Isn’t Meltzer the wrestling mark? Didn’t know he covered boxing.

[hectari]

Meltzer is usually spot on with this, but If Showtime doesn't announce the numbers than that means they were low under 500k, just like with the Floyd Mayweather vs Andre Berto, Showtime didn't officially announce any numbers.

[hectari]

We will never know the exact Numbers but I'm sure Showtime will Embellish the Final Numbers and say it did over 1 Million Buys or something like all these Networks and Apps do

Naw Showtime like HBO cannot embellish numbers bro, they are public entity. This is not UFC or Triller that fluff the numbers. When Floyd fought Berto, Showtime never released numbers because the numbers were very poor and this was Floyd coming off his biggest ppv and win and said it was his retirement fight yet nobody tuned in and the weigh in was empty and the arean wasnt sold out yet his fans claim Floyd can sell millions against a janitor, we knew that wasnt true he also needed a name and he thought logan paul was a big name like Conor and would be easy work for big money, if the ppv does lower than they expect they will just stay silent. If it does high numbers they boast about it.

Remember when Floyd vs Conor happened and Dana white told his followers the ppv did over 6.6 million ppv buys and then Stephen Espinoza of Showtime corrected Dana White and said that is not true and the numbers are tracking toward 3.5 million but less than Floyd vs Pacquiao.

Dana got mad and said who side are you on? lo Dana was including international numbers, Showtime only counts USA numbers when they release buys and they are not allowed to pitch false numbers because of investors.

Yeah he is the wrestling guy but he been covering boxing and ufc for years too, he just doesn't cover it like dan rapheal but he always covers the ppv events and stuff he just isnt a boxing head who analyzes fights and writes about it. He used to go to all the big boxing events covering the fight.

[The Big Dunn]

So he's saying over 600k TV buys? Yeah, this is definitely hitting over the million mark once they add the streaming buys.

I think the fact the servers crashed suggests your correct.

There's a lot of dumb white boys in the country though.

I know. That’s why I call the Paul Bros. the epitome of white privilege. They literally are.

No talent, not funny, not athletes, not singers, not good actors, etc. Just typical suburban blue eyed blonde haired douche bags who are successful simply because a big chunk of the US population looks like them and relates to their lame generic personas aka young dumb white boys.

Lol someone here said Logan Paul was guaranteed $20 Million......this forum just loves throwing out random numbers to mislead people and hope it sticks.

Lol someone here said Logan Paul was guaranteed $20 Million......this forum just loves throwing out random numbers to mislead people and hope it sticks.

I thought Paul was guaranteed $250,000 but with 10 percent of the PPV, lol he got screwed, Floyd actually robbed Showtime he got a Guarantee of $10 million and 50 percent of PPV buys. If the PPV only sold 450,000 to 650.000 buys at 49.99 Showtime will taking a loss if they had to pay Logan 20 million
