Arum is panicking because Crawford/Khan PPV flopped

[killakali]

If they're going to pay Pac 20M again, then there is money to be made, and everyone here don't know where it's coming from lol

Maybe there are people behind who only bet on big horses - i.e Pacman, Floyd, Canelo, etc., and bet in multi millions.

there didn’t money to be made on that fight. It’s keeping manny away from TR and if they ever can make Manny vs floyd 2 then there is money to made there and also if manny loses to errol Spence that could people Spence to a bigger ppv draw.

You need to sell a lot more than 400k ppvs to make money when Pac and his opponent have a combined 25 mil guarantee

PPVs flopping means fewer fights on PPV. Why should fans want PPVs to do well? It just means they'll be asked to pay for more fights.

true...although I don't mind paying for a legit ppv quality fight. when was the last time we got a really good fight on free tv that wasn't a premium subscription channel? anyway, people on here celebrate low ratings for pbc shows all the time. the overarching problem, is the fights people really want to see aren't getting made for the most part.

Fake news......

Media members are starting to report these numbers now. Still fake news?

Link? Source?

Not that I don't believe you, just wondering where you heard this from.

I remember when Crawford fought Postol on PPV, those numbers were terrible, how much were those numbers again? Like 60,000 ppv buys or was it 80,000, I forgot I just remember it being pretty bad.

I got it from someone i know. I've seen media members starting to report these numbers so I'm confident my source is correct.

The Postol fight did around 50k

[daggum]

fake news my sources say it did 1.2 million buys and apparently 100 percent of those that bought it did t for khan

200k for Crawford fight is massive it means the ESPN mega phone is a real thing

It was kind of pricey. I ordered it though.

A smart person who knows people who KNOW people said that PPV did under 200,000 buys, seemingly closer to 150,000. I messaged the Bobfather to get a number and will report when I hear back

I don't know if this was posted but it's a very good read.

The article I just posted confirmed crawford/postol did 55k ppv sales.

ESPN was quick with the press release for ESPN plus after the UFC first event on the app

Bob Arum on the PPV buys. “When the number is released it’ll come from ...don’t believe everything that you hear.” ****, not in this business
