Bob arum claims 800k ppv buys one uk

Funny how you cited the remix of netball aka basketball, remix of cricket aka baseball and the remix of rugby aka American football. LMAO.

So in your warped mind, you don't know the country that invented the original versions of those sports still play the original versions, no? LMAO. Big dummy.

Proper fried yanks man. Jesus man some are really not with life outside their country. If it don’t involve USA it ain’t real

taking credit for your national anthem because it was originally a pub song in london before you stole it. Lmao.

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂👌👌👌👌👌

Arum claiming 1.2 in the US and 800k in the UK. Looks like he's just trying to get to his 2 mil buys prediction.

Yes my thoughts exactly. Arums full of crap. Lot of jealousy with arum/ warren on hearn

800k is a lot more believable than 50-100k tbh.

We have football, basketball,baseball, hockey, etc. You have soccer and Epsteins buddy, prince Andrew!

The UK has a **** ton of sports. The way this gets baselessly repeated on every thread to downplay the UK turning out for boxing is hilarious.

The average american boxing fan is jealous of the UK turn out in boxing.
They know their problems thou but are shy to confront it.

Considering AJ vs unknown Ruiz did 500k, I don't think 800k Wilder vs Fury 2 is beyond the realms of possibility...though it wasn't on sky, it was on BT and i'm not sure that's a particularly popular platform. However if the 800-850k PPV buys in North America are correct, the fight is likely to lose money. Seriously if the biggest fight in the sport this year can't make money, it's time to make some very fundamental changes.

A few key differences.

1) AJ has a HUGE following. Fury isn’t as the same level. Remember Joshua has multiple 60-80k stadium sell outs, fury has none.

2) the time difference does matter too. Fury was on at 5am, so much harder to just stay up for. Joshua Ruiz was early morning hours so more doable.

3) fury wilder was on bt and not sky (it shouldn’t matter but it does)

4) fury wilder was more expensive

5) the Joshua Ruiz card was epic from a uk perspective. It wasn’t just a single big fight, it had several - it was mouthwatering to be honest.
