NEW YORK - Last Saturday's blockbuster boxing event - "THE ONE: MAYWEATHER VS. CANELO" - ranked as the highest-grossing pay-per-view of all time, with nearly $150 million in U.S. pay-per-view revenue reported to date. The news was announced today by Showtime Networks Inc., a division of CBS Corporation (NYSE: CBS.A and CBS), in conjunction with event promoters Mayweather Promotions and Golden Boy Promotions.

The SHOWTIME PPV presentation of THE ONE surpassed the previous record of $136 million generated by Oscar De La Hoya vs. Floyd Mayweather boxing event in 2007.

Preliminary reports from distributors show pay-per-view buys projected to be 2.2 million. While not fully reported from all distributors, the total buys could challenge the existing record of 2.48 million pay-per-view buys set by De La Hoya vs. Mayweather. The initial report immediately following the De La Hoya vs. Mayweather event in 2007 was 2.15. THE ONE has already exceeded the previous #2 event, the infamous World Heavyweight Championship bout between Evander Holyfield vs. Mike Tyson II (1.95 million, 1997).

Danny won fair and square he fought smart  but the  turning point of the fight came in round seven when Matthysse's right eye began to swell  .

I have Matthysse winning the rematch .

Lucas suffered a fractured on his ortibal bone, so yea he got fucked up. He's too one dimensional, Danny stood up to his punches and smothered him, out smarted Lucas.

Lucas dropped the ball, doesnt deserve a rematch, should move up and fight a big name.

Well if Lucas knew how to move his head and not get clipped on his eye, he wouldn't been in that position.

Danny sucks too, which is funny.

Not too bright are we? The point, was that boxing still generates a ton of money, because it is popular worldwide. It's popularity has faded in America.
