600-800K
Numbers I say that is the real range, but still very good especially at the top end.

No way this joke of a ppv does anywhere near a million buys. It needs an undercard. Any undercard. Any undercard other than the one it has now.

Originally posted by hitking View PostI think it does a million easy. 375k was very good for Bradley-JMM. After the third JMM fight, pac had lost his "threat to Floyd" fanbase. But now, he's managed to convince many of those folks "he's back" after the Rios fight. And I think the numbers will reflect that.

Originally posted by JoeMan View PostThe rivals are amateurs. GBP/SHO's new VP, they're being suckered by the Greedy Team. They spend gargantuan amounts of money on promotion, undercards, not to mention Money Mayweather's $40 million guarantee. Man, who would make a profit with that huge amount of spending? That's equivalent to SHO's two year budget. No wonder most of GBP/Haymon fighters have been dormant. They've spent all their money on making Floyd look good on paper. They're getting crumbs from the Greedy Team.
They have no money for Star vs Star types of fights. They can only afford Star vs Bum types... Alexander has been calling out Guerrero, who people say ducked Thurman. In reality, they can't afford such fights.
The network doesn't pay for priomotion and marketing of a PPV. The promoter does.
And everyone knows Floyd doesn't get $40m for every fight.
If SHO was having money problems, they wouldn't be outbidding HBO for fighters like Stevenson.

I'm a SHO subscriber. Fights are getting rare. Mayweather is on PPV not Showtime. GBP got tens of fighters, around 90, yet where are they? Their stars now fight once a year. You give them bums they'll fight maybe five times a year. So expect to see less and less Star vs Star types of fight from GBP. They have no money.
