    wrong wrong wrong. There are no official numbers and all the numbers thrown out there have none as high as 1.5


    and Pac/Marquez didn't even do 1.45. The only source for that is wikipedia, and I learned in the past couple of days that wikipedia is a piece of crap. Plus the reference wikipedia gives for those numbers is right here.

    No where in the article does it say 1.45

    If Bradley fights smart, then it's Pacquiao looking like an amateur again

    you JUST now learned that about wikipedia?:-( happens to the best of us..i...spose.

    That aside, I wonder why HBO or Showtime never just outright say "no that's garbage"? aside from maybe wanting to preserve the business relationship?

    Wrong...

    1.5 million buys, each buy certainly had more than one viewer and many hosted parties.

    I guarantee you more people in the US watched boxing on 5/5 than will any other date in 2012.

    Shows U How Stupid Pac Fans are, To Believe that Pac vs. JMM III did Bigger numbers than Pac V.s Oscar....
    And you people Eat that sh!t up!! I mean Come on Really???
    Pac Was never a and will never be a Bigger PPV Draw than Oscar Nor Was JMM
    How the F..ck Can a Fight between them Outsell Pac V.S Oscar?? That Alone should tell you That the Fight Did 1 Million Buy's Max...
    I swear if Bob Say's Tim V.s Pac did 3 Mill Without proof All You pac fans will Eat that sh!!t up and Spew that Crap on ESB

    Am I To Believe that Pac vs. JMM did 1.5 (Bob wont Release the Real Numbers)
    But Pac V.s Oscar did Only 1.25 Mill (Official)
    When Oscar was Coming Off a 2 million Buy With Mayweather??

    Not really relevant to the thread but ...

    PAC is the only boxer in PPV history that have done 1 million or more PPV buys fight(s) every year for 4 consecutive years (2008 to 2011) ...

    And if PAC vs Bradley will do 1 million or more PPV buys then PAC sets another PPV record, 5 consecutive years of 1M PPV buy fights ...
