May-Pac PPV number projected @ 5.5 buys; official #: 4.4 million

It would be for one fight so the Haymon thing isn't too much of a hurdle. It isn't like they are going to have to give Haymon dates again.

 

I thought it would do at least over 4.

 

Maybe, but Floyd would proobably start a bidding war for his final fight.

 

I thought it would do 5.0-10.0 based on the philippines alone >_<

 

4.4 million suckers

Nah that's impressive

 

For floyd 50th fight? I say yea

 

I still have to see it.

 

Basically

 

that should already be good as they said it will promote itself. even if it's a record breaking ppv, the fight was not good enough for a fight of the century.

 

The reports said over 4.4 million, so i think theyre still tallying up ppv buys..

 

Are you kidding? Of course it will get broken. If Oscar and Trinidad were fighting , or Tyson vs Lewis for example in this day and age, they would blow that away. Beside's the obvious reasons, Its social media and all the hype generated over the internet that's the reason for this and will continue to grow for other future great boxers.
Just wait till we get a PPV king that actually KO's people and fights guys like him. If Floyd can spar people and make those kind of numbers, its elementary that an exciting true warrior with personality will surpass that with the help of the wildfire growth in social media.

 

That's just the US too.

Be interested to see a roundup of the PPV sales across the World.

 

I made that point clear in my OP.

 

someone throwup a denzel washington "my man" meme.
