Pac looked lost in there. May be the occasional got to him.

He didn't throw punches in bunches all the time like he used to in all his previous fight... he tried to box mayweather. Why try to box the most skilled boxer??

[JAD716]

It was the most boring boxing fight I have ever seen. Now Manny is saying that his shoulder was injured going into the fight and Mayweather says he'd give him a rematch. I don't know but after this first one I wouldn't want to see another one and ALOT of people got robbed $$$ cause of this.

Based on some of the early figures coming in, the number of pay-per-view buys for Mayweather-Pacquiao will be closer to 5.63 million and could go even higher.

We already know DirecTV sold 1.15 million PPVs, Dish Network sold 500,000, and AT&T's uVerse and Verizon's Fios combined to sell 600,000. That means the satellite and phone companies combined to sell 2.25 million.

Those numbers alone make Mayweather-Pacquiao the second-biggest PPV draw ever. But we are not even close to being finished. We don't know the numbers for the cable companies yet, and according to Iole they typically account for 55% to 65% of total buys.

Iole estimated that if cable companies made up 60% of the sales, the final number of PPV buys would be about 5.625 million. Even if we take the low end of the percentage estimate, the minimum number of PPV sales would be 5 million, with the high end at 6.43 million.

The implications for the bank accounts of Mayweather and Pacquiao are staggering. At the end of the day, Mayweather is going to take home $250 million to $275 million, with Pacquiao clearing $170 million to $190 million.

Not bad for a fight that took less than an hour.

Holy crap...

What was the biggest PPV draw ever in boxing?

[Hubs]

They are talking about a rematch, are you interested?

[Hubs]

Who should Mayweather fight for his final fight?

[Tooth]

Pacquiao was injured before the fight started. Legally it should have never happened. But for the loser, $100 million to fight with one arm is not bad at all

[Hubs]

Can't believe he is fighting BERTO as his final fight
