Will Pac/Rios outsell May/Guerrero in PPV?

[RVABoxer]

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

Your'e an idiot. Pacquiao is Filipino which is not Chinese. I don't know how popular Pacquiao is there but when I think of China I don't think of a big boxing fan base however I don't have any facts to really base it off of. But I just have a feeling it may not do as well I don't know why maybe it's because we haven't heard much from Pacquiao since the KO I'd still like to see it though not sure if I will pay though

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

The real PPV numbers do come out. The golden rule has always been that numbers should be announced by either HBO or Showtime. Showtime said Ghost vs May did more than 1 million. That's all that matters. That's the way it's always been. Rafael is not an official source.

arum is no old fool not to have considered the concerns raised on this thread....

time difference, fight location, etc., etc....

as i have put in one of my previous posts, the main event is not the sole basis of ppvs or gate attendance being a success....

a great undercard also goes a long way...

i think arum is also lining up a popular chinese fighter in the undercard

No. They'll be lucky to get 700-800K buys with the time and everything.

I believe it when I hear how much revenue the fight made, which Golden Boy has always released until the Guerrero fight. They can't lie about the revenue.

[MRBOOMER]

Flat out no...especially with the fight being held overseas and not in the .u.S.
The promotion wont be as much seen in U.S. but have seen that Hennesy Pacuiao commercial more recently since hes ben KO'd lol

Alo, Manny has nver out sold Maywether PPV on thir biggest ones. Manny always needs that good bside attraction like cotto-marquez, but doesnt o well when its just his name Clottey/Bradley

He did what like 900.000 vs Clottey ? That's not bad against a guy with absolutely no name
