What are your predictions, judging by how little media showed up for the NY kick off presser it was actually the least of media showing up, no FOX news, no ABC news, not sports illustrated, yahoo, etc
just the youtubers like ESNews, fighthype, fight hub, ldbc channels, etc no credible big news outlets
Also the buzz is very small, unless Fox hypes it up big time on their channels I dont see it doing well.
Pac vs Broner had more buzz early and did a bit over 400,000 buys
Im thinking this one will do 250-300k buys, remember Thurman isn't known as Broner.
Dude, you need to review your timeline. You're way off with your assumptions
Pacquiao bashed gays twice first time they forgave him the second time they didnt.
If this fight doesn't reach 400k ppv buys, Broner should make another ppv fight for himself quickly. He should take advantage of his rising 'popularity'
This is true. Abc banned him from doing jimmy kimmel, and lost all his American sponsors. you never talk against gay marriage or call trannies sick r else you will be screwed in hollywood.
I think if pac never talked against the gays the mayweather vs pacquiao fight could have done 6 million buys and the gay mafia would have got the judges to sway his way, pacman used to have clout when he dissed the gays he lost to Bradley in a fight people thought he won lol.

Between 200K and 300K.
Pacquiao vs. Broner was one of the worst PPV fights of all-time and Thurman almost got stopped by Josesito Lopez so a lot of people are going to be turned off by this fight.
Lol no not gonna happen. That’s too low.
Man thurman looked terrible in that fight lol. He looked old and slow and soft.
He let lopez dictate the fight. He let lopez margarito him.
Yea, but was entertaining and did good ratings. If people will expect a 50/50 or competitive fight, more buys.
Things will pick up close to the fight...This is a dangerous fight for Manny and its guaranteed to be a good fight. Thurman falling off the map kinda hurt this fight tho cuz he was never that big at his peak.
But overall it will do good #s
All they need to do is pull up some old keith thurman highlights... and try to make everyone forget the josesito lopez fight happened lol.
That will catch the mainstream attention.
The casuals don’t know about Lopez but they can use it to their advantage to promote fight
Show older highlights and then show what happened on the last fight
That’ll bring some back , the intrigue factor with Thurman , is he done or can he comeback
Pac’s Story sells itself , just gotta make enough noise about it and casuals will jump on

Hell even use some of the Josesito highlights, if nothing that fight was entertaining IMO. This will do really solid numbers especially if they do put on the rumored solid undercard. The Caleb Plant lead in will definitely help sell it
I think so too.
It makes zero sense to gauge this ppv by the broner fight.
Even casual fight fans know broner is a joke and a clown.
The fight fans know this is a good fight.
That’s exactly my feeling
Only boxing fans fall for AB bullchit , try to convince themselves wtv
But this has a little of everything and should do very well
Hopefully they get on with the promotion and all
Probably gonna make awesome coin on this promotion , the more I think about it
I think this will do very well
Lots of people gonna be watching to see if Pac will go into retirement
Young vs old etc etc
They’ll be a lot of curious casuals if they get it out there
