    To the point that they Most likely will never release. google it for more info.

    I dont know what the hell TR/HBO was thinking they were gonna get. if somehow ppl believed some guy that won a fight that was really close and not even in pac's weight class was gonna make the PPV fat!! They must be retared. i always thought less then 300 k, at least mexicans knew Rios...nobody really knew Algeri.

    Probably why Arum pushing hard for Mayweather fight, he knows its end of the line. time to hit that gold mine

    It did'nt take a genius to figure out this fight would'nt sell.

    Arum had predicted 750-900k because Algieri was on the cover of New Yorker magazine. :lol:

    Latino's buy boxing ppv at a higher rate than any other race, so you had to know this ppv would'nt outsell the 400k or so that the Rios fight sold.

    If the thread starter is correct about Top Rank and HBO's dissapointment, my guess is that this fight did well below Rios numbers. Maybe even less than 300k.

    Under 300 would be a stretch.
    Cotto did over 200 against Mayorga on Showtime.
