Manny Pacquiao-Keith Thurman FOX PPV generated in the neighborhood of 500K buys

Rick Glaser has spoken lol

says the "real" PPV number is 458,000 PPV buys

That's in line with Mike Coppinger reporting.

If he knew the real numbers why didn't he come out before Copp with the real numbers?

[KTFOKING]

More importantly than just the PPV number was that FOX negotiated a different deal than the usual 50/50 split. Wonder what kind of split they ended up getting as not every cable company got to promote the fight.

Wait for Pacman to leave.

Once he leaves someone else will emerge. I mean they may tweak the way they do PPVs like the UFC did, but PPVs aren't going anywhere any time soon.

Dead in the middle of summer, too, for those of you asking why this didn’t perform exponentially better than Pacquiao-Broner. Viewers are on vacation, have more plans, etc. https://t.co/G6CD1DCThd

Idiotic statement from Coppinger. Prior to the switch to Mexican holidays, the highest ppv numbers were always in the summer as they did not have to compete with college football.

Tyson Holyfield 2 1.99M buys 6/28
Tyson-Lewis 1.9M 6/8
Tyson McNeely 1.55M 8/19
Floyd-McGregor- August

500K is an excellent buy rate for a Manny bout with a non-hispanic/floyd dance partner. 400k vs Bradley, 400k vs Broner

Pacman vs the winner of spence porter will do a million plus buys. Fox is really stepping up. So far they have done really well with thier first two ppv shows, 450 with spence and 500 with pac thurman.
Fox really investing in boxing unlike espn they never gave a **** about boxing when they had Friday night fights. Never promoted any of the shows on their sports shows.

Pac-thurman PPV was more than 600k buys.

This is great for Boxing!

Pacquiao is very popular in America.

Solid numbers. That's probably about as good as it gets.

Maybe a Spence vs. Pacquiao fight, if it ever happens, in March could generate 700K. But this is the reality of the PPV market.
