    I think the thread creator is well aware that this isn't a particularly accurate "study". Lol at the people trying to "enlighten" him. He knows... he knows... The usual know-it-all wanna bes.

    Thanks. I was starting to worry about some of the people on this site.

    This survey is starting to look more and more interesting.

    Please keep replying everyone. The more people, the more accurate this will be and the more it will say about where the actual dollars are coming from.

    Honestly I think the idea of this thread is a good idea, but we have to consider what may be the authors motives behind it, if he can stay in the middle and be honest with the results its a fair shake to see who supports the PPV buy.

    you can also go back and do all the math for yourself to confirm if its consitant with what the author post.

    Agreed. My motive behind it is I'm a film producer/director of a boxing documentary that I'm about to distribute and want to know what is really behind the PPV numbers. So I have no vested interest in supporting one fighter over the other. Just want to know the real people who paid their good money to see this fight as there is no real data on this available in the film or boxing industry. Thanks.

    For the record, you were the one who bought the fight or what were the stats on the person who did?

    While it may not be a bad idea, I cringe at the inaccuracy this makes for, knowing statistics as I do. Yes, I bought the fight.
