    Default How much PPV buys would it take ........

    .......... for you to consider the Pacquiao-Clottey fight a success?

    I have to put several things into considerations such as Pacquiao's previous PPV buys, the PPV draw of his opponent, the fact that this fight is between two non-American, and the strength of the organized conspiracy perpetuated by the Mayweather clan & the posters in this forum. Okey, I lied with regards to that last one.

    I would say 700,000.

    I would agree with 700,000. Anywhere around that would be a good number.

    Welcome to the forum. I hope you enjoy your stay. I haven't been here that long and they might kick me out already.

    I think guys with the drawing power of Pac and Mayweather they could get around 700,000 fighting B level fighters almost everytime. So I think 700,000 is not necessarily successful but more like the number they must at least garner. I don't think anyone would expect that Pac/Clottey is going to do less than that figure. So that figure is really the starting point. I think its feasible for Pac/ Clottey to get to 1 million. Pac has a strong following and as long as he is fighting a live opponent then he should be good on the PPV buys. So for success of this fight I think 850,000+ is a good figure. And I think it will reach it.

    Dela Hoya-Mayorga only did 600K+

    I would say DelaHoya is more popular than Pac and Mayorga is more known than Clottey.

    600K is already a success.

    As irrelevant as this fight was De la Hoya/Mayorga did 935,000 PPV buys. Top Pay Per View Events in Boxing History

    I would consider 400,000 - 500,000 a modest success. It's a bit of a let-down of a fight and Clottey isn't that well known. If it has a strong undercard I could see it doing very well.

    I'd say 700k and up would be successful.

    Of course if it were to do something like 250k I would just laugh my ass off and that Pac's team fukked up again. That was the number Pac-David Diaz did.

    That's a good one CFH.
    What? You're not kidding? I might as well just join this Mime Forum that I saw. I'll try it in here first to see if I'll fit in there .............
