    I'm interested in the UK PPV as well....... we need a total for the two.... then the total value of all international rights.

    Once that is added up, I think it could be the biggest event for many years.

      Well that is good, I guess that 750K-850K was just standard PPV Buys Projection and did not include the Digital Buys through ESPN+ and FOX Sports app maybe

      As a Boxing Fan I HOPE it did 1.2 Million!

            With the amount of promotion they did which was so focused on their digital platforms I wouldn't be at all surprised if the final numbers were significantly higher than the initial estimates. The tea leaf readers trying to predict the amount of buys probably compared ESPN+ subscriber base and DirecTV subscriber base and assumed a similar ratio of subscribers to PPV buys.

              Yeah i never get this. Who cares? We got to see the fight, that’s all that matters. The money doesn’t go into my account, in fact, it left my account.

                I started with Egypt, tbh... My advice: start with Greece, then Italy, etc... (but both Greece and Italy require more than one visit...)

                    Egypt???? I love HISTORY? And I'm a geek about it. Good advice. They have any trains?? How did you travel?

                      It is important, though... because otherwise they wouldn't make the fights we want (which are already a few, anyway)...
