    PBC, Al Haymon probably lost a lot of money in this one.

    Ugas was an unknown to the boxing casuals. The momentum that Spence/Pac had was lost, I think if it sold 250k it did well considering the weak undercard and a match up nobody asked for.

    The hardcore fans that went and said all these id1otic things deserve all the incoming they get.

      Not surprising as most PPV buys come in one the day of the event. People that bought tickets probably still went but Spence being out basically killed this fight doing a good PPV number.
      I know I was considering buying it for Spence/Pac but made other plans when Ugas stepped in.

        I don't believe this. I need more evidence and proof; No pun intended. However, if the rumors are true then this is not a good look.

        Had Erroll Spence co-headlined this event; I am pretty sure it would have sold well. Perhaps as close to a million pay per view buys. Unfortunately, this just goes to show that Pac can no longer carry an entire PPV event alone or by himself.

        Over time people tastes and values change. He needs a good dancer partner and promoter in order for a pay per view fight to sell well. Hardly, any casual fans had ever heard of the name Yordenis Ugas before.

        This is an ominous sign that Manny is an outdated, aging and washed out fighter who is now well past his prime. This is a whole new day that we are living in and sadly there is no longer a demand for Pac's services.

          Floyd killed Pac's drawing power.

            Obviously more would’ve been sold had Spence not gotten injured and was able to fight.
