    I agree I think it was clear to the public that it was not a good fight. I think that number is inflated... is that a global figure or just domestic.

    I was expecting 400k buys. Clottey is not a household name.

    There you go. Straight from HBO. Not bad at all. It actually did more than I expected.

    How many PPV buys did you expect before the fight? Did you expect 1M buys and above before the fight?

    :rofl :rofl

    So, if doing 700 K is horrible how about 325,000, 374,000, and 365,000?
    Why is that significant you may ask? Well, these are the buys of Mayweather's fights against Baldomir, Judah, and Gatti.

    What Pacquiao did is great numbers against a fighter who nobody knows in the US. Also, with a shitty undercard. 700,000 K is great.

    The main reason its did 700k was the fact it was at Dallas Cowboy Stadium and Also PAcs Popularity but if this was Vegas it wouldnt do 700k !!!!
