How would Movie Theaters Playing Mayweather/Mosley effect the ppv sales?

[DE100]

That's the ****ty thing. This will drive down PPV numbers, since theater tickets don't count towards PPV. So even though many more people might actually be watchig the fight with 400+ theaters showing it, people will consider it a failure if it only does 1.4 million buys or something.

every person that watch it in theatre will be counted, that's what makes mayweather-marquez get the ppv reach to 1 million.

Why do you find that funny? Almost everyone on this forum is expecting over 1.5 million, and Schaeffer said 4 million. Anything under 1.5 is a ****in failure.

Nah. If you think about it. This fight has over 400 theaters. At even 100 people per theater, that's only 40k.

May/Marquez didnt have anywhere near 400 theaters.

No you just dont use your brain, just cause Richard says 4 Million Im suppose to go brain dead and think thats a number that can be reached? ummmm no.

Most people are expecting 1-2 Million. Which is a success for any PPV.

No.. Most people expect over 1.5. To deny that shows how deluded you are over one fighter.

Great, so if the fight does 1.4 - .499 (6th All time range) its a failure?

Dude just because people have incredibly high expectations(too high if I do say so myself) doesn't mean 1.4 million buys would be a failure. Do you know how many fights have sold more than 1.4 million buys? You could count them on both hands.
