    We all know they made millions from sold-out Live Arena to Closed Circuit.

    Now let's try to guess how much PPV buys did it made.

    I'm still guessing they're still computing the numbers till now. We might see it in a week.




    My guess... 1.2m PPV Buys

    around 700,000 British fans annoyed they spent £15 on 6 minutes. Evreyone i know never saw the undercard. Jesus if u pay that kind of money might as well watch the undercard.

    And some paid thousand of dollars for front seat.

    Don't blame the bout. Anything could happen. Heck do they complain about Tyson finishing everything in just the first rounds?

    I wouldn't be suprised to have it a bit low, from a higher global economic crisis and free live streaming on the net.

    Whatever the final figure will be,it will be less than the De la Hoya PPV buy.I'd guess 750 k PPV buys.

    it'll take a couple of days to get a good count but i'm guessing that it's around 750-800k..which is reasonable given the economy. too bad though for the guys who forked out the money to watch the ppv, fight ended quickly

    It usually takes a few days before (IF) HBO or GBP/Top Rank comes out with the numbers, and those numbers are far from being accurate, using 100.000 steps. Also, it was proved many times HBO simply lies making numbers look better than they actually are, and the difference between the public and the official numbers can be anything from 10% up to 30%.

    Why should we care anyway, we are not getting a cent of it.
