    Kevin Iole is generally credible. But he is way off here. By a factor of 2x.

    This fight does 550K PPV buys in the US.

        Ya know, guys on here never realize that. Because there are a zillion threads about this fight and we discuss it for months, they forget that we are a tiny portion of the population.

        Watch....there will be VERY few A-list celebs at this fight.

                    800K is May-Ricky level. That's with Floyd hyping it on a highly-rated TV show, and with more recognition for the Mayweather name than the Pacquiao name among the casual or non-fan.

                    Also, the Floyd-Ricky 24/7 was probably the best one. Pac doesn't have the personality to hype a fight like that. I guess that's why the trainers are doing it.

                    This feels more like Winky-Tito.... 500-600K.
