There is no way Mayweather vs. McGregor fails it will do 5.5 to 8.5 million ppv buys

It did and, essentially, if you were a boxing fan you were going to watch that fight. Period.

This fight is widely known to be a farce so it's mostly selling to the ignorant who don't know May is virtually guaranteed to win. It has "STREAM ME" written all over it.

This is one of those fights where you're at your boys house on a Saturday night, a few people are over, and you go, "oh, I think such and such fight's on, stream that **** real quick." And that's all.

It ain't one of those fights where you plan your entire night around.

a girl who has never talked boxing or mayweather did a snapchat about people 'coming her house to watch'. then another girl spoke about it from nz. its a big event

Don't expect boxing fans esp Philipinos and Mexicans to pay 100 for this fight when Canelo vs GGG is 2 weeks ahead.

LMFAO bull****! The Pac/May fight was waaaaay bigger than this. You just have very short term memory. Everyone and their mama was talking about that fight, and boxing, MMA, golf, tennis, all sports fans, including yo mama bought that fight.

I'm so interested in this because I don't know which way it's going to go. I'm hoping it fails to draw because it's a farce. It's a movie script come to life in my book.

The reasoning I heard recently was this; they expect the hardcore boxing fans wont buy it. They are counting on fans who don't watch either boxing or MMA to tune in for the spectacle. Plus they think the MMA fans are going to buy it. That's a gamble if you ask me.

Speaking for myself, I'm not buying it but I'm seeing it for free. We got invited to a house party with people we've never met formally, and it turns out they are having people over for the fight.

I'm quite curious what kind of people they are, because I'm curious who would order this nonsense.

I'm hoping my wife lets me take some betting money in case there are any very confident McGegor fans there who want to bet. I'm 99.999% sure what's going to happen, and I'd love to be able to make some money on it.

My thoughts exactly.

Everyone was buzzing about May-Pac because you had people divided on who was going to win.

Everyone already knows whose going to win this fight, except a few MMA idiots.

And the demographics show the MMA fans don't have the pockets the boxing fans do.

I think i had said 2.5 mill before, i still dont think it breaks the record, i just see this fight being popular for parties like myself is, I'll increase it 3mill max

Yes it is.

I'm at a resort in Mexico right now and that's a featured event this week. Mayweather-McGregor at the sports bar.

Just another fight though, right?
