Plus the fact that he's really the only notable boxer they've ever had, they couldn't miss out on a one time thing.

MAYWEATHER EFFECT!!!!
Mayweather vs Canelo
http://www.espn.com/boxing/story/_/...-alvarez-fight-gets-highest-mexican-tv-rating
Fight gets record rating for Televisa
Sep 18, 2013
The United States pay-per-view figures for pound-for-pound king Floyd Mayweather Jr.'s one-sided conquest of Mexican hero Saul "Canelo" Alvarez to unify junior middleweight titles last Saturday night at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas have not been announced yet, but viewership figures for the fight in Mexico, where it was on free television, went through the roof.
The fight aired on broadcast network Televisa and generated the highest rating in Mexican television history, according to Golden Boy Promotions, Alvarez's promoter.
Nearly eight of out 10 households in Mexico were tuned into the fight, Golden Boy said. The fight drew a national rating of 41.5, which equals a 77 share of the viewing audience, or 22.1 million viewers and 5.9 million television households, Golden Boy said.
Golden Boy chief executive Richard Schaefer said he spoke to executives from Televisa, who gave him the figures.
The fight telecast peaked with a national rating of 42 for a 78.4 percent share and 22.6 million viewers in 6 million television households. The full telecast, which included undercard fights, generated a 30.1 rating, or 16.2 million viewers and 4.3 million television households.
"Boxing fans demanded 'The One' and when we gave it to them they responded with these record ratings," Schaefer said. "This proves that great fights with great fighters like Floyd Mayweather and Canelo Alvarez will always strike a chord with viewers and that Canelo is undisputed as the biggest star Mexican boxing has today."
Alvarez has never garnered fewer than 7.5 million viewers for his eight appearances on Televisa. His previous high, according to Golden Boy, was for his April victory against Austin Trout, which drew a 28 rating and more than 15 million viewers.
Schaefer told ESPN.com that the figures for the Showtime PPV telecast in the United States were still being compiled but that the fight "definitely did more than 2 million homes" based on figures they already have. That makes Mayweather-Alvarez, at worst, the second-best selling pay-per-view in history.
The record is Mayweather's 2007 victory against Oscar De La Hoya, which did 2.5 million buys on HBO PPV. Whatever the final number is for Mayweather-Alvarez it will break the money record, Schaefer said, because the pay-per-view was more expensive both for the standard-definition and high-definition telecasts.

MANILA - The numbers are in for the free-television broadcast of the long-awaited bout between Filipino boxing icon Manny Pacquiao and unbeaten American Floyd Mayweather, Jr., which was aired simultaneously by three of the country's biggest networks.
The unprecedented, multi-channel airing of "Battle for Greatness: Pacquiao vs. Mayweather" started at 10:00 a.m. on May 3 across four networks -- ABS-CBN, GMA-7, TV5 and local rights holder Solar Sports.
Previously, GMA-7 exclusively aired Pacquiao fights on free TV, but waived this upon the boxer's request so more Filipinos could watch his clash with Mayweather, who won by unanimous decision.
Combined, "Battle For Greatness" averaged 46.9% in nationwide viewership, according to Kantar Media, but it was ABS-CBN that had more Filipinos tuned in to the so-called fight of the century.
The Kapamilya network's telecast registered a national TV rating of 24%, while GMA-7 and TV5 got 20.4% and 2.5%, respectively.
In a statement, ABS-CBN added that its rating peaked at 26.7% for the main bout, beating GMA-7 (23.4%) and TV5 (2.8%) in their respective telecasts.
Through the airing of the undercard bout, ABS-CBN got the biggest viewership with 21.2%. To compare, GMA-7 registered 17.1%, while TV5 garnered 2.1%.
A multi-national market research group, Kantar Media's data is based on a nationwide panel size of 2,609 urban and rural homes that represent 100% of the total Philippine TV viewing population.

So crazy man, just thinking about it. Boxing for like half an hour and BOOM it's like hitting the mega lotto.
The amount Pacquiao and Mayweather made last year, I don't think it'll ever be done again!
They made more individually in 36 minutes than other professional athletes make their ENTIRE career!

That's why Mayweather is #3 in career earnings for athletes across all sports behind only Tiger Woods and Michael Schumacher even tho Lebron will probably pass him up by the time he retires and potentially Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi

Does that include endorsements? Is it me or was Floyd lacking in those?

Floyd at some point said he takes pride in not needing endorsements. I think part of him not having endorsement is corporations not liking his image.

I was just asking about Walters a number of pages back, great fight! November is solid for boxing and/or UFC fans.
Just saw Dan tweet something along the lines of, top PBC fighters are disgruntled about purses/inactivity and have been talking to other promoters about securing fights. PBC might not even make it out of 2016.

Steve Kim mentioned on TNR that Al's getting ready to release a bunch of guys. Most of them probably wont be notable but I'm guessing Pedraza is one of them.
