I just spoke with my source for the PPV numbers. She informed me that the preliminary numbers for Hatton-Pacquiao are "DEFINITELY LOWER" than the buy rates for Oscar-Pac.
We discussed the 1.6 million to 2 million buys that Arum mentioned. Her response was "not even close. Is he talking about worldwide buys?"
She is in the process of rolling up the RBOC's and should have a pretty good estimate for me very soon - as early as this afternoon.
Further, she discussed Manny Pacquiao's selling potential and said the industry is high on him based on the 400K sales for MP-JMM. That was a very good number for the "140 and lower" weight classes. The last time they saw numbers like that in the lower classes was PBF-Gatti (370K).
Note: longtime posters will know that I usually have the PPV nums early, and they're materially correct. We'll see.
