    For all of those in denial, If it did in fact do 1.3mil or better, it would have been announced by now. I doesnt take 3 weeks to count 1.3m ppv buys. Likely scenario is, it did far less and they dont want to reveal that it fell below expectations.

      Took Top Rank forever to announce the Pac Mosley numbers and that turned out to be Manny's biggest PPV.

      Things take time, especially when people like Schaefer are busy promoting. All indications are it did over 1 million, this is simply a rumor someone started.

          What does the Pac/Mosley #'s have to do with the Floyd/Ortiz #'s? Pac isnt the one running around talking about how he's the ppv king/cash cow of boxing. Floyd is. Therefore his #'s are always going to be scrutinized.

          Secondly, how is it that they tallied up the 2.4mil buys for Floyd/Oscar faster than they can for Floyd's latest fight with Ortiz?

            It took Arum over a month to announce Pac vs Mosely #s and it sold well, I don't think delay has to do with any potential disappointment

                Let me make this real simple for you, When Canelo fights, look at how many show up to support him at the event....

                Cross compair that when Floyd fought Castillo the first and second time....

                Big difference kid, the Latinos in So Cal, in the Southwest really, and in Mexico Love this ****ing kid, I dont expect you to know this because you dont likely live in these areas but its the ****in truth they all talk about him when he has a fight comming up... They all turn out when he fights evidence like I said is in the ticket sales.

                  With the undercard and all I thought it would do 1,3-1,5. Maybe it did, who knows. 850k would be disappointing.

                  Not that I really care though.

                    Canelo fought on the undercard of a PPV that did around 200K on the same date last year. Just stop.
