Cotto Vs. Mayweather: PPV Numbers...

[TOBYLEE1]

This fight had more Buzz than May/Mosley or Pac/Marqez 3.

My guess is around 1.6 or 1.7

A friend in the cable industry (she runs VoD) told me that it substantially outsold Ortiz, but was well short of the 2 million that Schaefer said.

She said that it looks to be about 1.45 to 1.6 million. In that range.

She extrapolated based on the sales for her cable system's (Xfinity) history. But it could be higher or lower if other cable systems were higher of lower (for example, Northeast may be higher buyrate becasue of more Puerto Ricans)

1.5 is probably a pretty good center cut. You can assume 1.4 mill as the LOW side, but it may overperform to 1.7 million

No joke, no BS... believe it or disregard it at your discretion.

Guessing 1.5-1.6

[waxfondler]

i think it did well, first major PPV of the year. star-studded too.

i wouldnt be surprised if it hits 1.4-1.8mil.... i would be pleasantly surprised if it reached 2...

[BennyST]

It won't reach 2. Even Pac/Mai would probably only do 2, maybe a bit over if they promote right. Boxing just isn't a big enough concern in mainstream sports anymore for a PPV, even with major stars, to reach much above 1.5.

Neither of these guys are Tyson's, Ali's, Leonard's etc. Boxing has well and truly lost those days. I think the top will be 1.6...maybe 7.

I will be very happy to be proven wrong though.

[Terrel]

1.4-1.6

Can't see it being more.

[Optimistic]

Wont reach 2 mill imo.

Id say 1.6 at the most.

[bojangles1987]

2 buys......

[minasyan]

only time we will see 2mil is if mayweather and pac come up against each other

i think it will be around 1.45mil which is amazing

[boricuajr23]

1.6-1.8 is my guess.
