Mayweather - Cotto: PPV 1.5 million buys 94 revenue

Inb4 NotaBOXINGfan "Boxing is dead".

 

Nice. Congrats to Floyd/Cotto/Alvarez
(Tyson still the PPV king tho)

 

94 million wholy

 

WOW that is huge. And at 59.99? ****.

 

:good

 

So 94 million...and what was the live gate ?



I still wish (as a Fan) that they would lower the cost to watch these fights. But as long as they can sell, they'll continue to do it.

So no reason to jump for joy if you are a fan (unless you are betting and winning on these matches)

 

We got the numbers in under 7 days. Wouldn't it be great if every fight was like this instead of rumours for weeks.

 

I wonder if Floyd beats Oscar's highest ever purse (53 mill)

 

Plus this fight was available in theaters. Pac-Bradley will not be, I think.

 

Here are the top 10 boxing gates in Nevada history:

1. Mayweather-De La Hoya (2007): $18,419,200

2. Lennox Lewis-Evander Holyfield II (1999): $16,860,300

3. Manny Pacquiao-De La Hoya (2008): $14,380,300

5. Holyfield-Tyson I (1996): $14,150,700

6. Tyson-McNeeley (1995): $13,965,600

7. Felix Trinidad-De La Hoya (1999): $12,949,500

8. Bernard Hopkins-De La Hoya (2004): $12,782,650

9. Mayweather-Cotto (2012): $12,000,150

10. Pacquiao-Juan Manuel Marquez III (2011): $11,648,300

A lot of money not going into my pocket

 

Just like i predicted. the higher price for it makes it even more impressive though. Floyd is king

 

Floyd making crazy money and glad cotto is making his best ever payday.
