Money Goes Platnum Money Mayweather does it again 1 million sold Making History out of the only 5 times doing these numbers in the History of Boxing The Platnum Money Man himself was the Common Denominator in 3 Will Money Do it again Next Year Bring on Pac
Mayweather didn't sell out fighting Baldomir either yet made MORE in PPV numbers than the sold out Morales vs Pac. You know that Mayweather/Marquez nearly made more than Pac/DLH, right?
Thats a damn shame, I was in Vegas like 2 weeks before the fight, I looked into tickets but they were $150 for the cheapest and there were 3 of us so it was too much. I wish I would have known we could have gone for free then I would begged my family to move the trip to that weekend.
lol. dam - why is everyone so defensive? I just posted it as an fyi as i came across it this morning. I didn't even comment on it. wow... lol.
People keep saying he isnt a draw but he sure did very well there, people really wanted to see him come back.
1mil is impressive. but id be surprised if its actually true. Ive even heard 500,000. So anywhere from 500,000 to 1.6 mil i guess lol
Back to your hole. Mayweather-Marquez Hits 1 Million Pay-Per-View Buys NEW YORK -- HBO Sports reported today that one million pay-per-view buys were generated from last Saturdays welterweight fight between Floyd Mayweather and Juan Manuel Marquez at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas. The fight was promoted by Mayweather Promotions and Golden Boy Promotions. The one million buy total represents the highest performing boxing pay-per-view event in 2009 and generated $52 million in pay-per-view revenue. The million buys include 525,000 from cable homes and 475,000 from satellite homes. It is only the fifth time in boxing pay-per-view history that a non-heavyweight event has attained the one million buy mark. Mayweather, a bona fide superstar, returned to the ring after a 21-month absence and showed no signs of rust in scoring a dominating victory. He has now participated in two events that have reached the one million buy mark. Sept. 19 was an event that connected with sports fans across the country, said Mark Taffet of HBO Pay-Per-View. Floyd Mayweather has clearly reinforced his standing as a top attraction and fans are excited about his return to the sport. Mayweather vs. Marquez will be replayed this Saturday, Sept. 26 at 10:00 p.m. ET/ 7:00 p.m. PT on HBO. The 12-round unanimous decision triumph by Mayweather will be paired with the live heavyweight title fight featuring Vitali Klitschko and Cristobal Arreola from Los Angeles.
