Official PPV numbers are always hidden but Bob Arum says in an interview he knows the official numbers. UFC has never done over 1mill ppv buys in reality(they claim to have about 7times)
So this fight happened already? Lmfao, I didn't even know, I thought this thread was predicting an upcoming fight, not a bumped thread. Na, no way, this had no chance. Absolutely zero talk by anyone I know.
Canelo vs Cotto will do more than this fight.
Last night ppv is looking more like 500k buys.
Original Poster is mma fanboy jealous of the numbers Mayweather vs Pacquiao did.
Canelo vs Cotto can easily do around 1.5mill. Big support would come from Mexicans, Puerto Ricans and Americans.
I have heard of McGregor but not Aldo TBH. A fight that breaks 2mill has to be one of those fights where the two combatants are known outside of the MMA circle and are internationally known. It has to be two guys who have surpassed superstar status.
Not trolling either, Ive seriously never heard of any of those guys
That means you're just like a casual MMA fan. Not that the guys fighting aren't any good or known. That card was stacked! I'm a fan so I knew everyone who was fighting.

What has this thread to do in the NSB section? Come on, it's not that hard to separate boxing and MMA.
UFC 189 will never do 2M PPV buys! Who projected those numbers? And UFC 187 will never do 1.5M. You need pretty strong crack to come up with those numbers.
What has McGregor done to be #3 at featherweight? Beat#5 Porier and #10 Siver. Hardly impressive, when you have Chad Mendes and Frankie Edgar at #1 and #2.
McGregor talks, that's all. As soon as Aldo puts some leg kicks at him, it's over.
The thing I like about the UFC PPV's is that Joe Rogan actually knows what he's talking about, unlike guys like Lampley in boxing.
I'm not even trolling, I heard of Weidman before but I have no idea who he's fighting or the other guys.

Exactly, never heard of these guys and dont even hear anyone talkin about this fight

LMAO it'll be lucky to break 1.5. With that being said, McGregor is a modern day Ali. He is brash and ****y but so entertaining that you are drawn to him like moths to a flame.
That is great for UFC! UFC needs McGregor to win, with that personality and his style inside and outside of the Octagon, that dude if he wins is going to be a SUPERSTAR.
UFC Card last night was great stuff from start to finish!:hail:
Aldo vs Conor promo is BAD ASS! I look forward to that matchup
Seems like there's a lot of buzz around it. A lot of the same non-fight people I know who were talking about Pac/Floyd are talking about Mc/Aldo now. And yeah it will probably be a better fight (that's not saying much).
It's definitely not Pac/Floyd level but might do Floyd/Cotto numbers.
