    1.25 million.

    Fat dan on his twitter...

    The Mayweather-Ortiz fight generated $78,440,000 in PPV revenue, making it the 2nd-highest grossing non-heavyweight PPV ever.

    In terms of buys (not revenue), the 1.25 million Mayweather-Ortiz did means it tied for third all-time among non-heavyweight PPVs. #boxing

    Not great, just solid. Pac - SSM still did better.

    Sports illustrated reported that this fight did around 1.15 million, so within a decent range.

    This is a very good number considering Ortiz was unknown, no hype for the fight ( not in the same manner as mayweather Mosley) and also the fact that many people are losing jobs.

    I guess mayweather really is a winner.

    No, SSM coming off a loss to Mayweather and a draw to Mora, and Pac fighting twice a year...

    I honestly feel Pac has been the bigger draw since he KO'd Hatton. Floyd is right at his heels tho

    Saying Ortiz is an "unknown" is a bit of an overstatement?

    Dude I don't want to argue numbers bc it's stupid but PBF - Mosley did better then Pac - Mosley.

    Ortiz is comparable to Clottey.

    either way the fight will be a 50-50 split both Manny and Floyd have already agreed to that. They are both smart enough to realize that they have to split the money so why do there fans argue?

    1.25 is pretty decent.
