Here's Floyd vs Hatton:

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/ot...041/Ricky-Hatton-shatters-viewing-record.html

Bigger than Lennox Lewis-Mike Tyson in 2002 (750,000 buys), greater than Frank Bruno-Mike Tyson in 1996 (660,000 buys), Hatton has outstripped the heavyweights. They are calling it 'The Hatton Phenomenon'. The signs were there even as the Mancunian lay prostrate on the canvas at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in round 10 being counted out by referee Joe Cortez. Hatton's followers cared not, still cheering his name, still chanting of a 'Hatton Wonderland'.

Although official Sky figures will not be known until late January 2008, the indications are that ppv buys on Sky Box Office are well over the million mark, and could climb as high as 1.4 million, creating revenue of 20 million pounds upwards. What is most surprising is that it will eclipse the Lewis-Tyson UK ppv buy record of 750,000 in 2002 by some margin. But the event also broke other records. Bookmakers reported 10 million pounds of betting on Hatton, more than had been staked on Lewis Hamilton to win the F1 drivers' championship, or on any other single British sportsman in history, a fact which distorted the odds for the contest against the world's No 1 pound for pound fighter, but which indicated huge public interest.

 

You think a malignaggi or matthew hatton fight would do 700,000?

 

Mosley mayweather will absolutely not break 2 million buys.
I will prema-ban bet anyone here that.

 

:rofl Hey, whatever helps you sleep better at night. If so, keep telling yourself that 700,000 is a good number.

This is just further evidence that all roads in boxing lead to Money May. He is the PPV cash king:deal

 

I have no idea but I do know what Floyd did with a guy who is not a draw.

No matter how people try to spin it. Pac has no leverage in negotiations with Floyd. Floyd did better numbers with his no draw opponents than Manny did with his no draw opponents. Now Floyd/Shane will do much better than Pac/Cotto did. Face it man, Floyd is the PPV king, Manny is pretty good himself but just not on Floyd's level.

 

The amazing part is that Clottey was an unknown to the general public, and still did 700k buys. You morons are saying that JMM was not a draw, well first off he's not even american why would he be a draw but his is still a known fighter compared to Clottey. If Floyd fought Clottey after Pac like pac has done to most of floyds opponents are you saying because floyd is such a draw that it would break 700k, its bs.

 

700k buys is very good especially with 51k in Dallas stadium.

Anything less than 50% for Manny would be uncivilized.

 

Yeah.. I got to give the fish man his props. HBO damn for sure aint mad.
