Charlo PPV buys

70-80k

 

65k-75k

 

There had so many things working against this.

Neither Charlo is a big name
The under card might have been stacked for boxing fans but there was no causal appeal there
It was up against a UFC card (which had an awesome ESPN + bundle)
The Pandemic and cost
If they get 100k at $75 they are looking at $7.5m then Showtime take their cut... Purses ain't gonna be great are they...

But yeah 100-120k. Very ill judged imo

 

They'd be lucky to get 100k buy

 

This was guaranteed to do bad numbers
In direct competition against a stacked and heavily promoted UFC event which had one of its biggest stars fighting

I'd be surprised if it goes over 100k

 

It's a sad reflection on the state of professional boxing in North America if it doesn't break 100,000 buys.

Junior Tszyu v Horndog in Australia did 100,000 buys @ A$60. Australia has a population half that of California.

Even if you don't like the Charlos, these fights were competitively matched. Where are all the viewers tuning in to see them lose?

Just don't see these guys selling ppv's. Both are unlikable as hell, and don't have that Floyd charm to sell that kind of thing. After all this time I still don't know which one is which and I doubt the public does either. Don't really have any kind of big hometown fan base that I know of. Good fighters but I just don't see them becomming big draws any time soon

 

75k...they aren’t PPV fighters are this point in their careers.

 

Floyd Mayweather charm? Floyd spoke in sound bites, his funniest moment was probably when he was in the UK and called the brothers of that guy Davis destroyed "leprechauns", haha. That was funny but few and far between, Floyd isn't exactly a showman.

I think the Charlos are much more charismatic than Floyd, especially because they have that twin factor that causes an amusing dynamic between them. They are funny as hell, it reminds me of the relationship between Goku and Vegeta, where Jermall is Goku and Jermell is Vegeta, Jermall like Goku just knows how to get under Jermell's skin, and push his buttons. Millions if not billions of people of all ages enjoy Dragonball z, partly because of the relationship between Goku and Vegeta, and if showtime can somehow capture the same interactions between Jermall and Jermell, I think it will be TV gold, and would draw in the casual fans.

The PPV numbers are known by end of fight. the only thing that needs to be worked out are refunds due to bad feeds etc.. but they have the numbers. Don't think they will release the numbers though. Its probably embarrassing.
