Comments Thread For: Pacquiao-Broner Produces $6 Million Gate, 11,410 Tickets Sold

That's about right. Really shows just how impressive those Canelo and AJ numbers are.

[KTFOKING]

Wrong, it generated roughly 36 million, after the satellite companies get paid, and other overhead related items, Manny gets a lion share type cut, it's at LEAST 7 or 8 million.

How did you get to the 36M amount?

[Bundt]

That's impressive that a 40 year old is still the cash cow in the welterweight division.

[The tucker]

Manny wasn’t doing these numbers with Vargas, give broner some credit.

400k PPV buys at $75/$65 gets you to $30m (~$15m after paying outside parties), $6m in tickets sold at the live gate, the money from the new ITV deal, the PI sponsorship and the rest of the sponsors, the rest of the international TV, and other ******s makes it pretty clear that this event will have covered the costs and guarantees.

Upside on the event, with Pacquiao/Broner getting almost $25m, the purses for the rest of the card, and the fees to the promotors, likely will be non-existent.

I'm sorry to hear how Pacquiao has fallen. He use to be a huge superstar. I hope he retires soon and be remembered as a great fighter who never ducked anyone.

Uh, dude he's still selling 400k PPV's and beating younger guys in the mecca of boxing (Las Vegas) at 40 years old. He's not fighting in small casinos for scraps. He just made $20 million plus. What's there to feel sorry about? Sure he's not in his heyday, but when has a heyday been permanent?

[komandante]

Pac bought many of those tickets and gave it to the politicians.

Pacquiao keeps getting all the credit for the PPV and gate, but lets not forget, whether you like him or not, broner always has huge ratings himself every time he fights.

lol rookie. The gate doesn’t all to go pbc lmaaooo. It sold less than 400k as well. That’s the number the promoters put out.

This wasn’t a big fight for ITV either. The British press didn’t even cover this fight lol.

You alsonleave our Badou Jack made a hit over 1 million. They lost a few mil on the fight but I’m sure that was always the plan. May-Pac2 is where they will make it back

Great numbers all round for this one, Manny should rematch the jeffinator Jeff Horn, I don't know if he want that smoke though but we'll see.
