another ****** thread comparing these two sports (especially

[keepthemhandsup]

OMG i'm so tired of these threads......why did i bump this?

[Kakutogi-Gumi]

How much did the Chuck vs Tito fight cost? That should also go into account

Do sports bars count?

Just asking.

No. DLH-Pac will, unfortunetly, do a lot better. And its insane because Couture-Brock will be more exciting, and the card will be much better overall.

With Pac-DLH, you will get a mismatch main event, and probably a horrible undercard. Arum wants to put Juan Manuel Lopez on the undercard in a major title fight, and that would be amazing. But i have my doubts that his opponent will be any good

[Kakutogi-Gumi]

I can see alot of UFC cards, that could do well but Couture-Lesner isnt one of them.

Pac-DLH does alot more buys.

I don't know.

While yeah, Brock/Couture is a bad matchup in experience, stylistically and marketwise, it's a sure seller. Also don't forget that the undercard with Nog/Mir leading will catch some eyes as well.

Pac/DLH can also be good, but remember, people weren't thrilled with "the match that saved Boxing", so DLH's name might create a bit of a backlash. The way I see it, he's going to need to put two big up and comers as the warm up act. Not necessarily brawlers, but guys who love to fight and can make the match look exciting.

Yeah Pac Vs DLH will sell alot more but this probably isnt one of the stronger UFC cards to be honest. Whereas this is a top draw boxing match

A Heavyweight tournament with a possible contention match thrown in isn't a strong card?

[MJ406]

yeah in name recognition only. I still agree with whoever said "because of The World Awaits DLH's name might have a negative vibe attached to it."

plus one small factor (dunno how big this'll be into the large scheme of things)

but the DLH-Pac PPV will cost more (I believe $55) where Couture-Brock will be around $45

If I had to predict now I'd say DLH-Pac will sell more, simply because by the time the fight rolls around, and especially via another HBO 24-7 years I expect a lot more casual fans to be ****** into buying it.

**unless of course the 24/7 is a complete flop, very poorly done with a lame set up where Oscar pretends to act all tough and hard about getting revenge on his former trainer + beating Manny for 4 episodes. The TV show could make or break DLH-Pac IMO.

UFC PPVs never do numbers like boxing mega fights. No UFC event has even come close to Mayweather/Oscar numbers.

You're right. No MMA even has ever put up numbers like Floyd/Oscar, but they do tend to do better when it comes to consistancy in thier ppv numbers.
