    I agree that there were other factors involved like the ones you bought up
    I mean time wise... the game was like 2 or 4 in the afternoon, PPV started at like 9.

    Even Floyd pre-oscar was doing better numbers vs baldomir..

    If numbers are true, then it looks bad for Canelo's drawing power
    It does look worse since he was part of one of the highest selling PPVs... but he hasn't had that breakthrough fight yet.... that'd be Cotto IMO...until then, they're in building mode

      Now explain to us how this affects PPV numbers.
      Cmon bro, you don't put a PPV on the same weekend as a major sporting event like the world cup

      Same thing with the Superbowl

        For a Cuban marathon runner those are solid numbers.

          Well, hopefully Cotto tells him he needs to get his ass to NY for the fight to happen

            Wtf? What type of unwritten rule is this? If the times do not interfere with each other why wouldn't you? Not like you're paying for BOTH.

              Wasn't there only one game (Brazil vs Netherlands) on the day of Canelo-Lara?

              I don't even think that was during the PPV time...

                That's because a majority of those are American sports and they happen at night.

                  Low numbers but it looks like PPV numbers in general are taking a hit. Mayweather and Pacquiao's last fights couldn't hit a million, Cotto-Martinez relatively bombed and now the supposed next boxing star racked up some mediocre numbers. Guess people are tired of spending money on something you can get for free online (like I do).

                    They need to take Canelo off of PPV.

                      In PPv it's all about the opponent... If your opponent isn't viewed as a big name or a threat then your numbers take a hit..

                      Floyd vs ghost, Ortiz, Maidana, do roughly a million or less.. But give Floyd a marquee opponent like oscar, Shane, cotto, and you will have blockbuster numbers...

                      Ali-Frazier 3 is gonna sell a lot better than Ali-young or lyles..
                      Tyson vs seldon is gonna do less numbers than Tyson-Holyfield..

                      PPv fights is a 2 sided equation, and if both sides are considered marquee then it will do big numbers.. Lara was not marquee
