UK PPV Figures for Hatton-manny?

[Rastamouse]

This is going to sound pretty contradictory.
You didn't have to subscribe to anything but you had to have cable or sky.

I failed to mention that it was the same for the Mayweather fight.

I have no idea.
Maybe it was Hatton fighting on Setanta (I think the Castillio fight was). You had to pay an extra tenner a month to subscribe to the channel.

it's weird you have to subscribe to order ppv though.

in america even if you don't have hbo , you can order a hbo ppv.

Well you don't need Sky Sports, just basic sky or cable to order PPV.

But anyone who want's to order a PPV fight probably already has the sports channels.

Anyone with freeview can order SkySports. Not everyone can order ppv. Not yet anyway

it definitely didn't sell as much as mayweather-hatton.

mayweather-hatton you could have ordered even without a subscription.

for pacquiao-hatton they had the bright idea that you can only order the ppv if you had a subscription.

they thought they'd up their subscribers that way.

I wasnt signed up to subscription and bought the PPV?

Yeah anyone with freeview can get Sky Sports 1 and 2.
All I said was that you need sky or cable to order pay per view.

According to media reports 400-500 thousand.
