      They use boxnation
      Sky Box Office that's what the Khan vs Floyd fight will be on

      you have to pay around £20 to watch it so around $40

      Could easily do a million buys in the uk alone

        Mayweather/Khan would break records in the UK.

        Mayweather is a elite boxer who would attract a good number of PPV in the UK.

        Khan's style gets him alot of fans and there's also alot of rednecks in council houses who despise a british asian doing well so they would claim extra benefits to buy the fight too.

          You wanna bet? Khan v Mayweather might be on SBO, if it was in the UK, it'd be guaranteed.

            Haaha, so true. brilliant.

            They'll save all their dole money for a couple of weeks and buy a couple bottles of cider to get wasted on whilst watching it

              Primetime could also be an option. Khan - McCloskey, Khan -Judah, and Mayweather - Ortiz were all on Primetime UK & Ireland. More recently they had Hatton - Senchenko as a PPV

                1.5mill buys i reckon in UK + Ireland. Khan is one of most popular athletes in UK. Mayweather and Khan would do great. If on Sky Box Office. They will promote that fight like hell. I see that fight doing very good anyway

                  it depends on the timing, i think in prime time uk, the fight will do about 1 million buys, at 4am, it would do about 400-500k imo

                  but remember, the price would be far less, ppvs in the uk at 15 pounds which is about 25 dollars, so the fight would generate sweet f all

                  khan vs floyd will happen in the us and it will do around 750k guys like his fight with guerrero did, it may even do less numbers, but I think the fight will be heavily promoted in the uk to try and bump its numbers up to 600k here

                  think of it this way

                  for ever 3 uk ppv buys, that will roughly equate to 1 us ppv buy

                  mayweather needs roughly about 1.2m ppv buys so showtime break even and do not lose money like they did vs guerrero
