Pac - Clottey numbers look to exceed 700k

[InTheNeutralCorner]

We have to consider that more than half a million household in the American northeast did not have electricity at the time of the fight

Still, not sure if this would be an excuse for poor sales if that was the case. People still pay for the event days, weeks, or months in advance so it wouldn't make that big of a difference for the sales.

Even if they have requested for it in advance, they would have already asked for a refund and that would show in the sales.

As you can see in my earlier post, I just stated the fact about the lack of electricity in more than half a million households. I did not even speculate as to how much that would affect the PPV numbers but one thing is for sure, Manny lost some PPV numbers because of that.

Considering that the amount of people in the USA to who bought the PPV is about 2.5% to who has a tv, I don't think the 500,000 households would of had much bearing, on average every 500,000 households in the USA who would of bought the fight is around about 12500 or there about's if the fight did 700,000 buys, so in reality there wasn't much difference if they had electricity or not.

I have also read where Arum said he felt the PPV #'s would be 900,000 to a million a couple days ago. The number is getting lower and lower. I think if it is over 700k, a success, but it might even be lower
