Haven't decided yet. Need to know if HHH, Justin Bieber, and 50 Cent are gong to be in his corner this time before making my final decision.

f*** yeah, the only way I could see Maidana winning is if he doesn't gas out again. Props to his camp for firing that Ariza bum

dave
Tonight is going to be a big one because there is real speculation that Floyd Mayweather Jr. won't pop a big number because he's come back so soon against the same opponent in Marcos Maidana. With a $32 million purse, you need huge numbers to make out and as much as the move upped Showtime's profile in boxing, aside from the Canelo Alvarez fight, which may have hurt Alvarez as the future big thing so it was quick results while sacrificing the next king early, his fights have done huge business but not considering the overhead. It's a combination of the high price and the quick return of a result that was not really all that controversial. If tonight's fight does 1.25 million buys, which it probably won't, Floyd will become the first man in history to top $1 billion in generated PPV revenue. At this point Floyd had headlined shows that have done 13.62 million buys and generated $913 million in revenue.

I'd watch if it was only $9.99. Guess I'll watch Nitro instead.

Boxing is more fixed than the WWE al haymon pull the strings, he's the manager of both Mayweather and Maidana, the guy operates in secret, he doen't have an office, or an answering machine, has never done a televised interview.

No Bieber and no Triple H in Mayweather's corner. Either they're making a run-in later in the fight or things are taken seriously now.

Floyd is actually respecting Maidana as a fighter, he looks cautious weird
