    How many PPV Buys do you think Mayweather vs. Pacquiao will actually generate?

    Do you think this will be the richest fight in boxing history if the fight comes to fruition? Do you think it will surpass Mayweather vs. De la hoya in PPV Buys and gate?

    1.8-2.1M PPV buys. Nobody's f**kin with Oscar's numbers. He's on another level when it comes to that. He could come out of retirement to fight a bag of sand and do 1M. Heck, that fight between him and Shaquille O'Neal probably would have done 1M on PPV lol

        The hype and interests has fizzled away. Wont beat The World Awaits. I'd say about 1.9 Million.

          After Mayweather/Mosley didn't do as good as expected, I would really doubt this would hit 2 million.

          This fight has lost all steam for me truthfully. Waited to long.

                2 million

                I don't think it would surpass Oscar-Floyd. That fight will forever hold the record for most PPV's sold.

                  With the very best marketing, I think it will hit 2.5 mill.

                  The reason why? Well Pacquaio has many fans from Mexico and Philipines that live in the US. He also has a fair few casual american fans.

                  Then Mayweather, he's got quite a lot fo fans from the US, and some haters. He can get into the black market for real. He's also pretty well known in the US as a sportsman I believe.

                  This fight will have the best 24/7 ever.

                  HBO will market this fight so badly.

                  GBP/Top Rank will market this like no other fight.

                  The talk on the net will be so damn huge.

                  Every TV show will want them and talk about it.

                  The famous stars will talk about it.

                  This mofo fight is a world fight, East and West. The best of the best.

                  Both of them are great at their styles. **** Mayweather gonna chat so much **** that even 85 year old women will want to watch it.

                  Every fighter/boxer will buy it.

                  Every MMA fan will buy it (Maybe)

                  I don't care what you say, Manny has always been the only guy that is maybe underdog of 2-1 to May. Everyone else has been a really big underdog to me.

                  Every bar will buy it. Every barbers will buy it. A lot of fans of sports will buy it, maybe be their first time.

                    I was going to list all these reasons...but it does not matter.

                    I think 3 million. I know I will be the high guess here, but there it is.
