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

[Ray*]

Most things about Bob Arum is alway suspect, Have never seen or heard an "Official" numbers for the Cotto/Margarito PPV and now we havent heard the "official" numbers for the Hatton/Paq fight.

[Dave Rado]

That figure is from insider reports.

Notice there is no announcement from HBO yet. The figures are in, and Arum has requested that the numbers not be published.

Domestic US PPV buys are under 650K. Disappointing.

Dan Rafael begs to differ. His sources (which are usually pretty good) claim around 850k US and over 1 million UK.

But when the figures finally DO come out, I will be clowning the morons who said I was WRONG.

825,000 - 850,000

Looks like you were only around 20% off, any shmuck could've guessed a number within these boundaries as long as they were somewhat reasonable. I'm not saying these are end-all be-all numbers, but I'm guessing in the coming days and weeks we'll see figures that back this statement up.

I'd suggest firing your "source," because he just made you look like a fool.

[Marduke]

More than half you kids stream the damn thing, so you can't really criticize the numbers.

Translation:

'Damn, Q was right. I didn't see it coming...but he was right'

You ***ing moron... Hatton/Pac sold 1.1M in the UK, 415K in the Philippines and 850K in the US. How is that dissapointing?

why did they ban the clown? i mean the TS ?

[Scott9945]

I also have a frien who knows an hbo excutive and she stated the numbers were less then 600,000

they don't want to release the numbers due to the fac that they are trying to hype pacman as the next oscar and he is less of a draw then pbf.

watch how soon they release the numbers for floyd vs marquez

Who here could possibly be ****** enough to believe anything a ***** like you would say?

[studentofthegam]

I agree 650 is good considering that the most vivid memory we have of Hatton is the guy floyd knocked out. Hat is never gonna get me to spend 50 bucks to watch his wrestling matches which end up with him unconcious.
