Will Pac/Rios outsell May/Guerrero in PPV?

[-MAKAVELLI-]

Ohhhhh so it will be 11am sunday in Macau, but regular saturday fight time in the US

you got it...over here, you're asking for a disaster by having an even that early...even the NFL, which is king, doesn't start til 12:30pm


but i'm sure they wont have a problem getting that arena filled up

[thuggery]

Probably not due to the timezone.

But of course there will be overseas money on top of PPV sales.

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

If it turns out to be a war as you predict, that will simply prove that Pac is not and never was in Mayweather's league. If a B-class fighter like Rios can defeat him, then he never stood a chance against Floyd.

If Floyd said he was fighting Rios in his next fight, this board would blow up with hatred and claims of cherrypicking. But Pac/Rios is a good fight?

Obviously, PPV will not be the main source of earnings for this fight. Tapping the China market is a novel idea in boxing. Don't know why it's novel when there are more than one billion Chinese on earth.

Well there's over a billion people in China, and you know Chinese people are a proud group of people and they WILL back up and support their fellow chinese man Pac, so I expect ALOT of buys

China doesn't have ppv. This fight will probably only be on ppv in the US and Canada.

[Check_hooks]

This fight will shatter floyd-guerrero.

Mexicans will still buy this fight cuz Pac is huge in there community and Rios is like a mini Marg.

Im expecting this to be the most watched boxing event of all time

yes and no. yes because of the hundreds of million potential buyers.... No because how much of them can actually buy?

[brickcityboxing]

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.

How do those two sentences even end up in the same post ? 900k is a huge success for any other fighter on the planet not named Mayweather or pacquiao

[edwinteamDSG]

I dont think so. This fight is pointless both are coming from a big loss and theres no titles on the line and then is on the other side of the world! Gtfo let bob arum see that **** by himself! Loool

Are you currently employed by top rank, to say things like that?! Lol
