Comments Thread For: Loeffler: Golovkin-Lemieux Virtually Sold Out

I doubt if this fight will sell more than 50,000 PPVs. I expect Loeffler to refuse to release the numbers, but declare it a huge success. He will then feed Fat Dan Rafael a phony number of 250,000 buys. Fat Dan will run the number and claim that the numbers came from one of his reliable sources.

Well, I do not think Mayweather is fighting for 2 mil.$. If you have a fighter who fights 30+ mil $ per fight you need at least 700K ppv orders just to cover Mayweather demands. Myaweather guaranteed fee was 32 mil, Berto 4m.

That was the reason they needed 1M+ to earn some money.

It is not hypocritical, just basic knowledge of business. If you invest more money than you are earning, than it is a FLOP. (Not for May and Berto to be clear)

That concept is too complicated for him.

Stop. It will sell 50k buys before the day of the fight alone. My guess is 300k but it could be anywhere from 200 to 350. Golovkin is one of the most popular fighters in the world now. deal with it.

last week 500K was a flop ppv # for sales when pac was selling 275k it was a great #, now 150k is a great #, lol, you just cant make this shlt up, so hypocritical, lol

It isn't hypocritical. Its just that you don't seem to understand that a main event with purses close to 40M should probably sell alot more than a main event with purses close to 5M.

i didnt just trying think of a realistic number in my head that would be considered a success. i was thinking little less then pac algeiri. the one thing it has going for it is its little cheaper then normal and there is a demand for action fights. who knows tho i was thinking 350 have u heard it might be more? the more the better i hope its up in the 600k range just not sure if thats realistic

The number they threw up was 250k, so that must be their break even with little profit number.

Alright, so it sounds like the numbers are phony to you and they have yet to come out
