    I guess that's why we don't know what the numbers actually are. And I believe the 700K originated from a Manila newspaper--yeah, I guess that's the same thing as a fat ****** spreading rumours from his parents basement (wtf?).

      why the hell would that even be accepted if pretty much most major media outlets are saying it reached at least 900k.

      Based on the early indications, Top Rank's CEO Bob Arum believes the June 9th HBO pay-per-view between Manny Pacquiao and Timothy Bradley will generate more than 900,000 buys. The controversial fight generated a live gate of $8,963,180 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas - with 13,229 tickets sold. There were 2,070 unsold tickets and 925 comps given out. There was also an additional gate of $249,000 via closed circuit from 4,980 tickets sold.

        Because none of that is official either. So it's really no different. Wouldn't be the first time a member of the media was wrong.

            I think it will do better than the last 3. this is the most significant and will be the most exciting. Boxing fans will for sure tune in, I don't know about the casual but I think they are doing an excellent job of marketing. The time square thing was genius.

                Don't matter because Arum never officially release the numbers for Pacquiao PPV's anyway...He just releases the number he wants so he is going to say this fight did over 1 Million even if it doesn't!

                      1.2 is a good estimate, although it doesn't need to reach that high to be a successful event, anything over 1.2 would be outstanding and is certainly possible.
