    How many do you think. I don't think it did well maybe 750k

    My guess is 1.3M as reported by ESPN or any other major company. Rick Glaser will probably have about 750k - 1M.

    JCC Jr fight hit well over 1M already. I think basically all of Canelo's Mexican fans (1M) from there would've tuned in to see him in vs a greater threat, plus the hardcores (150k) plus GGG fans (150k).

    Yes, suddenly Canelo and Golovkin can rival Mayweather...

    Canelo and Cotto couldn't crack 1m. So i would be surprised if they got anything above 1m.

    1.2 million sounds realistic

    But Canelo-JCC Jr did. This is a better fight, I think it might crack 1M, maybe Mayweather-McG even helped a little by bringing boxing into the spotlight.

    Floyd needed a dance partner for his biggest numbers. Without Pac, Canelo, ODLH, Cotto, Mosley and McGregor (lol), his numbers were pretty dismal (Maidana 2X, Guerrero, Ortiz, and Berto).

    I think it'll do 1.5-2 million.

    The Ortiz fight, at the time, was one of the most expensive PPVs. It made more than the Mosley fight.
    Guerrero and Maidana fights all did over 800k. (Maidana II did as much as Alvarez-Cotto)
    Yes, Floyd needs a dance partner but his numbers always surpass other fighters.

    Does the UFC add global ppv buys to their total?

    I see the UFC record is 1.7 mill so anything better than that will be good, boxing will be back to a side status in the US. Boxing needs a thriving US market, it's good for the sport. If UFC adds global buys 1.3-1.5 might beat the record?
