great numbers

You should let Maxi know that GGG came short to Martinez vs JCC PPV.

Nelo vs JCC about 1 million PPV, so Lil's selling power was only 300K. But we all know Nelo sold 1203,000 PPV and GGG sold 97,000

LA Times: Alvarez-Golovkin fight generated 1.3 million pay-per-view buys

e Canelo Alvarez-Gennady Golovkin middleweight title fight produced 1.3 million pay-per-view buys, the best showing between two world champion boxers since Floyd Mayweather’s record-setting 2015 triumph over Manny Pacquiao.

The figure was given to the Los Angeles Times by an individual intimately familiar with sales, but unauthorized to speak publicly on the matter. HBO televised the bout.

The sales are the best yet for Golovkin. While Golovkin, 35, didn’t exceed 200,000 buys in either of his two prior pay-per-views, Alvarez’s loss to Mayweather in 2013 surpassed 2 million buys. Alvarez generated 1 million buys in May while defeating Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. by unanimous decision, and had 900,000 buys in his November 2015 triumph over four-division champion Miguel Cotto.

A Golden Boy Promotions executive declined to comment on the sales figure, and Golovkin promoter Tom Loeffler was not immediately available for comment.

what happened to the 2 million buys?

what happened to the 2 million buys?

Like the judges, turns out 1/3 didnt watch it at all

[Sp0rty Cr@ig]

Sounds more likely than the highly unlikely 2 milli figure

Great news

It would have done twice as much if it weren't for the May-McGregor farce.

How? just slighly over 1 million is 1.1 million tops... everyone could see that the 2M number was not real. Glaser always does the same.
