Over/Under 450K PPV Buys for Pacquiao vs Thurman

[Boksfan]

Over, probably 500k, good dance partner for Pacquiao.

[Floyd is TBE]

Two years ago I would have said over. Run Time hurt his stock with the layoffs and his most recent poor showing

[WhatDisButtonDo]

I think anywhere from 450 k to 600 k.
Thurman can talk up the fight and is a great crap talker so probably more than that if it's marketed right.
Considering Spence/Garcia just did 400 buys, If they do under 400k that would be a failure honestly.

That's the thing. Broner does better ratings than any PBC fighter on SHO minus Wilder. Granted, Thurman's last three fights have been on CBS/FOX, so we don't have a good idea of what kind of numbers he would be doing on SHO.

One plus is this fight being on FOX and they will really promote the fight and have a bunch of shoulder programming.

I'll say 500-550k buys.

i think 450 is the right number

[Mr.365]

Spot on.

Also - despite his chin, there were many who were predicting/hoping that Broner would be KO'd.

That didn't happen. And we damn sure know there won't be a KO in this fight, which obviously takes away intrigue.

I'd go with slightly under 400k buys actually.

The intrigue is still their since the likes of Josesito Lopez landed big shots on Keith

Imagine if it was an elite fighter like Pacman landing those shots on Thurman? Pac could drop One Time down and TKO him

[Jsmooth9876]

Tough one here, 450k sounds about right but since it's Pac and a legit fight I'll go over at about 490k.

[Redd Foxx]

450 to 600k.

[Bmore18]

Ill go over around 500-525k. This is a good fight and hopefully undercard is half decent. Putting Caleb Plant on the lead-in Fox show will help

How would that help though? Plant will be on the prelims part of the show and the PPV is completely separate.

Probably get more eyes on the prelim show since he seems to do decent ratings and that whole prelim show will be a long ad for the PPV
