ITV Box Office numbers

But... even if this matched Mayweather-Pacquiao like that tweet suggests, it would still be less than 15% of the revenue that fight did, which is really what it's about.

Canelo doing 300,000 vs Smith at $65 is still 60% more revenue than this fight doing 1M buys

says a random guy who joined a couple days ago...

[Dr Rumack]

People are saying around 80k.

Honestly though, I played along a bit but I doubt it's done 1 million plus buys. I literally havent had anyone in my group of friends talk about it or bother to watch it and a lot of them are the casual sports fan types who would normally fall for this crap.

Having said that, I know its a pretty small sample size but this fight never generated any buzz at all over here.

Yep ive got a few mates who will ask me about boxing for the big events. Normally a good barometer for how well a fight will do with casuals.

No one asked me about it fight week or night. One guy messaged me about the Price fight the next day.

Highly doubt this was a success.

Fair play if it was, but i doubt it.

No, Eubank Sr runs that one

80k wouldn't be too bad tbh....about 75k more than i'd have expected.

[Boxtime]

I have just spoken to Niall Sloane, Director of ITV sport. He said that the fight had sold 115k buys @6pm before the fight, and the final numbers will be ready by Tuesday.

This is bad news for Sky or a load of BS.

Say whatever you want by Eubank, he is a exciting boxer to watch, he puts on a show, almost throwback like the days of Naz, Eubank Snr, Benn etc...

I would love to see Eubank vs Degale, but i dont think Degale would fancy it
