Pac-Cotto does 1.25 million buys

[amat]

I honestly thought it would be significantly more then that but oh well, it was a great fight and maybe it is just because I'm in the Bay Area. The buzz around here was much bigger for this one then the Mayweather fight. Of course people always underestimate the buying power of Mexicans who no doubt drove up the PPV buys more then we would think.

Lol, Amat nobody underestimates the buying power of Mexicans, they're the group who most boxing promoters target. People do underestimate the numbers of black people who buy fights, that's more likely what drove the PBF-JMM fight's numbers up. The Mayweather fight was far bigger amongst people I know, but then maybe that's because I don't know many Filippinos or Puerto Ricans

I'm just talking about fans in general though. Before the fight people were predicting like 400-500 thousand buys for Mayweather-Marquez, most of those attributed to Floyd's selling power, and I think the disparity is due to people underestimating how many Mexicans would buy the PPV. Not promoters, they know that's why Arum has all those Latin Fury cards.
