Hatton-Pacquiao PPV sales disappoint...under 650K US buys.

[The Gambler1981]

hmm.. thats def not 2 million buys..

I think he added US and UK together to get to that number. This would seem right up old Bob's ally, coloring the truth to make things seem his way.

[I Got Bummed]

Only black men can make 2 million buys.

[QUISQUEYA]

how can I when there aren't any numbers yet? And even if you're right, so what you received info before other people. wow so impressive. As if you're responsible for this amazing accomplishment.

That's one way to look at it.

Another way to look at it is "This dude is giving me some info. may be right. may not be. Since his numbers have always been pretty close in the past, i'll withhold judgment"

Buit you choose the bitchy sarcastic route.

To get to 2 mil, that would mean that Hatton-pac did substantially more across the pond than hatton-may.

Right?

[QUISQUEYA]

Well whatever can adjust for that, 700,000*55=38,500,000 add in the gate which was what 9 million? I have no clue what they would get for sponsorships but a few million probably got tacked on.

TO me if you do double the business that you are paying out in base purses your event is minted.

You forgot to add in the casino site fee.

Right?

Well Hatton/May did 900K British buys, this could've done 850K and still reached 1.5 mill total. I thought Arum said 1.5 to 2 mill.

Right?

Well I do not really listen to what Bob Arum has to say. Well I listen but I consider the source. 1.3 million in the UK would be kind of a lot, I figured it would approach a million. 1.5-1.6 million total buys could be rounded up to 2 million, if you went to Harvard Business school.

lol naw not sensitive at all , just sayin it was a big fight , that a lot of people were talkin about on monday, at least thats what it seemed like. lol leafblower funny.

What's with the sensitivity?

Nobody is or has denigrated Pac. Or Hatton. Merely reporting some numbers that I get from an industry source from my job. Why would anyone be motivated to 'lie' about anything? Calmate.

You had people at your house. Great. There are fight parties for every big fight. In fact, the bigger the fight, the more (and bigger) the fight parties.

If you want the number, there it is. If you have another number, present it. If you don't care, why are you in the thread, Leafblower?

[QUISQUEYA]

Arum and I share an alma mater.... but I never believe anything he says.

As I mentioned earlier, he withheld the Cotto-Shane and Cotto-Marg numbers so that he can present a positive (super-bearish) spin on those numbers.

If the nums are strong, he releases. if they are soft, he plays it close to the vest.

The best way to get the nums is from TWI's 10Q. As a public company, they have to disclose anything material.

Yea that also, they should have got a very large one to boot considering how many people Ricky dragged into Vegas from England that would otherwise have no inkling of going there.

I think Vegas casino managers were even more crushed then Hatton fans at the result of this fight.
