    As a boxing fan, I believe the numbers provided by official sources, not rumors and innuendo. Showtime, the official source, said the fight sold over 1 million PPVs. HBO, the offical source, said the Mayweather/Cotto fight sold 1.5 million, the Mayweather/Ortiz fight sold 1.2 million and the Mayweather/Mosley fight sold 1.4 million..

    On the other hand, we have received no numbers from official sources on any of Pacquaio's last four fights, but idiots like you and Dan Rafael believe everything Lying Bob Arum (a biased unofficial source) tells you without question and quote the numbers as if they are proven facts.


    To paraphrase a great quote, 'you don't have to be ****** to post on the Boxing Scene message board, but most of the people who post on the Boxing Scene message board are ******.'
    So basically you trust the numbers of the vendor who has a vested interest in saying their event did better than it actually did. You couldnt make this crap up.

      Who was the main source for talking numbers for Showtime in the past? Like for some of Tyson's and the Manny vs Mosley bout?

        I surmise the mother who birthed you has been tellin herself the very same thing for many decades.

        so showtime is makin up numbers because the fake numbers which will get them more money, as opposed to if they did under a million and lost money, right?

        if the fight does 870k buys, Showtime loses money, so in an effort to make money, Showtime says it did over a million buys.

        you cant make YOU up...

          Fat Dan is now a liar. LOL. I could provide links where Floyd fanboys
          appeared satisfied with Fat Dan's numbers. He's a moron when fanboys
          don't like the numbers.

          I mean, come on, why is this such huge deal to fanboys? It happens.
          You fight a guy with six fans you don't expect big numbers.

          Simple as that.

            this. who cares how many buys the fight did. the fighters got paid and everyone made their money. why are numbers important to a few idiots on a message board?

              There is less of chance that the vendor is lying than there is that the fighter's promoter (who has a vested interest) is lying. You had no problem believing Bob Arum's numbers about Pacquaio's fights, but you question Showtime's numbers about Mayweather's fights. It is obvious that, no matter what the truth is, you and others will continue to believe whatever you choose to believe.

                Please show me a link where I appeared satisfied with Fat Dan's numbers because I have never given any credence to anything Fat Dan has said unless it was confirmed by an official source.

                Floyd fans are not going into fits of rage over the numbers and creating daily threads about them. Haters like you are.

                  This is a dumb ass thread...

                  How long have some of you so called "hardcore" boxing fans have been posting on this site? If you had any common scenes you should know official PPV numbers take about a month before there released. This is the same ****ing thread year after year everytime Mayweather fights, but is always frivolous in nature. Remember the Ortiz fight was suppose to only do 850K, but what happen....


                  Oct 28th 2011

                  LAS VEGAS (October 28). Floyd Mayweather puts more meaning to his ring name "Money" every time he fights. With early pay-per-view numbers counted and confirmed, the pugilist's recent STARPOWER fight against Victor Ortiz generated buys from 1.25 million homes with a value of $78,440,000 dollars in pay-per-view revenue. These numbers make the event the second highest grossing non-heavyweight pay-per-view event of all time.


                  Stop being *****es, and go fight another fighter to suck off until Floyd fights and beats him like say Alverez.

                    870 is the most recent number.

                    It definitely did NOT do over 1 million like FH and Schaefer reported. If it was over 1 mil we would have heard about it by now.

                      well you have heard about it doing over 1 mil but you disregard the source that says it did.
