Quick Blurb..

I mentioned it briefly over a month ago when it happened. CBS and its networks went black on Time Warner Cable. The blackout ended yesterday after 32 days. CBS tried to play hardball but I have a feeling they are the ones that caved in the most. A lot of people think this is solely due to the NFL season beginning. Its much more than that. Just 2 weeks from "The One"....CBS/Showtime could not afford to be black leading up to this fight. It would damage promotion and lose a lot of eyeballs. I dont think the general public knows how serious the blackout was when it comes to this fight. The PPV wouldve taken a serious hit. I mean a potential 100-200k buys. That would be disastrous.

Views From The X
“Keith Thurman against Robert 'The Ghost' Guerrero is a fight I would be interested to see. Sometimes I have crazy ideas but I like to see good fights,” Schaefer said. “I’m no different than any fight fan whether I’m the promoter of the fight or a spectator, and I felt Thurman against Guerrero would have been an interesting fight. But Guerrero and his team were not interested.”

Guerrero co-manager Luis DeCubas Jr. also acknowledged that it was not a fight they were interested in.

According to Schaefer, Guerrero was more interested in challenging the winner of the proposed Broner-Maidana fight for the belt.

“I said, ‘OK, but that wouldn’t be until next spring,’ and they said they would be OK with waiting,” Schaefer said.

It seems to me that because Guerrero’s purse was $3 million to face Mayweather, he doesn’t need the money right now so why not kick back and relax, and wait for a world title fight?

I can understand Guerrero's reasoning from a business standpoint. He has a nice little chunk of change in the bank from the Mayweather fight so he doesn't need to rush into his next fight and he is looking to make the most money with his future bouts and as much as I like Thurman that is not where a big purse is going to come from. As far as maximizing his earning potential he should look past Thurman at either Broner or Maidana.
