Pacquiao vs. Mosley does 1.3 Million PPV - Official Numbers

How does Pacquiao achieve this kind of numbers against a bum, with no meaningful undercard, and on a non-Mexican holiday? Plus, he fights twice per year. If he only fought once per year, the numbers would probably be much higher due to the fact that he will be missed by his fans for so long.

I'm bringing this up because the numbers for Mayweather vs. Ortiz has only been a very disappointing 1.25 PPV buys despite the fact that it was a Mexican card with Canelo Alvarez, Eric Morales, and Victor Ortiz fought during a Mexican holiday. Plus, Floyd only fights once every 14 months to ensure that he will be missed for a long time by his fans. No doubt, his audience gets cut in half if he fought more often.

How does Pacquiao achieve huge number even without a great undercard and very little promotion?

Looks like FightHype and Floyd Mayweather completely own the opening poster and the majority of the posters on this board right about now...

Think of some good, original names for your next tour, garbage fans...

I wouldn't worry about all the trolls that liter blogs, forums, etc. Just keep reporting facts and real fans will take note.

For starters, can we get an interview with a showtime exec or whoever gives "official" ppv tallies? Can we get an accurate report of the revenue pacq is generating. So when they try to run from the table in december, all the fans and so called media will know each fighters market value?

Your article was from May this year, and this is what it said.

CBS's cross-promotion, which included three episodes of "Fight Camp 360" on the network, helped the Showtime pay-per-view card generate 1.3 million to 1.4 million buys. The final tally is expected this week.

"It was a very successful promotion," Arum said. "Manny doing 1.3, 1.4 million buys is outstanding."

As evident in these quotes, that these numbers are estimates and there is no official numbers to date. Arum is guessing and estimating the numbers the fight generated not the actual numbers

Still waiting for the official numbers
