Yahoo.com predicting Manny Pacquiao Vs Rios ppv failure?

[Hougigo]

Gotcha, so its on in the middle of the day in China. Sounds like they're still giving precedence to the US market.

Yea, I mean it's in PPV in China too, but ony 5 bucks compared to the U.S's 60-ish pricetag.
I don't think Arum will give up on the U.S market yet unless his Macau experiment pays off

PPV #'s will def take a plunge with it being outside of the US

I don't think it's a PPV in China, not yet

Arum has talked abut this specifically. He said that PPVs done outside the US usually do about half of what they normally do. The revenue is made up by the lower taxes and the high site fee Macau will pay to host the fight. In another examples like Ali-Foreman, goverment subsidies made up for it.

Just a prediction, I'll wait after the fight is done.

He might well do less, isn't it on in the morning in the US? However, they're aiming for the Chinese market.

I don't think the Chinese do PPV isn't it free to air over there , its like Garcia said " the Chinese don't know sht about boxing they just watch it "

In a way I hope it bombs , 2 losers both coming of losses , one a B grade being forced up to a weight he has never been before and never been with a Sth paw before , and Roach publicly saying " we chose Rios to make Manny look good " that's a blatant cherry pick Freddie !!

Arum needs to be shown that overall boxing fans are not interested in all these dodgy deals to make Manny look good with a bum , in the very least he should be fighting Alvarez or a wining WW , Rios is served on a plate and boxing knows it .
