    Not 2 days, and that's yahoo sports guessing nothing from the promoter until 10 days. And you proved my point they guess on Thursday after a sat ppv because that's when satellite figures come in then they extrapolate them to guess what cable numbers which come like 7-10 later will be. So how the phuk dana know the numbers 2 days before satellite figures come in which they use to guess the figures?

    Even before sales via cable companies are tabulated, the bout has already sold 2.25 million pay-per-views, which makes it the second-best selling fight ever with much more to come.


    2 days.

    They had the numbers from the companies.


    If the estimate is that high it's done huge numbers. Why does that make you mad?

      I thought it out did pac/may fight but the wild card now is the phuk up they had selling all these ppvs they couldn't deliver and the insane amount they are being forced to refund. That will take a huge chunk out the number and that alone will go on for weeks as customers trickle in to claim refunds.

        The fight was may 2nd dumb azzz not may 5th. May 7 was the Thurs after the fight. Lord now I know what level re tard I'm dealing with. You posted a link that totally goes against your own argument and dont know how to count lol

        Yahoo sports released their own estimate which ended up being wrong by the way on thursday so how dana who wasn't the promoter got estimates before the Thurs satellite numbers are released?

          Are they really refunding it? I thought if it plays for one minute you are ***ed and have to pay

            Matters little. They had them days after not weeks.

            Why does it make you mad though, that the estimate is so big?

              Why can't you accept that it's just a guess? They guessed that ggg did 300k and it turned out to be only 97k.
              You are the one that seems upset that people have a mind of their own and don't blindly agree with those numbers

                You harp and find a link to prove your point but the link proves the opposite and shows you how impossible it is to have any estimate by tues and it matters little? You a clown lol

                The promoters first estimate came 10 days after the fight, yahoo on their own took a guess based on satellite figures on thurs after the fight. Dana not the promoter and clearly hasn't seen any satellite numbers because they don't come out for another 2 days.

                  I'll accept it's an estimate by someone in the know. He's not just pulling numbers out of the sky.

                    The link was to prove your "10 days" wrong and it did. So yes it matters little. It also proves they have numbers to base estimates on days after the PPV, not weeks like you claim.

                    Coming in here thinking you're "Mr Know It All"

                      So when the number is a lot lower you will make a thread admitting you were wrong?
