So much for boycott then.

I really thought it was only gonna do 800-900k.

Damn. This could mean Margo will get his $4M bonus.

I am quite bummed as well on that one... Seems like Uncle Bobby has a very long fork, long enough to eat with the devil.

I'm glad it did good numbers. My spite for Marg doesn't overwhelm my love for the sport. Bit lower then early estimates, but that is to be expected. More then respectable. Numbers expected to climb a bit too when final tallies in.

this only proves one thing, that without mexican fighters, pacquiao is NOT that big of PPV star his fans try to make him out to be. when he fought joshua clottey, what were the PPV numbers? 7-800,000? a mayweather/margarito PPV event would have reached about 1.5 million or more. facts are facts!

A speculation on how many numbers Mayweather-Margarito would do is based on facts? Does anyone see the logical fallacy in this?

I'm pretty sure Cotto wasn't Mexican when that fight did 1.2 million.

50,994 attended in Pacquiao-Clottey fight. And only 41,000something attended in Pac-Marg fight.

By your logic, There must be more Ghanian folks in Texas than Mexican huh?

You can't have the word 'about' in the same sentence as the word 'fact'. It loses it's meaning.

How do you know the boycott wasn't effective?

Maybe the boycott was effective. But not much.

[Julius Rain]

Anybody got a list of the most PPV buys in the last 5 years?
