The December 6th pac vs hoya is not gonna do more then 650k buys!

[albsur2006]

The ufc 91 was like 40 bucks so it was able to do 800k which is amazing in this economy plus Boxing in America is not as big as it is...Thats why I am going for 650k buys.

no way it even passes the 1.5 million mark or even gets to the 1 million mark.

Not many people know about this fight and sad to say the people want a drama queen like floyd jr to hate to make them order the fight.

hbo thought calzaghe vs jones jr would do around 700-800k buys with the 24/7 and look how horrbile it did 250k buys thats a failure especially with the millions invested in both fighters and the series.

Yeah, right when JoeCal-RJJ only did 250K even with a 24/7 and Hopkins-Pavlik only did 200K, I think Golden Boy and Top Rank started getting worried. I knew about the JoeCal-RJJ 24/7 and I didn't even watch more than 10 mins of the entire series. I didn't really care about the fight. And I'd like to consider myself a fairly hardcore boxing fan.

No way this fight does over a million buys IMO, people aren't gonna wanna pay to see two "good guys" fight each other when the match up is this bad.

Most people I know and have talked to about the fight think Manny is going to win.

same here i went to church the other day and people i didnt even know were talking about it.

and Moono no matter wat u say the fight will sell because Oscar fights always sell and Pacman has alot of fans who will buy the PPV.

Its all about supply and demand, it seems the boxing world has not clued into this over a century old economic philosophy.

America is so cheap compared to how us Brits pay our way but $54 for a PPV is about £26-28 or so? am I close?

It's only about £15 for us Brits (so about $30)..........you can get a loaf of bread for that over here.....just

[Kirkland Laing]

My uneducated guess is closer to a million than 650K.

[Kel]

It will crack the million mark I reckon also
