Top 10 PPV buy rates in 2010

St Pierre-Koscheck did 785K? Damn, UFC fans are getting dumber by the year.

Boxing needs to find a superstar quick fast to take the torch from Manny and Money.

Those ****ing redneck degenerates will be unbearable once the UFC occupy all ten spots on that list. They already think they've stolen the "Baddest Man On The Planet" tag after Couture beat that shot-to-**** fool with titties

 

It's alright, when Lesnar got annihilated against Valesquez, UFC just lost one of their cash-cows.

Hard to see Lesnar beating Dos Santos either, so don't know where he goes from here. Strikefore HWs crap all over UFCs HW anyway.

 

...700K of that were from boxing fans checking out if GSP learned anything from Roach

 

Well stated and there are many other instances to prove that boxing,on a global basis,outdraws and out revenue the UFC and rather easily at that.:deal

 

That was his base pay. Add his percentage of the pay per view and Lesnar cleared a nice $3mil before any endorsements.

 

The article this is taken off quite clearly states that its a North American only list. Which is fair given the significantly lesser price of UK ppvs.

 

Glad the top the top 2 are boxing.

 

Wrestlemania didn't even break 500,000 last year.

 

And MMA fans will watch free fights on Versus, Spike and Showtime. Your point is?

 

boxing ain't primarily a ppv business its a network deal.also ufc is killing wwe not boxing

 

Both only became real draws on PPV after beating the sport's biggest star - Oscar De La Hoya. What happens if Pacquiao and Mayweather leave the sport undefeated instead of passing the torch to a young fighter?

 

Just wondering how much do UFC fighters get per fight? can't believe the Spyder Silva fight only made 600k

 

promoters will have to get off their ass and do their job

 

Its all a bit cloak and dagger.

Unlike boxing full purse figures aren't released, only the base pay promised in the fighter's contract.

Most of the top guys will get a cut of the pay per view revenue on top of that. And every fight gets a 'locker room' bonus from the UFC.

Again the guy who put this list together says that Lesnar has earnt $11million, not including endorsements, for his last three fights. Not as much as a comparable boxer but nothing to be sneezed at. And of course the point has to be made that unlike a boxer promoter the UFC is having to pay over 200fighters and a lot of backroom functions that in boxing are usually covered by the network.

 

Point me to a boxing promoter that's worth over $1billion
