    Maussa , Tszyu , Collazo , Urango and Oliveira(not sure on that one) were ppv .
    Only the Tszyu fight sold very well if memorary serves me right , the rest did okay

    All of those were on Sky Box office, his fight against Castillo was shown on a Subscription channel , which gained a lot of viewers from that fight . Them also having the Cotto v Judah fight 2 weeks before helped somewhat in attracting boxing fans though . The fight was also shown on a ppv channel, but the vast majoirty watched through Setanta(the subscription channel) as it was like the same price to get that for 3 months as to watch the fight on the ppv .

    Actual figures I can't give you , but maybe this info helps you some what .

    I had always thought they sold exceptionally well for PPV in the UK which is an entirely different ballgame to the US...

    I'm pretty sure Oliveira was not PPV.
