    Could Mayweather/Pacquiao reach the mindboggling 3 MILLION PPV buys?

    The amount of press, promotion, marketing, hype this fight will get will be incredibly ridiculous. It will most likely be the most talked about sports event of whatever year it happens after the Superbowl and NBA champion ship especially if it's held in a stadium such as Cowboy's Stadium (finger's crossed). This will be the fight that stars from other sports will want to go to. This will be the fight were the first 5 rows on each side will have nothing but celebrities sitting in them.

    Could this fight reach or break 3 million?

        If it got up near 2 I think that would be a tremendous feat.

          I thought only the US/Canada PPV numbers counted?

              No i dont think so. As stated, i think it could also possibly reach 2, no way will it hit 3.

                  I'm being real and I'll say YES. During Mayweather/ Marquez's build up to Numero Uno everyone was talking Mayweather vs. Pacquiao. During Manny Pacquiao/ Cotto's build up to Fire Power everyone was talking Mayweather vs. Pacquiao. In fact, right after Pacquiao beat DLH; not Hatton but Oscar, everyone was talking Mayweather vs. Pacquiao. The hype is too big and almost everyone is predicting this could break Mayweather/ Oscar's PPV number. They should also stack the undercard, add Marquez, Valero...something of that sort.

                    2 million is mind boggling as it is.

                    I think they could do DLH-Mayweather numbers or just below.
