Cotto Vs. Mayweather: PPV Numbers...

with gas prices skyrocketing? i'd say 1.5M tops. 1.4 easy.

0.9999+million because i bet the money i was supposed to pay on ppv...

im an expert, 1.89245212231231221231231231231265 That would be impossible sir.

I read that they were re-airing it on ppv for the same price from May 7th -9th. Not sure I've ever seen this done for a boxing ppv before. Could this be a sign of lower than expected #'s? They do it with most PPVs and they had planned to do it prior to the event anyway. In fact when Cotto-Mayweather ended they announced that the PPV would be repeated. And I say 2 million is realistic. Cotto is a bigger draw than when May fought Oscar, add on Canelo-Mosley plus Cinco De Mayo. Mayweather managed 1.3 million against a non-draw like Ortiz, Cotto is worth another 600k buys alone.

1.85mill i think

I'd say 1.4 or 1.5. I can't even see Pac-May hitting 2M to be honest.

1.6-1.8 is my guess.

only time we will see 2mil is if mayweather and pac come up against each other i think it will be around 1.45mil which is amazing

2 buys......

Wont reach 2 mill imo. Id say 1.6 at the most.

1.4-1.6 Can't see it being more.

It won't reach 2. Even Pac/Mai would probably only do 2, maybe a bit over if they promote right. Boxing just isn't a big enough concern in mainstream sports anymore for a PPV, even with major stars, to reach much above 1.5. Neither of these guys are Tyson's, Ali's, Leonard's etc. Boxing has well and truly lost those days. I think the top will be 1.6...maybe 7. I will be very happy to be proven wrong though.

i think it did well, first major PPV of the year. star-studded too. i wouldnt be surprised if it hits 1.4-1.8mil.... i would be pleasantly surprised if it reached 2...

Guessing 1.5-1.6

A friend in the cable industry (she runs VoD) told me that it substantially outsold Ortiz, but was well short of the 2 million that Schaefer said. She said that it looks to be about 1.45 to 1.6 million. In that range. She extrapolated based on the sales for her cable system's (Xfinity) history. But it could be higher or lower if other cable systems were higher of lower (for example, Northeast may be higher buyrate becasue of more Puerto Ricans) 1.5 is probably a pretty good center cut. You can assume 1.4 mill as the LOW side, but it may overperform to 1.7 million No joke, no BS... believe it or disregard it at your discretion.

This fight had more Buzz than May/Mosley or Pac/Marqez 3. My guess is around 1.6 or 1.7

I'll guess 1.5mil.

9.8.................

Hopefully very big numbers, it's good for the sport. I'll go for 1.8 or there abouts.
