Do you think Pac/Margarette will do 1 to 1.5 Million PPV Buys???

With the 24/7 first episode showing Mosley whooping the **** out Margarito and the plaster fiasco will reopen some wounds..I suspect about 700k-950k..I might watch it but I won't be paying for that **** lol

Why wouldn't you watch Pacquiao on 24/7? Because he won't have intellectual convos about how Boxing has changed his life and or insulting someone? The reason I like 24/7 series is because you get to see fighters' contrast of lifestyles. If we saw nothin but Floyd every 24/7, though the Mayweather maniacs might salivate over it, but just like anything...overkill is never a good thing.

WillPacquiao vs Margarito 24/7 win an Emmy? Of course not. Are people on this website as well as the millions of people who subscribe to HBO gonna watch it? Absolutely.

And contrary to the people you've asked, the casual Boxing fans I talk to know who Margarito is and refer to him as "Mr Plaster" and they only watch the big fights. People aren't THAT clueless.

See your point but I think most people watch 24/7 for pure entertainment value. I mean JMM drinking his own piss wasn't excatly insight. I honestly think the insight into boxers lives is good but they need something to keep viewers attention.

Pac-Marg is as about intiguing as Pac-Clottey and they did 700K, I expect the numbers to rise about to 900K because of the mexican polulation being more involved with this fight than the Clottey

Excellent reasoning, Nino Brown.

1 Mil for me......

[brick wall]

I think this guy is really reaching but I expect Pac vs Margarette to do around 600 to 700K.... What do you think?

if you're just honest to yourself you should have a bigger number than that. but then...what you wish is different from what you expect.

I agree with that, but ultimately I don't see people not watching it at all if the show isn't filled with 90% comedy and 10% Boxing. Now I'm not gonna lie and say I enjoyed Roy vs Calzaghe's 24/7 (which I think we can all agree was the worst of the bunch), but there's plenty to build off both Pac and Margarito that IMO will make for an interesting 24/7.

agreed, don't see it selling more then 1 million. if it sells less, then Arum has put together 1 too many in house, pointless fights.

People thinking it's going to do 1M +...get ready to be very, very disappointed.
