Over/Under 97k buys this weekend for Wilder-Fury?

$75
No buzz
Casuals never heard of either of these dudes.
Gonna be a tough sell.
This fight should have been about $39.99

IMO it possibly should do around 100,000-150,000 buys.

AJ isn't a PPV star here in the US. Can't compare UK PPV to US PPV. They will put any good fight on PPV in the UK while they're pretty much irrelevant in the US. 2 different markets, you think people would buy a Whyte/Parker PPV here? That fight wasn't even big enough for a network to pick it up.

The UK boom has only come about because of the AJ's has been built as a fighter. Yes AJ is a PPV star in his own country and well known by the majority,Wilder isn't anywhere.

People are constantly saying that the US is the home of HW boxing and more lucrative due to the population and history etc. Wilders team have failed to tap into this if true.

One of the key difference between the two PPV's is price, if you're a casual that doesn't care or know much about boxing and you hear about a potentially good fight you're gonna be way more inclined to by the PPV for £20/$23 instead of $75 especially if you're just gonna watch it alone. I think this is how the UK can get away with more as well.

Price might different, however, we don't pay a PPV price to watch fights that are on PPV in the UK. All your PPV fights are pretty much shown in the US on regular cable channels.

Literally any decent/good fight gets shown on PPV in the UK. The price point difference becomes moot when they put on 10-11 PPV shows a year.

If people are purchasing SKY just for boxing, then there is no point for that. Just order the PPV shows on the fights that interest you. Now, I know SKY also has the EPL and that is probably the main reason to purchase it. BT Sports starting to do the same now as well right?

I have no idea what Sky or BT does, I live in the US. All I know that they put on any decent fight on UK PPV while those same fights are usually shown on regular cable tv in the US. Has there ever been a UK PPV that was also a US PPV? Probably not.

I say it will be between 200-350k buys. That said, it is priced too high @ $74.95 in HD

They TRIED to promote this, but people have no idea who Wilder or Fury is.. Tyson name from MIKE is the most popular thing people hear when they hear this fight lol

This would be huge in the UK where they actually care about boxing

What do you mean by the last part? Like Mayweather/Hatton? That was a US PPV as well as UK PPV along with some other Lewis fights and Mayweather/Pac or Mayweather/McGregor etc. There hasn't been a UK PPV shown in the afternoon in America as a US PPV though...Or not any that I can remember. Is that what you were referring to?

I'm actually trying to think of the last PPV I did NOT purchase lol.

One of the 30k that purchased Crawford vs Postol. Three PPVs in four months coming up, already have purchased Wilder/Fury, will purchase Spence/Garcia and who am I kidding, I will also be getting Pacquiao/Broner Ha.

oh, the last PPV I got was GGG/Canelo 2. I just didn't buy Floyd's fights after he returned from retirement other than a couple (Cotto, Canelo, Maidana) because I knew the end result way in advance (Mayweather, decision, wide)

obviously other than Ortiz. But after Maidana took his soul and the souls of his family, everyone knocked Ortiz out.
