    I agree, maybe around 600,000. Cotto vs. Mayweather would be a huge one, I predict near/more than 1 million buys.

        Is there an echo in here?

            Depends on how they do promoting.
            If, within the next few months, PBF and zab are marketed welle nough that they become household names, then it'll sellhuge.

            WHat they need to do is emphasize, firstly that these are two of the best p4p fighters in the world right now, and also emphasize their rivalry. Make it almost as though only one can be great, and the outcome will determine who that is - who will be a legend and who will fade away kind of thing. If it's marketed right, i'tll be massive. If not, im guessing no more than 350 thousand buys.

              That's my point.

              Delahoya vs Tito did 1.4 Million buys.

              This won't even come close to that.

              I say 600 000 at the most.

              I think everyone should see this fight, but the mass apeal Tito and Oscar had put it on a higher level.

              As much as I want to see this fight, I don't think it will sell as well with the casual fans.

              More reccently, Winky and Tito did 520 000 buys, but that was because of Tito's insane popularity.

              I would like to see this fight break records, but I think it will do between 400 - 600 K.

              Anyone else want to take a guess at the # of buys?
              dude your ******, this fight will SELL PERIOD. Everyone wants to watch this fight, point blank.

                plus, tito and oscar was huge, because it was a heated rivalry between mexico/puerto rico. These guys have a HUGE rivalry going on as well....this fight should reach AT LEAST 1 million buys.

                  No need to start needlesslly name calling.

                  If anything's ******, it's suggesting it will do a million buys.

                  You want to bet? I say it does less than 700 000

                  Lets see you back up what you think.

                      How much?

                      If it does 700 000 or more, you win.

                      699 999 or less and I win.

                      Name the stake.

                      Think large sums, I'm good for it.
