    It is sad that you don´t even have to be the best to be the ppv king on your sport, look at Lesnar lol.

        680k is the domestic number for Wrestlemania, if you want to add international than it's around 1.1-1.3million.
        It’s estimated that UFC, which didn’t publicly release figures, did nearly 8 million buys in the United States and Canada on 13 pay-per-view events this past year.

        That aint America

          cotto vs margarito 2 doing 600k+ is a great sign for boxing!

          guys what other match-ups not involving pac or pbf do you think that can bring in such numbers?

          can cotto-martinez do as much?

            Where did you get those number for Manny vs JMM? I saw 1.2 and 1.3 but nothing confirmed.

              it is a great sign. I saw no to Martinez, Cotto vs Marg had the epic first fight, the hate between the two fighters and the controversy about the handwraps...

              Martinez is talented, but pretty bland from a marketing standpoint.

                  I think Saul Alvarez vs. Miguel Cotto can do real big numbers in 2012.

                    Manny only got those number's because everyone who is filipno in the US buy's his fights. I'd say 90% of his buys are filipino. But buys are buys.

                      Well no shit ******....90% of every fighters PPV is because of their fan base.

                      Who you think bout Cotto-Mayorga? 90% of Cotto fan base, who you think bought Cotto-Margarito? 90% of Cotto fan base and 90% of Margarito fan base. Who do you think bought Pac-JMM? 90% of the Filipinos and 90% of the Mexicans.

                      WTF is your point?
