At this point I think he could make good money on a Berto fight. About equal to a Shane fight, really. Berto has a belt.. He's a young undefeated fighter. It ain't about selling the fight to you, or "forum goers" in general, but about selling the fight to the public, and I think he could do that. Shane is notoriously treated with this sort of brutal indifference by your casual fan. His age, and multiple losses automatically puts him in the hole. Not to purists and forumers, naturally, because they are a bit more knowledgeable, but to the rest, oh yes. Its all about perfection nowadays, the good old days are gone. The only thing he has going for him is that he called out Mayweather on a highly circulated PPV, which will get him some play. But, Mayweather, as I stated before, harbors some resentment from that incident still, I would bet you. Maybe even enough to take, say, 800k ppv buys instead of 1 million just to shut SSM out of the process.
