How many PPV's does it take to make Floyd-Maidana a success?

[BattlingNelson]

So?

How many needs to buy this fight to make it a success on your opinion?

[-MAKAVELLI-]

i read that with floyd's guarantee, Showtime needs to hit 1.5mil to make it a success

[WilkinsOlajuwon]

whatever amount increases profit from the avg of the last 2-3 fights.

[BOXEO _]

Showtime needs a million and a half buys for it to be a success.


Me personally, i'd say 900k buys.

[Da Machine]

IMO? I'll answer that way as i can read unlike others.

A millions buys would be a huge success. 8-900k would not be hugely disappointing IMO.

Isn't Mayweather guarantee at least $30 million for every fight? Doubt Showtime would sign a contract that would need to sell 1.5 million PPVs every fight to make money. Sounds ******ed just thinking they would.

[BattlingNelson]

This fight is probably comparable to the Guerrerro fight. How much did that make and how much did Oac do against Bradley?

this is just an estimate but live gate + 1 mil(or close to it) ppv's + movies + sponsors = easily close to 100 mil or more that will be generated.....no to mention they didn't do that much promo for this fight compared to a canelo fight. i don't think showtime will be complaining.

1.5 Million.

[Francis M.]

Floyd's already successful. he don't need the #'s since his money is guaranteed. Chino on the other hand needs the #'s since his guarantee is 1.5 mil.
