Was Mayweather the reason there were decent PPV numbers in England ...

Not really because they were only 14.95 which his better than nearly pay 60 dollars for oscar V floyd or even gatti V floyd. Just wondering was mitchell and brussells PPV against floyd.

 

From what ive looked up, 500,000 would of been tied for 5th. It probably did 450ish.

Im not saying Mayweather was a huge part of it. But with Mayweather they combined to make something big.

 

No.


Only

Gatti
Judah
Baldomir
DLH
Hatton

 

At this point I would like to say...

**** PPV's

 

Too true.

 

I second that motion.

 

to behonest, before the hatton fight, mayweather was unknown in the uk as far as the public and casual fans are concerned.

 

but this was hatton`s first title fight against tszyu

and hatton was expected to lose , in fact he was expected to get blown away.

i mean how much ppv would mayweather v hernandez have done.

to jump in at those high numbers for a fight taking place at that time of morning is very high.

 

It was Hatton.

if he fought De La Hoya, Mosley or Cotto, there would have been very similar ppv figures...

 

True only fans of the sport in the UK Knew who floyd was.

 

So it was Hattons fans that filled the arena in Vegas, but it was Fraud who sold PPV's in the UK????:nut :rofl

Some of you Fraud Groupies are beyond stupid.

 

I Would not take much notice of the thread title. Its just away to see if mayweather has any pulling power among the people in UK. Which the answer is no.

 

Dumbest question ever.

I wonder why 10,000 Hatton fans went over to Vegas.

Maybe to see Floyd - 'the face of boxing'.

 

Or just to see the arrogant american arsehole getting the shite knocked out of him.

 

Hatton has the popularity and everybody in England wanted to see him beat the P4pP number 1.
