Pac Bradley II was an awesome fight. Mayweather Maidana was the best Mayweather ppv fight ever.

expected more, the undercard was star studded. this could also be good news because showtime can put pressure on floyd to fight someone who would be a big time draw, maybe cotto/martinez winner or even pac, canelo/lara winner if canelo wins

Originally posted by DLT View Postits so funny to me to see this and even Arum talking about the dissapointing Pac-Bradley numbers. Everyone has become so jaded that they act like 850,000 buys is garbage now? Those use to be super mega numbers. I remember one time that people thought you had star status if you could do like 450. Now its either a mil or bust.
At the end of the day, I could care less either way. Its not going in my pocket. I just want to see good fights. F the numbers

Regardless, PPV numbers have never mattered to me. As a fan, I just want to see good fights and Mayweather/Maidana and Pacquiao/Bradley II were both excellent and entertaining fights, so you guys can have at it as far as picking a "winner."

I'd be interested to see how much they took on the UK side. I was charged £30 - two thirds more than what it normally is for a Mayweather fight. Obviously, Khan's being on the card had a lot to do with the inflation in price.

Wow, and that was a card with Broner and Khan on it. Not enough Mexican fighters on Cinco De Mayo weekend? IF the numbers are true, who else could help Floyd break a mil?
Amir Khan? I don't know who else would have the fanbase...
