$5-$6 dollar PPV charge in China for Pac/Rios

Of those 29 million how many of them do you think will buy the fight? Being generous and saying half, the fight would make about 70 millions, but I believe that is being overly generous.

I think about half a percent is a very high expectation... that being said... that's still a lot (6.7 million people).
That's still about 40 million dollars.....Even half of that is still a good number IMO.
China's still an unknown market.
Zhou supposedly did 300M views.... so I think half a percent isn't that bad to hope for

It's not just those 2%, if it's the thing to do the remaining 98% can pool their monies, have PPV parties on Chinese Independence Day. It adds up.

Zhou Shming is so garbage...he is a gatekeeper/name guy at best. Look at Zab Judah, he had the quickest hands the boxing world had ever seen and he didn't even pan out.

We all know he's crap... but the Chinese like him.
They went crazy for him flopping his hands and moving.
If it sells, it sells

Most of them make 5$ a week st some sweatshop or iPhone factory, stop thinking they are all driving ferrari's

Doesn't like 98% of China live on $2 a day more or less while the other 2% drives around in sports cars? Asking China for two and a half day's work seems quite apt for Arum.

Chinas middle class is roughly the same number of people as there are in the United States. Period.

So no, youre a bit off with that one.

China's population in china is 1.344

half of one percent of the population is still a lot of money
even half of that isn't bad for a PPV like boxing event in China

Both of those are fantasy.

China's middle class has been rapidly expanding for the past 30 years. Roughly 25% is firmly in the Chinese middle class.

Again, more than the entire population of the United States. A little under three times the size of Mexico's entire population.

Dismiss China's buying power at your own risk. I may not like him but clearly Arum is onto gold here.

America hardly has a middle class anymore. Do the citizens of China now have expendable income? Yep. Is Arum all over that already? Yep.
