spence-porter was 250-300, based on that this does about 200
Does less than that fight? Interesting.
I think the shoulder programming for this fight has done better numbers than Spence/Porter. Both got good spots with the NFL/College Fball games, but this one got better spots for their countdown/fight camp shows.
200k buys would be disappointing.
Don't Care! That is for FOX to worry about but According to Bill Wagner at FOX they seem to be extremely happy with the results they're getting with their PPV's :dunno:
For those saying there is no buzz are likely underestimating the power of FOX promoting the fight. The fight has been getting good viewership for their supporting programming. And their latest fight camp was airing after the pre-game show on FOX.
I think it will exceed 300k buys. Maybe not much more than that, but LIS in the OP, I think it does around 350-400k buys.
I dont know how its been promoted in America but i hear pretty well. I also hear ticket prices were slashed big time as they were not shifting and its likely because its a rematch of a fight nobody asked for and nobody cares about. But Wilder is one of America's big sellers.
I can see going to 200k. Which i reckon is likely below break even money. No wonder Showtime didnt bother with it. They sick of making a loss off of Wilder no matter how much Weasel Espinoza loves him.
:alcoholic
Sorry, I gotta laugh at that one. The Klitschko's were even better well known than Wilder. He's nowhere close to being a draw even in the USA.
So make your predictions.
I will say 300-350k buys.
PPV is dead for anyone not named Canelo or Pacquiao I'm afraid. No way it even reaches 200k buys. There is zero buzz about this fight at all.

100-150k. Coppinger will bull**** 300k and the gullible idiots will believe him. It would need to sell 300k just to cover the so called guarantee of Ortiz without Wilder's purse included. Some fans believe anything. :lol1:
What is Ortiz's guaranteed purse for the fight? 5M?
