clear agenda....

    these are the same people who, when faced with a link that floyd is the highest paid athlete, tell us "worrying about anothers mans money or finances is gay. yall are on floyds dick so bad. who cares about an athletes money".

    its pretty pathetic....

    then theyll be like ...

    its hard to believe floyd cant find an opponent yet, after all haymond has such a great stable full of ppv draws...maybe a money team fighter , they also have big draws, right??

    I Love these guys. Must be accountants for Showtime.

    Every time I hear a different "they need to make x amount of PPVs just to break even"

    Then you question them, and they say "God Dont you realise how much it costs them to promote a fight" to which I reply "do you?"

    I really cant see the highest paid Athlete not making Show time money. And if he is the highest Paid Athlete in the world, and Show time are losing money, do you really think he, or us should care?

    he must believe in the naiveness of the fans that they'll buy a no-name without a proper promo
