U.S.A = 880,000
EUROPE = 1.5 Million
China = Estimated 50 million people wanted to see this fight....
CEO of Golden Boy Promotions, the event's copromoter, some 50 million Chinese are also expected to be watching. Schaefer couldn't venture a guess as to whether China's fascination was with Mayweather or Hatton.
"It looks like the rest of the world is catching on to the great sport of boxing," said Schaefer, noting that Chinese TV put but a pittance in the fight's overall till. "But if you are going to be seen by 50 million Chinese, it can't hurt, right? I'll have to ask for more money next time."
These numbers are absolutely amazing. Big Boxing matches are the most international and biggest $$$ makers in sports.

They only posted this article saying Mayweather did record UK numbers with Hatton because Manny was going to beat him better 2 years later. They were so much more embarrassed by the way Manny would beat Ricky that they bought Mayweather-Hatton in record numbers because Manny was going to beat him so much better.
