    May 2nd's Hatton-Pacquiao fight could reach 2 million PPV buys

    USA Today reported Monday that early indications from cable companies were that the scheduled 12-round light-welterweight bout could get as many as two million buys.

    Co-promoter Bob Arum was delighted with the figures especially as initial estimates were suggesting about one million boxing fans would shell out their cash.

    "We know based on those early numbers and based on experience the event will perform extremely well. If I had to guess, anywhere between 1.6 million and two million homes, which is a home run," he said.
    mayweather should be lucky to get 35 percent of the purse. look at these staggering numbers from pacquiao.

          yeah hatton will always do #s in uk ..**** if i was fightin him he would do a half a million
          that would be like doing 2 million in the us since uk is much smaller population wise
          edit

          1,000,000 ppv buts in the uk is equal to 5.15 million in the united states ...
