First let me say i dont trust Bob Arum and never have, so it amazes that how come noone is talking about why the Pac/Clottey official PPV numbers are still not out yet, since when does it take this long to bring out the official PPV numbers, this is starting to look suspicious
my dad works at the ppv numbers counting factory. he operates the machines that counts the number of buys. he said the fight made did 10 billion buys.
So everyone in the world bought the fight twice... :rofl:
What does it matter to you what numbers it did? You don't see a dime, all you get is the product which wasn't that good on the overall card and this is all you need to know.
Its none of fans business really how much money fighters and promoters make, I wish they would keep that stuff private.
I was just about to post this. Who cares what the numbers were? They don't put any money in our pockets. When I read the thread topic, I figured I go in to read something about someone feeling the fight was fixed...and then I see it's about freaking pay-per-view numbers like that means anything.
I'm going to have to break the news but Mayweather vs. Mosley is going to have better numbers in the end than Pac-Clottey because, well, it's a better and more intriguing fight. There's more casual fans that know of Mosley than they knew of Clottey, and Mosley poses a legit threat to Mayweather (the type of threat May hasn't faced in a long time). The only reason the Pac fight will make a good bit of PPV buys is that Pac's exciting to watch, not so much of the match-up itself.
