        More importantly, it’s the money lost for people who couldn’t watch the fight.

        if a person received a confirmation when they bought it, PPV Showtime keeps that metric. What isn’t mentioned is the refunding for all the callers who couldn’t watch it. These callers are a customer service issue metric and on record.

        Floyd already knew ahead of time that the “servers crashed.” Why would anybody relay that to him as if it were important? So if it sold 700K PPV’s, expect, a server crashing, that half of those people will be reimbursed. A huge loss, but Showtime PPV won’t report on reimbursement, only the metric they stole

        a server is easily able to handle bandwidth of 500K live redirects

            I didn’t feel much buzz with the fight.

            Thats why I questioned Floyd’s payday for this fight, unless it was a guarantee, I don’t see him getting more than $50M max, and that’s based on good ppv numbers with his cut.

            That said, 600K seems reasonable but might be on the low end.


            Pac Spence is doing 1M for sure.

              PPV went to how many countries worldwide ? Each country had its own advertising and they were big companies paying for the airtime ?

              Most of their money would be generated through advertising and merchandise

                No one outside of dumb white boys in the US care about Logan Paul. And Floyd doesn’t command that demand overseas as much as before.
                His sham is about dried up.

                  He made more money than Manny made last fight, the fight aired in multiple countries and they all had major ads playing.

                  Floyd could do another fight and still make a fortune it all depends on opponents, but I guess that's a little bit over your head to fathom.

                    I read that like 98% of the buys came the day of the fight. Like someone else mentioned, the volume of the orders shut down the showtime app. I was trying to watch the 4 kings documentary and couldn't.

                      What’s Floyd Paul have to do with Manny?
                      LMAO You got PDS. Pacquiao Derangement Syndrome.




                      Nobody outside the US cared for Logan Paul Mayweather. Nobody outside the US knows about Logan Paul is. He’s the definition of white privilege in America.
                      This fight was crap and Floyd is inflating his income unless like I said, he gotta guarantee up front.
