I'll believe it when I see it with my own eyes something official.
lol much as I want to know the numbers, it is even more fun watching the speculation around it. I had 2 friends buy it for their first ever PPV sports buy. so it prob. like 1.4 mill. Give or take a million.
I just hope it beat out that UFC card and shut Dana White up about boxing being dead and Floyd not having drawing power.
I thought I did post here, so either my post has been deleted or like a dumbass, I forgot to press "submit reply" and closed the window.
Personally, I think that 1.6 millions is overspeculation, especially when the only person saying it is an analyst from Yahoo who isn't that much of an insider. Pure speculation and I doubt Mayweather did drag so much attention for 2 reasons:
1) the crowd was more or less 80% Marquez supporter at the fight.
2) they had to postponed the fight because it wasn't selling enough. I can imagine and agree that the 24/7 did a lot to boost the interest but from there to make it a total flop to the biggest success thinkable... I really doubt so.
My personal pick would be around 500 000 buyers, not much than that. WE will have the official numbers in the meantime but I am absolutely certain, personally, that the number will convince anybody that Mayweather doesn't deserve half of the purse, especially when Manny (which I am not a fan, by the way) is the one dragging audience and attention.

That's the way it is, not the way it ends
UFC is followed by those who watch a combination of WWE, jackie chan and more often than not people who take themselves way too seriously. How many times have i read stuff along the lines of on a UFC forum...
"i train for MMA and could easily kill a man with 1 finger to the temple"
Boxing is a mans sport. If you like beer, women and have a large social circle of friends you tend to be a boxing fan. If however you find yourself spending your friday evenings online chatting about the latest episode of dragonball z and can list at least 20 shaolin movies then your a faggy UFC wannabe!!!!!!
one dangerous horrible bloke
Hahaha! That post made me laugh.
Where do I fall? I don't like beer but would say I like women and have a fairly big social circle. I used to watch Dragonball Z, WWE and could probably list about 7-8 martial arts movies
Hate UFC but love boxing...and could probably kill a man with a whole hand to the temple after a few attempts.![]()
