400K?The Mosley PPV did nearly 400,000,since when was this poor numbers,thats one of the better numbers for most PPVs today
Dawson-Johnson ( a great fight ) and Tarver-Woods was on the same night
Plus UFC,one of there main guys St-Peirre(?) was fighting,i think they need to take this before they make these articals.
You are quoting an Arum number. That is a BS number. The true number was around 300K. Perhaps somewhat lower.Comment

Would you please explain "adjust for inflation"? How does inflation factor into PPV "buys". Not revenues, but buys.At the time of De La Hoya vs Trinidad theirs was a lot of people who had illegal cable boxes, and theirs was no digital cable like their is today to prevent it.
Had De La Hoya vs Trinidad take place in this time with 24/7 / Digital Cable / Golden Boy Promotions it would have done a lot more. Keep in mind you also have to adjusted for inflation.Comment

1) I'm going to ask for your help to a link to that "official" number. Please.
2) I have never seen the numbers roll up 20%. That seems exceedingly high. Usually, it's like 5%.Comment

Those are the numbers that I got.
NO WAY did Cotto-Mosley do 400K. If he had, HBO wouldn't have followed with a free bout that ended up with terrible ratings. These executives are in the business of making money. With all due respect, it is kinda unwise to give credibility to an Arum number.Comment
