I would bet anything that gbp inflated the numbers for the khan and smith fights. the cotto fight failed to break 1 million buys that's a fact.

Fans are tired of paying $70+ for over-hyped fights and weak undercards. Not to mention people are streaming fights for free on the web, or the next day on Youtube. Mayweather destroyed the PPV model with boring fights. Fans are leary about paying out good money to watch bad fights. Imagine if Thurman/Garcia was a PPV event? Talk about a flop.
PPVs will need to be built up through ethnic rivalries and more compelling match ups of fighters who are in their prime. Not fighters feasting on foes who are battle-worn, old, or over-hyped.

Originally posted by JoeMan View PostThere's virtually no way anyone outside the business could find out what the exact numbers are. Anyone can pretty much declare any number that comes out of his ass without naming any source.
The IRS should step in and tax the corresponding number they declare in the media. The more they declare, the more they're heavily taxed.
As it is, no one is penalized for declaring fake inflated numbers, which are deceptively used when negotiating their next fights.

I think it does 750k buys with mostly mexicans/latinos buying it, Canelo still hasn't learned English and that hurts him big time, if he spoke English and gave an effort like Pacquiao who has horrible English it will endear him to the Americans plus he looks white so a lot of those rednecks will love him more.
