    that doesn't add up

    500K buys yes, but not 250K
    Estimated PPV Revenue
    250,000 * $40 = 10,000,000

    Estimated Ticket Sales - Lets say if the average ticket price is $200
    13,000 * $200 = 2,600,000

    That accounts for 13m, and fight sponsorship, merchandising, foreign tv deals, and Setanta would have probably added another 5m.

    I would guess that all revenue streams combined made up the boxers purses, but I doubt HBO made any money, and that is not very good for boxing.
