I couldn't believe they were putting that on PPV. This is all some bullshite. I guess Showtime is trying everything they can to pay for that Floyd contract so they're putting any decent fight on PPV. I guess from here on out they expect everyone to pay extra $ to see Canelo and Broner fight anyone.
No one fricking knows who Marcos Maidana is outside of the hardcore boxing fans. And honestly, not many people know who the hell Adrien Broner is either. They don't have big fan bases.
It's a damn shame that fight will be on PPV.
It's been nice the last three years or so because we haven't had many PPV fights outside of Mayweather and Pacquiao. I remember the days when EVERY good fight seemed like it was on PPV. Maybe we're heading in that direction again thanks to the Golden Boy hype jobs.

you were wutting the 12 round sweep? I had it 12-0 and I only saw two rounds that were even competitive.

Saying it was 12-0 and calling others stupid for not having a clean sheet is ridiculous. I had two rounds for Canelo.

That's the most I could see anyone giving him.

Nevada boxing judge Cynthia J. Ross is once again at the center of a controversy after her 114-114 scorecard for the one-sided twelve round fight between Floyd Mayweather and Saul Canelo Alvarez provoked disbelief Saturday night in Las Vegas. In view of this latest brouhaha, it’s interesting to look back at Ross’ record as a judge, a record that has raised eyebrows on more than a half dozen occasions in major fights.
June 9, 2012 — Manny Pacquaio vs Timothy Bradley
Ross scores 115-113 in favor of Bradley, a score widely condemned by fans and media.
Nov. 12, 2011 — Juan Carlos Burgos vs Luis Cruz
Ross was the only judge not to score heavily in favor of Burgos. Scored it a 95-95 draw.
Aug. 13,2011 — Abner Mares vs Joseph Agbeko I
She was the only judge not to see Mares as the winner. She scored a draw 113-113.
May 7, 2011 — Rodel Mayol vs Javier Gallo
