The Khan v Prescott pay per view event nearly 49,000 sales

I thought it would do really well, but I was wrong. 49,000 doesn't sound like a lot to me. I think a lot of people resorted to (cough) internet radio coverage.

 

Seems quite low nice. Makes you wonder about advertisment revenue from such a small audience.

 

That doesn't sound a great deal to me (£3/4 mill) but I'm no expert on the economics of it all.

 

The damage of the loss would be worth a hell of alot more than that.

 

The answer is a massive no.

In this interview before the fight Warren said he needed 250,000 buys to make the event a success.

"Warren needs about 250,000 buys of Khan's fight, at £14.99 each, to ensure success on Saturday."

 

Can't say that the low number is a shock. I don't know anyone who got it, unlike the prime Hatton fights

 

dont sound good

 

Same here, I know 1 mate who got it and thats because he wanted to stay in on the Saturday night and save some money for his holidays the next week. People just wern't talking about it at all in the week leading up to the fight.

 

Although I was never really thinking about getting it what made it easier to resist on the night was the thought of handing over money that could go into the pockets of Audley.

 

Watched it online, as alot of people did.

 

Nice.

Seems like poetic justice to me.

 

and out of the 50k sells how many were internet streaming sites

 

This is great news.

 

Look people will not buy shitty PPV, it doesn't matter who it is, it has to a competive match IF they won't big numbers
