    700k for pac clotty

    900k pac bradley according to arum confirmed by rafael.

    usa ppvs are not the only barometer also. there's other revenue for television contracts as well.

    I think it did 900,000 actually, which is fine considering Bradley isn't a big name at all, or a particularly interesting character.

    If Pac fights Marquez or Cotto next, the number will easily be back near 1.5m, don't sweat it, you guys who care a lot about PPVs.

    Pac did only 700K against Clottey and then over a million in his next 3 fights.

    Not too bad considering Bradley had 4 fans buy it. Arum really ****ed that one up good. He got so greedy he thought he could put Pacquiao in there with the Easter Bunny and do a million buys. But he's still going to do everything in his power to not make a deal with Floyd. Instead, another rematch of either Marquez or Cotto, neither of which are that exciting, at least to me. Hopefully Pacquiao does take the rest of the year off.

    Pac had his chance at 50/50 and he blew it.

    700k is still not bad for fighting someone like Bradley.
