Froch v Groves = 900k PPV buys

[soul_survivor]

Sine yall are accountants and have stakes in multiple companies, I thought I'd give you a heads up. I'm not sure about the validity of the results but this is what's being reported. 900K is impressive for those who care, it's some 50-100k more than the Pac and May PPV fights this year.

To put into perspective, there are about 10mil+ Sky TV subscribers, half of those are Sky HD subs, not sure.

Taking into account the 10mil figure, almost 10% of people who have Sky watched the fight on TV with a further few thousand probably watching on illegal streams. To put it into further perspective, never has this occurred in the US, where 10% of either HBO or Showtime subscribers have tuned in for a PPV fight.

Suck it Americans!

Man that's dirt cheap. If only they were priced like that in the states. Congrats to Froch and Groves though, that's impressive

In that case, 900k is weak. But it did good numbers in the US so I cant bash it.
