Dan Rafael - Mayweather/Mcgregor didn't break PPV record

[IronDanHamza]

Come on now. Everybody knows that neither HBO nor Showtime ever officially releases their PPV numbers.

It did 870k.

Stop it now. You clearly are a Mayweather fan boy now.
No way did neither Maidanna fight do 1 million.
Just stop it

HBO and Showtime do releease their numbers, all the time.

Both Maidana fights did just shy of a million unless again you have a source to say otherwise.

but did it have to?

Im out. This is getting ridiculous.
Neither HBO nor Showtime does publicly release the official PPV nimbers.
Insiders in the industry do.


900k & 925k is not the same as 1 million.
Do the math.

Thet actually do release the PPV numbers. You think official PPV mumbers come from industry insiders?

HBO and Showtime have released PPV numbers many times.

And I said just shy of 1 million for Maidana.

I believe HBO stopped officially releasing PPV numbers after Canelo vs Khan, presumably because it flopped. Since then you have to rely on the word of promoters and "insiders"

It really wouldnt surprise me if it didnt.

I think most casuals over here at least were pretty sure it was a mismatch by the time the fight happened and most people i spoke to streamed rather than paying.

Compared to Mayweather vs Pac i think there was just as much talk about the fight, but not as much excitement to actually find out what was going to happen.

Will do ungodly numbers either way though and everyone will have made a tonne of cash.

[Death_Adder]

I didn't break the live gate either.

$55.4 Million

Where are the FloHoes that were shouting $80 million? Morons.

[B Phontain]

yeah i said it wouldnt do aswell as people expected. when push comes to shove a lot of people wouldnt want to shell out to watch the freak show.

Yea cuz just over 4 mill happens all the time

Yea cuz just over 4 mill happens all the time

would be good if you and a couple of the others who responded could actually read. i said it wouldnt do AS WELL as people expected, people expected it to smash the ppv record, it didnt.

[The Big Dunn]

Well I thought it would sell more than Floyd/Manny after the 1st presser. Looks like I was wrong.

That said there were 3 mil+ illegal streams . If those were all purchases the fight would have sold close to 8 million PPV's.
