    900k in the states is better then Hatton Floyd, when HAtton was undefeated before the recession, with a mainstream American in main event. Not bad.

    900k in states and 1 mil UK buys is great. Sky must be gutted as Hatton was the PPV cash cow. There is nobody else who can draw anywhere near the numbers hatton can draw.

    Which judging by Arum's history, means the fight did well UNDER 900K buys in the US.......

    Stay tuned, but my prediction is that Mayweather-JMM will well surpass 1 million buys, throwing a wrench into Arums contention that anyone that fights Pacquiao gets maximum 35% of the purse.....

    Sorry, but if Mayweather-JMM does over the US buys that Pac-Hatton does.......the winner of PBF-JMM is the the bargaining table drivers seat!!!!!

    You can hype the fighter all you want, but if it does'nt show up in the PPV buys, he's not in the drivers seat at the bargaining table!:deal

    900K is huge considering most were expecting 750K.

    At least that's what I was expecting.

    Lets come back down to earth here about JMM in the driver seat. PBF has a case but JMM in the dirver seat? :patsch:rofl:rofl

    Last time JMM took hold of the stearing wheel he drove of the road and into Chris John's backyard. Took him years to find his way back to the main road.

    Looks like the Joy Boyz just got punked. And Floyd's an American, for God's sakes.

    All that supposed Floyd leverage for a Pac-Floyd fight?

    Yeah, that's gone.

    At least if the 900k number turns out to be correct.

    There is one group who hopes Floyd has a HUGE amount of drawing power, though:

    You have to think the feds would like to get some of that supposed $6.2 million that Floyd owes them in back taxes.
