Will Magnificent 7 be a success or a flop at the box office?

Well the way Sky marketed Mitchell vs Katsidis on a non box office show i think this will not have great success. Recently the feedback i've gotten off of people who are casual fans after buying shows hasn't been great. Because the fact of poor undercards and ok main event.

These guys aren't crossover stars and i really don't enjoy the way they hype up fights nowadays. When i was young they had awesome adverts and the night itself was fantastic. It's going to need a real push to get non hardcore fans interested. Not just throw the odd advert and interview on sky sports news!!!

 

I wonder how many PPVs Frankl needs to make this a "success"? Most PPvs sell on at least 1 major fight or fighter, this doesn't have one. It'll appeal to boxing fans but it may struggle to get £15 out of the casuals.

 

For the die hard,its a brilliant line up. The casual? I doubt it will register.

 

This show sounds great' I would pay £3 per fight if all televised' thats allowing for 2 pull outs' all 7 would be a bonus' bettre than paying for khan with no knock out power. at least there will be some from this lot. bring it on.

 

For the likes of us it is a great line-up but there are no big names. Most of my mates wont have heard of any of those apart from Curtis Woodhouse!

 

Khan vs Kotelnik got over 100,000 buys according to Warren.

Warren is hoping to get about 10-13,000 people in the arena on the night, and I feel the PPV will be moderately successful.

 

**** paying for boxing. Period.

 

i think it does well on ticket sales but not on television box office

 

i change my mind........

A success...

 

I can't believe this is Box Office - well actually I can because all of Warren's **** tends to be put on there. I won't be buying it, not a chance.

 

I think it will do okay at the box office and very well on tickets sales.
I don't expect a phenomenal success, but just about doing well enough figures to keep Frank happy.

The really question for me is which of the fights announced will actually go ahead. You have to expect 2/3 pull outs from a Frank Warren card.

 

in general sky box office gets more viewers than Friday fight nights.

i think it could depend on whether Cleverly is upgraded to full title.

 

you do realise these guys need to make a living, don't you?
