    sold between 150,000 and 200,000 ppvs.

    If it's true that is pretty decent. I have no reliable source.

    Anything below 200k is not a success. They will not lose money, because both guarantees are easily met, but with the extra push from HBO with 24/7 series and Jacobs being American with intriguing background story, if indeed that is the final numbers IMO its disappointing.
    It doesn't mean the GGG canelo is in jeopardy though.
    GGG camp might reconsider their hard stance for asking percentage, and Canelo camp might just thought the reward is now greater than the risk, seeing GGG showed some struggle in putting away Jacobs.
    That's what I'm hoping anyway.

    They weren't looking for a big profit. The fight was hardly promoted except on HBO. They didn't put out more than they received so they view it as a success. So in that sense it was. They promoted GG Lemieux and that bombed.

    Hopefully the pay-per-view model is on the decline,

    These emotional cash cows are the outliers, the real match ups in the sport flop,

    unless it's on CBS that is

    Fighters aren't gonna generate enough interest if every decent fight is ppv.
