HBO says Rios-Pacquioa does 475,000 ppv buys

Am glad you as a Pacfan are not willing to degrade yourself to back up a idiotic post below.


Bwhahahah.......

I just dont understand that logic. If you're going to order and watch it at your home, friends home, bar, etc....why the F should it matter where the bout is being held at? Better yet, what would make someone NOT order it due to where its being staged?

You just have to take it from Dana White, the expert in PPV sales. UFC events held abroad, according to him, gets lesser PPV sales than the ones held at home. I don't know why.

Floyd v Guerrero did 700K, maybe less.
Considering it's held on Cinco de Mayo,
Supported with Mexican superstars
Promoted heavily in the US....

Can't wait for his next PPV... let's see.

Mayweather vs Guerrero did over 800k.

Mayweather vs Guerrero did over 800k.

Smh its a shame when guys like that have to make up numbers to make themselves feel better.

Tell that to Fat Dan.

So assuming your figure is correct, you're confirming that
Schaefer is a liar. He announced that it did more than one million,
which is a figure they'll only break even.

Fat Dan said 870k....so I'm pretty sure you don't have to tell him that.

There's less promotion. With a US fight, the fighters go to the major cities to promote the fight which which didn't happen this time.

It's impossible to know what effect it had without having the same card I the US to compare it to.

[Dr Rumack]

Sometimes it's crazy to think just how wild a career Pacquiao has had for a former flyweight from the Philippines. For any Asian fighter to become a PPV star in the US, and especially for a little guy to do it is pretty astonishing in itself.

Now thats a flop hehehe! Considering all that. Dang that stinks man.

While Pac's profit for the rips fight fighting an unlnown comes from..

The purse Pac and Arum is getting comes from 5 sources. That's why.

1 source Macau who wanted the fight there. A billionaire paid Arum and PAc so they can host the fight. Chaching!

2nd source China - that country is bigger than USA full of people to make a profit. Chaching!

3rd source HBO USA - 470k buys chaching!

4th source the other countries - Britain, europe,asia , latin america, north america etc etc.

5th - Phillipines alone gives a lions share of the PPV for PAc. around 2million dollars

Pac's earnings is dynamic while Floyd's static in Las Vegas.
