The article he posted said "over $2 million in PPV buys." Over $2M divided by $50 (price per buy) = over 400,000 buys.
uhhh 2 million divided by 50 gives 40,000
LOL that was a nice try on the calculations but it really does not work that way. You also have to add the pubs and other businesses that bought the fight. I saw a contract from a frind of mine that owns a pub and he had to pay 10 bucks per person that showed up. He had 90 people in the place, thats 900 bucks right there. And his place aint that big or popular.
How do they possibly know how many people that turned up at every pub? There's no possible way they could know other than to have enforcers in every pub across America, and the costs of that would outweigh several hundred times the amount of money they would make from any PPV
Well I guess there is no way they could know for certain. But in this case he charged 10 bucks for entery. Everything he made at the door goes to Don King everything made at the bar goes to the owner. Yes the owner can cheat and say there was less amount of people than there actueally was. But there is also a minimum amount you have to pay. Don't know that number for sure.
