    So where do you think the PPV buys end up for last nights event?

    I have a hard time seeing it doing a good number.
    Wasn’t trending at any point on social media.
    Not even mentioned on ESPN’s home page (not surprising with ESPN’s deal with UFC)
    Was up against a UFC fight that had some mainstream buzz with the pre fight **** talk.)
    Purely anecdotal but I was at a friends house who purchased the UFC event. Had three TV’s. One for the fights, one for Lakers/Nuggets, one for the NHL finals.
    No talk of boxing. Ended up finding the first Charlo fight on my phone and watched the second when I got home.
    Where do you all think the buys come in at? What number would make it a successful event?

    200-250k probably. Absolute best case scenario realistically would be around 350k but thats optimistic.

      No way it did that range.

      In the 100-120k range sounds about right. Maybe slightly less even.

        Just OK I doubt it did big numbers with UFC happening at the same time

        Social Media was talking and buzzing mostly about Adesanya vs Costa so I'm sure that fight likely cracked 1 Million Buys or very close to it

          Surprisingly no one on my social media was talking about the UFC fight.

          One person mentioned "fight" but in their comments said it was the Charlo PPV.

          About 5 or 6 other people mentioned the Charlo fight as well.

          The same amount menntioned college football.

          A few less mentioned the Lakers-Nuggets series.

          I'd say between 100-150k
          I'd be shocked if it did more.

                It's definitely under 100k. I'll go with 30-50k.

                    I was surprised to learn that buying it wasn’t an option with my satellite. I’ve only seen that happen a few times in a very long time. Had to stream it. Not a good sign. Paper pushers messed up.
