    Default Mayweather's claim to crush Wrestlemania's PPV record of 1.4 million stays a dream

    WrestleMania 24, featuring Floyd Mayweather Jr. vs. The Big Show, did well below the WWE's expectations. The event had a buyrate of 1,058,000 million buys with a profit number of $23.8 million. During a recent conference call with investors, the company denied paying Mayweather anywhere close to $20 million dollars. Most insiders says the real number is closer to $5 million.

    Last year's WrestleMania 23 featuring Donald Trump had a buyrate of 1,200,000 and made $24 million dollars. The company was hoping to surpass last year's number by a significant amount with the involvement of Mayweather.
    "Very few people really understand what it means to be a fighter. I hate it when I hear someone say, 'That fighter doesn't have guts. I hate that, I don't care if you're a world champion six times over or a four-round fighter, to step inside that ring, you have to have guts" Oscar De La Hoya

    Did somebody forget to tell Vince Mcmahon that the fans don't particularly dig Floyd Mayweather? lol If he wanted that number surpassed he should have hired Oscar De La Hoya.

    Yea, how can anyone defend him fighting the Big Show for less than he would make to fight Miguel Cotto. It's a joke I tell you, especially considering The Big Show is so much bigger. Mayweather must have trained harder than he ever has in his life for that 5 mill

    I guarantee you that Cotto will be getting at least 8 Million to fight Margarito. Do you think Cotto vs Mayweather would be a less lucrative fight?

    It would be twice as big. Floyd would easily make 20 million vs Cotto. We all know Floyd loves cash

    Oh I'm sure he would, wasn't really making any comment of what Floyd would make fighting any boxer.. But Five million to get in a ring and playfight, for one night, doesn't sound to bad to me.. If he could do that anytime he wanted why the hell box.

    Agreed. Not that pro wrestling is without its risks, but 5 mil for one night, without the need of 2 months of hard, rigourous training, and without the punishment that would be absorded by fighting someone like Hatton or Cotto. Pretty sweet deal for FLoyd.

    Shame they couldnt have made the big show vs mayweather a REAL FIGHT! Instead of scripted choreographed wrestling entertainment.

    Now that woulda been fun

    Watching the big show throw lil mayweather around the ring and sit on him hahahahaha.

    Without any disrespect, I was being sarcastic, and you don't know what I was talking about. I don't understand most of your posts either though, so no worries.
