I don't think that they sold many PPV'S , for as highly anticipated as the card was it sure was a dud . They didn't even sell out the little arena. In a state with such a huge population and lots of them boxing fans it surprised me that they resorted to basically giving away tickets and still didn't fill the place. Crawford sells a lot of tickets in Omaha , they should have fought there.

If you don't mind , could you please post a link to your article ? Thanks !

I don't think Turki is paying too much more than what a regular promoter might pay. Here's a good link that lists what the fighter's earned that night. I'm sure Turki promised Bud some upside on PPV sales, but as you said, I don't think the PPV sales were all that good.
