Eddie Say EP198 - Fury PPV Buys

The Fury Chisora fight was advertised on Sky Sports news. To be honest I don't buy the argument of people here saying it was a terrible fight so PPV numbers would be low when Chisora is well-known throughout the UK and is another British fighter. He is more well-known than Pulev and Usyk in the UK for example.

 

You don’t have to ask him as he’s already openly spoke about it. It’s no secret that he lost money on that event.

 

You will have to excuse him. He's very Pro Frank/Tyson.

 

Hearn’s far more honest when it comes to a flop than Warren is…

 

There's a reason why Matchroom always release PPV buys and Warren hasn't for all his recent PPVs. I don't think Joyce Parker even did 100,000 buys. I'm interested to see how Joshua's PPV buys are when he fights on DAZN in April. I think even 500,000 would be a success there to be honest considering the potential opponent, platform and Joshua's recent losses.

 

Are you the EverythingBoxing account on twitter?

 

i wonder where hearn who is known for bringing other promotions down got this figures from. does he have an informant or something. if he has their ppvs figures can he give us dazn sub figures.

 

Don't have Twitter mate.

 

Tyson has been doing poor numbers on ppv its plain to see.

 

minus the 35% for broadcaster. Actual gate revenue was around 40-50,000 seats. Hearing it hit 290k buys.

That means event more or less broke even. Del was on £2m. Tyson likely had a £5m minimum. But not a good look for Tyson as the british Heavyweight champion to be doing essentially Dillian Whyte numbers

 

For Tyson and BT it's brilliant numbers but let's be honest...BT boxing is **** & Queensbury promotions can't promote fights like Sky under Matchroom could.

Matchroom held all the power during that decade in particular 2010-2020, they were the ones at the front queue looking to sign all the best amateur fighters and all the Olympians.

 

I’m surprised it had so many buys to be honest, absolute dogsh*t fight and undercard.

 

Not a good look for Tyson Fury LOL - this is not a good look.
