"Even if the he Maidana rematch is not a PPV knockout, it will still make Mayweather the undisputed PPV king with roughly 14 million career buys for his 12 PPV appearances for HBO and Showtime. Manny Pacquiao ranks second on the all-time list with more than 13 million buys. The two longtime PPV stars are nearing the end of their careers, but the long discussed face-off between the two would still likely top the 2.5 million record buys set by Mayweather and Oscar De La Hoya in 2007. Time is running out though and the blood feud between Top Rank/HBO/Bob Arum and Mayweather/Showtime/Al Haymon shows little sign of softening."

now I'm no fight promoter

but I'd guess having the top 2 draws in the sport

fight each other

would be a record payday

I'm hearing $1B guesstimates

how many times does he have to fight the likes of the Maidanas of the world

to get that #?

can you see how that is an L if you want to argue $$$ ?
