    Funny how most of you guys are trying to say how good these numbers are.

    When Arum himself is disappointed in the numbers.
    Anything to protect Pacquiao I guesd

      How is that your conclusion? Hate to disappoint lil Hitler but no I'm not. Is every Pacquiao fan Filipino? In your world, apparently they are lol.

        Little under 900k.

        If anything, it shows there's a difference between China and here.

        Bradley was coming off the Marquez PPV win and was better known than the first time out

          IMO Pacquaio's not as big of a draw because he was put to sleep. You can blame these numbers on Bradley, but the fact is the first Bradley fight sold 890K, since then Bradley engaged in the FOTY and a PPV win over Marquez (Pacquiao's conqueror). Why does this fight do over 100K less than the first one? It has to be Marquez's destruction of Pacquaio.

            Compared to Pacs numbers in the past they are bad. Compared to anyone not named Mayweather they are good.

              If Bob is openly admitting that he is disappointed in the numbers then it says a lot.

                Arum is a lawyer and a promoter (salesman). You can't believe a word he says but when he says he made money on it, you can bet he is happy about his financial reaping from the fight. Otherwise, he would avoid commenting on the financial outcome at all.

                      It was a great fight with two top P4P guys swinging for the fences

                      800k vs Bradley is a huge success.

                      I think Bradley vs JMM did like 350k buys
                      ya true but it sounds like arum is going to screw pac. he wouldn answer the question when asked if pac would get more then the 6 million he got before the fight since the buys were so low. If he tries to give pac 6 million thats bs a lot of people tune in to see pac lose but its still pac they paying to see
