Steve Kim _(Bottom of Glovely Article) reporting PPV buys at 350-400 k for Bradley v Marquez.
My sources say a little over 380,000.

Funny thing is,, floyd vs zab and gatti did more than this, and those fights were kinda meaningless,,,,,
jmm-bradley did floyd-baldomir numbers,,,,
and all of that was before floyd became a huge "star" after the oscar fight
Solid numbers but i thought it would be slightly higher,,,
I figured it would do somewhere between 400k-475k,, But 380k isnt too shabby,,, Just shows how much of a draw floyd and manny are, and how hard it is to sell over 500k, let alone a million buys everytime
Marquez and Bradley have small fanbases, Bradley has no fanbase, while those 380k ppv all were for Marquez. Both these guys beat Pacquiao, yet you would think it would make their fanbase grow. JMM just was never loved the way Morales and Barrera were. I think Pacman actually has more Mexican fans than Marquez.
It shows you have to have the It factor to be a draw, just because you beat a name fighter it won't automatically make you a top draw, JMM i guess is just that unlikable that he wasn't able to crossover after that KO of Pacman, or maybe people hated him after that?
Good numbers considering but a rematch to a fight that wasn't a barnburner would do far less , it's only chance would be to stack the undercard and that isn't a certainty
Pac vs unknown opponent like Clottey did 750k plus. This proved these guys can't do numbers without Pac or Floyd as their opponent.
It's the Oscar/24/7 effect. That's why PAC can do big numbers vs unknown boxers like clottey.
Floyd was ridiculed on here for doing 800,000+ ppv buys when fighting a no name in Robert Guerrero. Yet Marquez knocks out Pacquiao and faces undefeated Tim Bradley and the two of them only do 300,000?
I think this proves Floyd is a bigger star than many of his critics like to say he is. Although Mayweather is no Oscar, he's still pretty damn big.
Who's doubting that Floyd is a bigger star than Marquez?

exactly the numbers nsb predicted
wow, we're pretty accurate w these predictions. lol
good numbers, albeit i watched the fight a buffalo wild wings (asian zingers, spicy garlic parmesian are tge best wings btw, which i had)
I've heard that these numbers actually beat the numbers for UFC 166, which was the third hyped fight between Junior Dos Santos and Cain Velasquez. And they said that UFC is taking over boxing? Yeah freaking right.
The UFC card did around 210 k.
The Bradley vs Marquez card did really well with a not-so great undercard.:boxing::boxing::boxing:
People have been spoiled with 1m buy ppv's. This is damn good for two guys who aren't totally mainstream. Damn I love boxing.
These guys are unborn children compare to Canelo the PPV King. Canelo first PPV he pulled 2.2 millions PPV.
