Pacquiao vs Margarito: 500,000 buys is pushing it.

[cleaner147]

if pac did 700k with someone like clottey than he will do min. 900k+++ with Tony and his shady backround.

[Ryannn]

i think we'll see it around 850-900K. but we cant underestimate the huge amount of love the mexicans have for Margs so 1mil isnt out of reach in my mind.

not to mention the Cain Velasquez win probably made the Mexican community want to root for another underdog...

[damned1974]

whats well over?

I think it could reach close to a million...they have hyped this fight up and had a 24/7, as well as emphasized that this will be a competitive fight with Pac being lazy and Tony being focused.They have used Tony's handwraps as controversy that evokes interest.

It should do close to a million ppv...hell,he got 700,000 ppv with boring ass no named,no hope Clottey! Where is that guy these days anyways??? Probably busy spending his "bonus" he got from Jerry Jones AFTER the fight....

[PrinceCharlez]

atleast 1 million

how does it do a million when pac alone doesnt even do a million? And Margarito sure as hell doesnt have the drawing power. Maybe if this fight happened years ago. Like when Pac was coming off a de la hoya stoppage and Margarito was coming off a Cotto stoppage then yeah. But i dont see that happening.

[puga]

it'll be the biggest this year, atleast 1 million!

[THE_BIG_HURT]

it'll be the biggest this year, atleast 1 million!

i hope it is the biggest but Floyd/Mosley was this year and it did 1.4 mil so 1 million wont cut it for this year.

[PrinceCharlez]

it'll be the biggest this year, atleast 1 million!

bigger then Floyd and shane? Not saying that FLoyd and shane did huge numbers but its gonna be hard to top that. I bet if Martinez vs Williams was PPV tht would sell like hot cakes. Who dont want to see Williams get knocked out this time?

BUt well have to wait and see what Margarito and Pac can do. I'll be shocked if the top 500,000 buys.

[nozorok]

It should break 1 Million without too much trouble as controversy sells fights and being Mexican with a large Mexican fanbase doesn't hurt either in Texas.

i hope it is the biggest but Floyd/Mosley was this year and it did 1.4 mil so 1 million wont cut it for this year.

oh yeah forgot about that..lol.... then it'll be 2nd!...it'll be the 3rd where theres 2 over a millino buys in the history of ppv if im not mistaken....

[SuckaPunch]

i honestly don't think this fight will break a million buys, despite the hardcore fans' optimistic predictions.

i predict 700-950K.
