If we don't reach the record, we're going to be very, very close," Stephen Espinoza told The Los Angeles Times, "we consider it a massive success."

Espinoza says that it is too early to have an exact number, but that the event sold an estimated mid-to-high 4 million PPV buys domestically. Mayweather vs. Pacquiao sold a record breaking 4.6 million PPVs in May of 2015, smashing the previous record of 2.4 million, held by Mayweather and Oscar De La Hoya in 2007.

Chalk up another W to appealing to the lowest common denominator :mjgrin:


...Hypothetically if McGregor and Canelo headlined a card at AT&T stadium, would it do huge numbers? :jbhmm:

I just don't see that, especially at 99.99. At 69.99 I can see 1.5m. But everyone would be tuning in to see Conor get his head knocked into the 3rd row so I don't see the MMA legion tuning in that heavy.
You're probably right.

My thought process was:

Canelo = 1 milli guaranteed every ppv
Conor = 1 milli guaranteed every ppv

add em up and you get 2 milli lol
