Expected, but still massive numbers. By comparison, it doubled the BJS gste and did more than the Wilder/Fury II event.

Damn!!! Place did look WILD!!! That's half of Canelos $$$. I expect the ppv sales to he pretty good as well -
The ginger haired boxer can put the cheeks in the seats and eyes on the TV screens. That means money and it's why both PBC and Matchroom bend over backwards to promote his fights.Comment

And Canelo got paid 40 million up front. Better hope the PPVS numbers are massive or a lot of people are going to lose their jobs due to Canelo not drawing.Comment

No one is going to lose their jobs if they don't make money off this fight lol.
But the gate just did almost 20M, ranking one of the highest gates of ALL TIME. Supposedly, the PPV buys needed to just surpass the 500k mark to break even. It had competition with the UFC PPV, but I think they should be able to reach that mark.

Yeah, the tickets definitely were moving. It's crazy that his fight with 18k can do double the amount his fight against BJS did in terms of gate revenues and that fight had 65k in paid attendance lol.
Vegas is just different man, will always be the mecca of boxing.Comment

LOL, that's the reason I didn't get buy the fight, be funny is PBC tanked because of low numbers.
