Will Pac/Rios outsell May/Guerrero in PPV?

[DoktorSleepless]

No, the fight is like 9 hours early and they said PPVs will be cut by about half because of the time difference

The fight will take place early in Macau, not in the US. It'll air at a regular time in the US. Time difference won't be an issue.

Probably not, but this fight is 100x more interesting IMO. Rios is limited like The ghost but the one thing he has which I haven't saw in many recent Floyd fights, is the ability to put PAC out with one punch, especially with the clash of styles.


Both men will bring it and it should be a war! Ill definitely be watching. Does anyone know what the undercard to this fight is?


I agree with someone on page 1...... A Provodnikov- abregu or Alvardo-Provodnikov fight on the undercard would be explosive

[Infamous]

we'll never know because in this day and age, the real ppv numbers never come out


they'll 'tally' the numbers until people forget about them

Yeah, did they ever release they Mayweather #s?

Pac vs Rios does better than May vs the Ghost, IMO... The promotion should be better too... It's the return of "The fighter of the decade" or whatever that reporter says...

9 hours early?
I don't know about you, but it's usually on at 11-12 in the evening... not 8-9 in the morning

No even do it's on the same time in the US if the event it's in another country usually the shows don't do that well + let's be honest here pacman is my favorite fighter and the rios fight is weaker than the floyd-guerero fight..at least guerero was the nr 1 contender and all that..

they're still tallying up the totals for Floyd-Ortiz


****ing ppv numbers...people so afraid to show the truth...its like go on...tell me im not the only idiot that watched Floyd-Guerrero

Pretty sure the PPV will be on at the usual time in the US, which means the fight will be 9am Sunday morning in China. Won't sell anywhere close to Mayweathers numbers even if it was in American 400k-500k would be my guess.

siad it another thread if I bought tix to a fight and had to be dressed and fight ready by 8AM just so another country can boost the PPV numbers I would be pissed. Just have it in the country if that's the case.

I for one am from the west coast in the US and would buy it at 9AM. Mimosas or micheladas and bacon. Im in.

I think we all know the numbers were abysmal. The fight had no hype, little promotion, and nobody had any interest in the matchup from the getgo.

Combine that with Gurrero's irritating jesus freak personality, and we all know that the even was a flop.

Id be surprised if it broached 1mill buys.

[Jloro]

Pac-Rios is a much better match up than Floyd Guerrer so I don't know what some of you guys are talking about.
IT has potential to outsell them. I would actually buy this one if it has a good undercard

[AgainstTheRopes]

It wont do 500,000 after Canelo/Floyd and Marquez vs Bradley in the two months preceding it.
