    You are talking to Robbie Barrett here... Doncaster's biggest autistic rentboy/******. He doesn't have common sense. You may as well talk to him in a foreign language.

      Doncaster?

      If you use a bit of common sense you know the claim it's estimated viewers is wrong ******.

      We all know the Joshua-Klitschko PPV did well over 1 mil BUYS, viewers would be well over 2 mil easily, Barb is reporting 1.5 mil. Obviously buys not viewers.

      I can't remember what i did to make you a salty little ***** that always cries about me. But i like it.

        And even if they did, surely they would use their own estimates and measurements and bump the number up even more to show the estimated viewers.

        Their weekly viewing figures show estimated viewers, that's it, nothing else. They are not going to just lump a PPV figure in the list without using their own measurements first. Why would they do that? it makes no sense for a company to do that when their whole game is to make estimations on viewing patterns.

        Use some common sense.

        Hearn is using estimated viewers as PPV buys, that's all he's doing.

        I know you're a big Matchroom fanboy but you have to have some common sense. It's not some mad conspiracy theory.
        Honestly I think you're a good poster from what I've seen, but in this case it's you that needs to use some common sense. Whilst the rest of the world scrambles around hiding income and under-declaring, the millionaires and guys at the highest echelon of the sport are bringing more attention on themselves from the tax man?!! For what ego?

        Nah...you're way off base with this thread. It's about the Benjamin's for these guys. Plus if you use your logic the shows which are reported to be doing 300-400k buys would be doing half that, which would make them not worth putting on ppv

        No offence, I'll respectfully agree to disagree. A lot of people will agree with you though, because of agenda driven reasons

            You know nothing salty man, you shouldn't assume. BTW giving out personal details will get you banned.

            Notice how you left out everything else because you have no common sense. You just have a butthurt agenda, i must have really hurt your little feelings.

              I actually mentioned a while back how odd it was that boxing journalist stateside are able to report PPV numbers within two weeks while in the UK no boxing journalist is doing that. Why? Do journalist in the UK just don't care about this kind of stuff or they legitimately can't get this information? If it is the latter I find that hard to believe. If you do enough digging, you should be able to get a solid idea of the numbers. No sources within the PPV industry?

              As for the OP, interesting stuff. I'm not aware at all how BARB works so I can't comment. But the Joshua point is a valid one. It was reported that one did over a million PPVs so if it was going off estimated viewership, wouldn't that one be even higher than?

                What personal details have I given out? Repeating what you said yourself isn't "giving out personal details", dimwit. You have no common sense. I have been on here for over 14 years and I've never had any real beef with anyone ever. Only those with no common sense. You haven't hurt anybody's feelings, just don't expect to traipse about here spouting your Matchroom fanboy chit without getting your card pulled.

                  Sky officially announced their numbers around 3-4 months back. They haven’t released numbers of fights since then.

                    You are giving out details about where you believe posters live. Irrelevant what has been posted in the past. It's against the rules. I could be a little ***** and snitch but i'll let it pass because you aren't the brightest. You can't argue about the facts i post so have to make little *****y remarks about me like a female (maybe you are)

                      They ALL lie about their numbers, Showtime admitted that they inflate numbers when Canelo jumped to HBO so they're all guilty
