Froch v Groves = 900k PPV buys

[-MEGA-]

That's pretty darn impressive. I thought it lived up to the hype as well.



Now go fetch me a spot of tea...

That is outstanding but really no surprise, it was a huge match up

Not at all the same as doing 900k in the US when your ppv is much cheaper and u aren't competing against numerous other fights on ppv throughout the year. Its Apple and oranges.

Man that's dirt cheap. If only they were priced like that in the states. Cong**** to Froch and Groves though, that's impressive

It is cheap but the downside is you have to listen to Jim Watt.

No...if only your PPV's were priced like ours everyone would be better for it. Less primadona boxers who cheery pick 1 fight a year, they would have to fight more regularly and you could watch more PPV fights.

In that case, 900k is weak. But it did good numbers in the US so I cant bash it.

U.S has a population of 300mill, UK has a population of 60mill. I think it did pretty well, especially because people aren't used to paying for Boxing PPVs here, Boxnation is a one off payment for 6 months I think. Faaaaar cheaper for Boxing heads.

Isn't that what I just said. And what's a "cheery pick?"


P.S. Nigel Benn is a F A G

I think Hatton-Mayweather did 900k here aswell.

Not sure what Tyson-Lewis did but I imagine that did pretty big numbers here too.

That doesn't make sense tho. Ppl pay for what they want. If ppl didnt like the fights, they wouldn't pay for them, esp at the price points they do. It's quite hard to argue anything would change if ppvs were priced differently here. The system only works if ppl want it.

Damn, I wish our ppv were 16.95 I would have bought all of them so far this year. After PAC and the mayweather fight I didn't buy cotto Martinez so I could get canelo Lara. (See how that works) cheaper would be better.
