    Well I think he means in light of what Golden Boy were thinking it would do. In reality great figures and shows that big fights in boxing still rules the roost.

    Schaffer really jumped the gun on that one! I actually thought this fight would be way up there in buys. That number, if official, really surprises me. Everyone at work and clients I interacted with all talked about the fight the Friday before it happened. When Schaffer mentioned it might do 4 million buys I seriously thought, "there goes Golden Boy and their BS again." Oscar also said, "I fought these two guys and I know one thing, there is definitely going to be a knockout."

    One thing that I learned from all of these ....... never trust Schaefer or Arum with regards to estimating PPV buys. They are always way off the mark. I think HBO should issue a gag order on those two after the fights.

    Those are sweet numbers considering the fight was more fixed than a spade cat.
