So it didn't sell out. But I have no doubts that the PPV numbers are good. Not as tremendous as Schaefer would expect, obviously.

I've lowered my estimate to 1.5 million buys.
But if it takes 2 million for the Pac fight to be off and force Floyd to fight either Martinez or Williams, then I'm gonna root for that.
After seeing Floyd hurt Mosley tonight, I have no desire to see him fight Pacquiao.

I previously thought Pac might outwork Floyd, and I counted on Floyd not being that big a puncher at 147, and Manny being able to last the distance.
After tonight, I can't see Manny lasting the distance with Floyd.
