If this goes above 200k then it's a success. People are saying pac is old and past his prime and no one cares about broner so if this go beyond 200k then it's a major success.
Broner vs pac ppv buys?

The people who were gonna watch the UFC event are gonna watch it.
Same as boxing.
One or the other is not gonna matter.
I didn't watch the prelims on ESPN before the Pac-Broner event because it didn't interest me.
Now it mattered to guys who are fans of both boxing and mma.Comment

That was the entire point lol. Those casuals who watch both MMA and boxing. How can you say this PPV didn't lose any buys to those that chose to watch the big UFC card instead?The people who were gonna watch the UFC event are gonna watch it.

No, 200k is not a success at all. It better do at least 350k and probably closer to 400k if it has any chance to cover the purses for both main event fighters. I'm sure SHO gave Pacman a solid amount of money from their budget for the fight, but then he will be getting even more than anticipated if it only does 200k buys.
Over/under needs to be set at 350k.Comment

Casuals would probably choose boxing vs mma because of the guys involved. I seen nothing on my timeline about it. No friends mentioned it. Friends mentioned the last UFC event with Jones tho.Comment

The UFC fight at the time was still trending and #UFCBrooklyn was the #1 trend for a good part of the night. The overnight HH rating the prelims did was VERY good, and even topped Lomachenko/Pedraza following the Heisman Trophy presentation.Comment

I did see more promotion for UFC than Loma fight. Then again it was the ESPN premier.Comment

Both got really good lead ins, but of course the UFC is going to get more promotion as ESPN is paying WAY more fight that than boxing. TR has put both Crawford and Pacquiao on ESPN+ and never released any numbers yet they just released the amount of subscribers they got on Friday and Saturday because of the UFC card. That should tell you something there.
I wonder how much the prelims are going to do for this UFC card. If they got a 1.4 rating, I'm guessing they averaged close to 2.5M and peaked close to 3M. I mean that is a rough estimate off Lomachenko/Pedraza having a 1.0 HH rating and doing 1.85M average and 2.1M peak.Comment

Your the international numbers I believe are over 2 million. But for national I still think it did about 500k they are both big names in the sportComment

But what international buys are you talking about? Give me the country this was a PPV on aside from the US. Where are you getting the 2 million number from. Sorry, but just super confused here.Comment
