How is one credible and the other not? Both were reported by the same person? LOL.

[the_ilest]

and let me guess the undercard had nothing to do with the numbers right? With the mexican holiday and all!! Lol like mayweather was the only attraction for this fight!!

you hit the mark. come on most mexicans bought that pay per view for canelo, morales, etc. The reason why mayweather sells well because he expands his revenue outreach potential. put it this way, mayweather attracts black ppv buyers, mex-american for ortiz, mexicans for canelo and morales. the man is a smart business man. They know how to sell ppv unlike bob arum. The best way to sell ppv is to attract different cultures.

Dan reported the number based on a press release.

[Everywhere]

So this fight is reportedly the 2nd highest grossing non-heavyweight fight of all time...and the haters still want to declare it a failure...

[lacson]

Arum the owner is a proven liar. He has a consistent track record in spewing lies and then backtracking later. And he has a proven track record of bribery. So he is not really a credible source of information. You always have to question the validity of his statements.

I'm not surprised if the lie is on the low side like I said. That way he keeps more for himself and less to the fighter. If he lies on the high side, he'll have to pay the fighter's ppv cut based on that higher number. So if you do the math, if he didn't make those high numbers and he publicly says their high, his fighter will be demanding a ppv cut based on those publicly inflated numbers.

What's so hard to comprehend here.
