Whether you like pacquiao, mayweather both or neither as boxing fans you always want the sport to do good. The only time boxing outshines the ppv industry is when mayweather or pacquiao fight so for our sports sake we always want there fights to get great ppv buys. Last year so many causal fans bought mayweather vs mosley which won ppv buys for the year with 1.4 mil buy and pac vs marg did 1.15 and a lesnar ufc did 1.1.
The CBS promotion is going to be great primetime a week before, day time the day off and then were a few commercials during the ncaa tournament. However, as much as i love boxing and want it to succedd i am seeing this fight at 800k buys.
THE MAIN REASON IS SPORTSCENTER, ESPN.COM AND ALL SPORTS WORLD HIGHLY COVERED THE MAYWEATHER VS MOSLEY FIGHT. SO MANY CASUAL FANS BOUGHT IT. MOSLEY DIDNT DO **** FROM ROUNDS 3-12.
Do you guys think this is a valid point and will turn away alot of viewers even with CBS and talks of 60 minutes and multiple talk shows which other fights have not gotten. I am praying for 1.5 mil buys so the sport of boxing can show that it is still most popular but i cant see this over 800k
