The 2nd one did 400K... and only because of the Mexicans.

CUP,

I got similar information and created a thread earlier. So maybe that's corroboration.

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.

Yeah i have no reason to doubt you, I never believed Arum's numbers and never will, Thats why i said i would rather wait for HBO to come up with some sort of number before believing the 2million BS that Arum had some idiots on here spilling out, Those who choose to believe Arum only did for one reason.

It did more than Mayweather-HAtton.

so EJ, you're meaning to say that PAC has equalled Floyd's popularity in America?
