      They made money on this fight overall, it wasn't a loss, but those numbers are not a good sign.

        Compared to the regular promoting for a Pac fight, this fight paled in comparison. Shorter 24/7, no Jimmy Kimmel spot and most of the media taking place overseas.

          This fight should still be considered a huge success

          American PPV was just one way of generating income, it was basically icing on the cake.

          Just wait till they release how many people watched the event. It will easily be the most watched boxing event in history.

            Arum's plan in the making is Singapore. He's obviously profiting mega millions of money from these overseas fights. Hehe...

Either way, it does sound like a bit of a flop and I think it flopped over in China as well because Bob said Manny's next fight would be back in the U.S. soon after the Pac/Rios fight ended.

              Bradley vs. Pac will probably do about the same or maybe as much as 600,000 so this is why they are clamoring for a Floyd fight. There is nobody but Floyd and possibly Marquez left for Manny and Bob knows this and he also knows Marquez is scared shidtless to risk another fight with Manny.
              It was actually $60 bucks or so in china, which is equivalent to a like over $5 US.

                  Apparently they ended up showing it for free.

                    The Bradley fight did about 700,000 so this is not that big of a surprise 500,000 or over is pretty good considering his opponent and he was coming off of 2 losses.
