HBO and their PPV's

[SweetPea]

I think this one would have done great PPV numbers.

I duno, I have to disagree here. I think it would have done very poorly. As albsur correctly noted above, Calzaghe-Kessler did the lowest rating in the history of HBO championship boxing. Hopkins has never been that big of a draw.

By all accounts, the tickets sales have been pretty mediocre too.
