Can you imagine? IF HBO is releasing false numbers, imagine the maginations of honest Bob Arum.:deal

What is it? What? That Pac-Cotto only did 150K?
Arum estimated that each home that bought the PPV had 8 people viewing the fight......

After the filling of irs tax of HBO last january, Brad Cone discovered that the the real hbo ppv of the numero uno number one reached only 431,505 with a gross sales of 21,553,675 usd only 10,776,838 usd were pocketed and taxable by hbo sports.

So why gbp and hbo reached one million buys? was it manipulated?

But The real scene revealed that it was not manipulated at least the number who watched the fight, Indeed over 1 million fans paid to watch or shall we say forced to watch the fight.

GBP included and counted the movie theaters as ppv buys although it wasn't significant numbers at all because it only generates 9,563 paid viewers in 170 theaters with average payment of 7.49 that grossed only to 71,626.87

The big contributor of the 1 million buys are the bars and closed circuit viewing all over the country, and some of the viewers intended only to drink beers to their favorite bars, but discovered there was an additional 1.5 dollars per bottle in order to watch the fight live.

GBP has only registered 1,520,454 dollars grossed in bars and closed circuit viewing as taxable in their irs aplication. And 603,636 paid to watch or no choice but to watch the fight. There was even double or even more than triple counting if the customer drink more than 1 bottle of beer. But GBP included those numbers as ppv sales. Of course a ppv sales but not hbo ppv worth 50 dollars.

It lists Brad Cone as a source, but where's the actual article by Brad Cone. It's obviously some ****** posting a fake article. You're not going to find any HBO tax filings with that much detail and you're not going to find HBO lying about how many PPV buys a fight of theirs did. It's one thing to play fast and loose with words to give the impression of a number of buys, but HBO actually released numbers regarding home cable buys, home satellite buys, and total revenue.

This is disgusting if this is true that GBP would doctor its books just to show Floyd is marketable boxer. Quite pathetic. This should be investigaged by IRS.

You should write them a letter. I'm sure they'll get right on the case.

Even though the story is fake, the story didn't say that.

"9,563 paid viewers in 170 theaters with average of 7.49 that grossed only to 71,626.87"

Correcting *****s is getting tiring....low IQ?

So what your saying is that the bars and pubs that had the fight not only took count and charge those to come in and watch the fight, but they reported those numbers back to HBO?? You do understand that those bars cant charge people to come in and watch the fights dont you??? Its against the law.

*******s are truely clueless:huh

I couldn't give a **** about PPV numbers and never have done. Always amuses me that Floyd Mayweather fans in particular seem to care about how much money their man is earning, as opposed to who his next opponent is.

boxingscience · Mar 22, 2010

Boom_Boom · Mar 22, 2010

wow

Pac should be demanding 60-40 from Floyd then.

MichiganWarrior · Mar 22, 2010

*******s are awesome. They go above and beyond the call of duty/

boxingscience · Mar 22, 2010

oh my god some of you got to be gullible as **** to believe this ****. i suppose arum doesn't have contacts about PPV sales now. we all know something, arum doesn't know about. funny as **** with how dumb some people really are.

The Sports Business Journal reported that total PPV revenue for Mayweather vs JMM was 52 million and Pacquiao vs Cotto was 70 million. Mayweather vs JMM was $49.95 and Pac vs Cotto was $54.95

Simple math - 1,041,041 for May/Marq & 1,273,885 for Pac/Cotto

Brad Cone is supposedly a Pacquiao camp insinder so his information shouldn't be taken seriously for anything related to Mayweather. Plus, he was wrong in his last "scoop" that Pacquiao was going to agree to the random blood testing for his fans and the 3/13 bout with Mayweather would be on.
