That's pretty good, right?

Yes it is brilliant in a boxing sense, anything over 500k is a great success for me but the problem is that lad mouth promoter predicting 3 million

Like i said before, whenever people look at this fights ppv sales they will compare it to the 3m predicted which will make it look very bad.

someone here posted a day or two ago that early numbers were running at 1.3M, now its down to 1.1?

[Bring It On]

If it's accurate, I think we can all agree that it's way less then anticipated.

I thought it would make about 2 million buys.

Well its a failure in a sense that it didnt break records like it was reported. Here we have the most promoted fight in boxing history, with two top WW that are American. I would have expected 1.5-2.0 mil.

[bojangles1987]

It's an absolutely perfect number, because it means it did pretty much the same as Pacquiao-Cotto, which means no bullsh** over the split. They did nearly exactly the same numbers with the same kind of opponent.

not a failure.......but Richard Schaeffer shouldn't have come out and predicted 4 million lol

thats just too much pressure to live upto

anything over 1 million is ****ing incredible

i agree

pity they didn't fight in 2007 it would have done much better

pacquiao-cotto two non american fighters = 1.25million ppv (very impressive)
floyd-mosley two american fighers = 1.2 million ppv (impressive)

[Boss Don]

I thought it would do more but they not bad numbers at all
