    Comments Thread For: Dana White: May-Mac 'Biggest Fight Ever,' Will Break All Records

    By Keith Idec - Boxing promoters, television executives and boxers themselves typically shy away from predicting pay-per-view numbers before fights take place. Dana White wasn't at all hesitant to discuss such business Wednesday. UFC's president is certain that the Floyd Mayweather Jr.-Conor McGregor fight will shatter combat sports' record for pay-per-view buys roughly 4.6 million purchases of the disappointing Mayweather-Manny Pacquiao fight in 2015...

          I see it beating the PPV record

          May/Pac didn't have this build up and have the press cover it like they're covering this fight

            Amazed so many will pay $100 to see this fight - that's a lot of cash for a fight that is unlikely to deliver.

            Everyone to their own of course, but was considering how much I WOULD be willing to pay to see it, and even at $1, I'd still give it a pass.

              You wouldn't even pay $1?

                I'm not even surprised, just look at social media outside of this forum. It's full of people who think McGregor wins.

                  I think it will do it by a good margin, I ordered it today in Aus and it cost $43 US got no idea why its a $100 US there, anyway I was chatting with the guy doing it and he was saying he been at MainEvent ticketing for 10 yrs and he has not seen a PPV in this country sell like this is .

                  That's a pretty big statement he made.

                  This fight is hot gossip every where, radio TV cable, I saw an Irish Pub with a sign out the front saying GO McGregor.

                  I think boxing fans don't realize how big this has got with the casuals and media, its a mega event no doubt about it.

                    They got the casuals as they did in may pac but the difference is a lot of people who warnt mma fans or Irish arnt fooled and don't think it's worth the $100. I also never heard so many talking about streaming a ppv. I say it does 2.5-3 mil in the states maybe even a lil over but doesn't hit 4.
