Comments Thread For: Schaefer: Mayweather PPV Will Do Over 1 Million Buys

[rogdogx]

shots fired. I will say this. This fight had no buzz. None at all and then it blew up. There were a million tix left for this fight just 2 days before. In those last 2 days they were selling like hotcakes. Stubhub had like 1400 tix left and prices went all the way down to 165 dollars. Then next thing you knew the numbers were dropping like the stock market and guys started doubling the price on the tix again. The building was full that night.

Not only that but literally everyone I talked to after the fight told me about how boring it was. Thats another story for another day but the point is they watched the fight. It was random people who werent big boxing fans. I do think there was a last second rush that couldve drastically changed the numbers on this fight

Doesn't it seem that the big fights have not had any buzz lately until the last couple days? It felt that way with the Pac-Marquez fight last December also.

no reporter is going to reveal their sources. c'mon man.

Why didn`t HBO back up Fat Dan`s claims?

Unless Floyd fights Canelo his next PPV will bomb.. All I kept hearing at work from anyone who saw the fight was that it was a $70 sparring session. Schaefer needs to stfu already, his b*tchy little tantrums are getting old.

thats my point though. I heard that alot too but that also means alot of people did end up watching it

It matters because these threads get 100s of replies. People arguing left and right about **** they know nothing about. Can we find out facts before we start spewing bull**** left and right.

I mean the posters themselves. Why do they care so much about the PPV numbers people do? What purpose do they have to argue so much about this?

Seriously, just stop already. Wait for the numbers to be announced before you argue so damn much, so you have something to actually argue about.

Schaefer, no one cares about your ABC elementary school math tutor session. regardless of what you say, we fans know from our own personal talks with people that we know that far less people said they watched this Floyd fight in contrast to other Floyd fights. We are but a small sample size but our data extrapolated out, would constitute a close approximation to the entire population.

Anyone with half a brain knows that this fight didn't do traditional "Mayweather" numbers.

Sure only multiple threads on the fight everyday leading up to it. No buzz at all.

Anything negative said about Mayweather the haters quickly take it and run with it like a chicken with its head recently cut off.And the gullible people who aren`t Floyd haters also feed into it.
