    UK Fans: How Many PPV Buys Does Wilder vs Fury in Vegas Do?

    So lets say this fight does indeed happen in November or December in Vegas, what kind of numbers will it do in the UK? Obviously the fight will be in the early morning, but can it get to 200k or that number is too high? Joshua fighting that early in the morning would still get close to, if not surpass the million mark, but his stardom is on another level.

    Tell me what you guys think.

    That's about right. I think Canelo-Golovkin did 150-250k if I remember correctly and this will do about the same.

      Just trying to see what kind of revenue this fight can generate. So lets say it does 300k in the states (Which is questionable), and does 200k in the UK, then it will generate:

      US PPV: 300,000 *75 = 22,500,000. After cable distributors share take half, 11,250,000 is generated.

      UK PPV: 200,000 *26 = 5,200,000. I'm guessing in the UK half of it will go to Sky Box Office or whoever puts it on PPV? If so, you get 2,600,000.

      And I believe you can get the live gate to 5-7 million? Will Fury bring in a crowd? Calzaghe/Hopkins had a live gate of over $11 million. So maybe I am being in the safe side, but lets go with that amount.

      Plus lets say $1.5 million in international sales.

      So Wilder/Fury can generate around 20+ million when all is said and done. I'm guessing Wilder will get the bigger split here, something like 60/40?

          Remember, GGG/Canelo took place at like 4 or 5 am in the morning. Whyte/Parker took place at 11 PM. And obviously Whyte is a Brit while Canelo nor Canelo are.

            With less people having BT over here than SKY, the fight promos, or special build up shows maybe won't reach a wider audience as usual. Could maybe be a factor.

              How does that work? BT Sports does its own PPVs now right? So this wouldn't be on Sky Box Office like Fury vs Klitschko?

              Wilder as a foreigner has a name in the UK by being linked to Joshua, and Fury is what the second biggest name in the country behind Joshua? Is that accurate?

                who cares what it generates? 100k or 1 million

                the undefeated heavyweight that ended the 10 yr reign of wldamir klitschko vs the undefeated heavyweight who has stopped every man he has faced.


                Thats all that matters

                    Because I'm trying to see the type of revenue this fight can generate and the type of purses both fighters will be making.
