    Pacquiao-Clottey will do less than a million buys

    What do you think?

    I personally won't be shelling out the money for this fight, so I'm guessing a lot of fans will do the same. I don't see this fight selling a million.

    I think that's true. I doubt it will sell more than a million.

      It'll do okay. 600k-700k ish.

      How come you aren't buying it?

        I'm not a big PPV guy anyway. I don't buy unless I'm really excited about a fight. I just don't see this as a great matchup. I see Pacquiao's speed just dominating the fight and Clottey will not have the volume to win a decision. It's just not that intriguing enough for me to buy.

        Plus I doubt my friends (who are just casual fans) would be down for throwing down cash on it either, which makes it even less appealing.

          I think it will fail to even reach the 750,000 mark. To reach a million buys you need 2 names, not one. People tend to forget that there hasn't been that many million plus ppvs in the history of boxing.

            Fair enough. I see Pacquiao winning pretty easily due to the points you stated too, but I'm looking forward to seeing how he handles Clottey's watertight defense and also his straight and accurate punches.

            And I know I'm in the minority but I think the undercard looks pretty good.

                It will do at least 1.2 mil ppv buys. Ticket buys will be 60k

                  I think it is true just because he didn't do the 1 mil with Hatton. and nobody is really buying it for Clottey.

                    I think it will be around 1.2 millions.


                    PACQUIAO is biggest star out there and he will prove it once again.
