    The lifespan of PPV boxing in the US is short especially with boxing becoming a relegated sport. Fury-Wilder at $75 and anything less than 15,000 buys is a flop!!!
    Wow! That 15,001 is gonna take em far though, I’m generous let’s say 20,000!


    Serious note I think they need 500k to deem it a success but I have no idea how they will do if they struggled to even sell the live tickets

      It's been a minute since I watched a fight with other peeps, I order PPV to watch at home, my friends I watch fights with have been exclusively on NSB for a minute.

          I'm sorry, but Wilder vs Fury won't do even close to 250K in the US. More likely 100K. And only around 45% of the total PPV revenue in the US goes to the fighters.
          Wilder vs Ortiz peaked at 1.2 million views. I dont expect it to do close to that number, but 250-300k is definitely reasonable. What makes you think it wont do anything over 100k?

                  I’m a hardcore boxing fan, I know 2 people that come close to my knowledge. No one knows these guys. Drop price or free to get exposure. I wake up at 4am every morning. No one supports me. Get to work.
