corpsejr could have bought half of those himself, or pokemon. shitty undercard, and awful main event. corpsejr could have saved the event, instead he treated the audience in a track and field and wrestling exhibition. first big ppv event by tmt and is a major flop.
Pac fans have nerve man. Jesus. Pac can pull in 400k buys and they'll somehow flip it so that its a success. FMJ does 850k and it's "what a flop"
pac in macau, theyre not ove reliant on u.s. ppv buys. venetian guarantees his purse. plus, there will be china ppv this time. it;s pac's u.s. matches that will be the barometers of his popularity in the u.s.
ESPN Desportes states below 700k? Where did they get their sources from by the way? It can't be that bad surely?
Why would the *****s wants this to sell high? Do they want more disappointed casuals who have bought with floyd's shitty ass running performance?
You guys don't even realize the business of the deal.. You have no idea of what they expected out of the deal they gave Floyd.. I'm almost 100% positive that they figured the numbers and the potential gain and loss way before they even talked to Floyd.. I'm sure they didn't expect Floyd to singlehandedly make them x times richer... Fun fact: Every year Wal-Mart lose hundreds of million every year on one day, black Friday.. The sale is bigger every year and they lose more every year on that one day.. Why on Earth would they continue to do it every year over the world?
So your saying even if the fight flops in buys (ppvs) it's a success because pac is guaranteed a purse? Hypocrisy? Isn't that what you guys are claiming with floyd? Either way, let's not loose site of what is going on. I'm glad floyd got **** #s if true because the rematch was not needed. Pac vs chris is a equally if not worse mach up. Seriously there are other fighters more deserving of a pac fight. Hell even provo is more deserving, rios got a crack at pac after loosing to alvarado, so why not provo who has a better resume? Both fights are garbage and if you pretend one is better than the other then you are a fanboy. Macau should be outraged that Bob the snake arum is bringing such a **** fight to the Asian community. All these epic fights pac had in vegas and now he fights chris in macau lol. I'm sure more than 3/4 of the boxing fans in macau didn't even know of Chris until pac was announced he was fighting him.
Still a good number. I think 700k - 925k is great. The fight was terrible and the undercard was weak. I am surprised that they can get these buys from the casual fans. Honestly these numbers mean very little to me. It only means you are good at duping the public and putting on a circus act. It is good for thier wallet but not so great for the fans.
