    UFC 91 which featured Randy Couture v Brock Lesnar got 800K buys. They were hoping for million plus but given the economy that's a good figure

    Can Pac v DLH surpass that figure ?
    that's not really fair because lesnar brought all the wwe people w/ him.

        I think Pac/DLH would do big numbers internationally. No doubt.

          Way off topic, but that Hazelett sub was disgusting. Can't believe that guy is only 22yo.

            The way Omaplatas are supposed to look.

            I'm surprised he learned from Jorge Gurgel.

              those are good numbers for ufc . . . but people really like their captain america. it think pac dlh will outsell it. i cant believe ufc is still getting those numbers the last cards and fights havent even been that good imo.

                  Gurgel =

                  He's had more 2nd chances than just about anyone except Couture himself. He's Strikeforce's problem now though.

                  I agree that on paper they haven't looked that good, but UFC 91 was probably top 3 as far as great events go, IMO. 90 was good as well, the Sherk vs. Griffin fight was great, very technical by MMA's standard and Thiago Alves proved that he's the new man to beat at 170.

                  DLH vs. Pacman will top both though, no doubt in my mind.

                    they dont tally ppv number internationally and the fight is free in the philippines.

                    DLH will bring in his usual million pac will bring in 300k plus the casual fans prolly around 1.5.
