    Not very much.

    Dawson's fan-base could fit on a Vespa.

    I don't recall Jones-Hopkins doing too well so doubt this would have.

    About as many hits as me and my wife putting a rudey video on youtube.

    We are both fat and ugly by the way.

    Jones vs Calzaghe was on ppv and that buyrate was flat out horrible. And that fight had a 24/7 in which more exposure but that didnt work. I think Hopkins vs Dawson ppv buy rate is going to be lower then Hopkins vs Pavlik.

    If more than 50K people bought this, I'd be floored.

    I called atleast 15 bars in new york city and not one ordered the fight because they claimed it was too expensive and wasn't a draw to bring people into the bar for drinks/food.

    I'm expecting embarrassing results

    They never release ##s less than a week after the fight. And they'll probably never officially release the numbers on this one.
