    Yes. I work in sports TV and have friends at DirecTV. DirecTV consistently accounts for 25-30% of the PPV buys, so when DirecTV's numbers came back at a little under 150K on Sunday, that means that the total will be 600K or less.
    Ok. Respectfully, I would prefer like a media report but I take you at your word.

      Well, when the boxing media (like Rafael) just reports what the TV networks tell without doing any actual reporting or fact checking...then "media reports" are basically just network propaganda for PR purposes.

        Nice! I should have bet the over on that. A rematch will result in a Canelo win by ko IMO

          I strongly believe he will be sorely disappointed. I had absolutely no trouble ******ing this fight. For a Pac fight or a non ppv like Crawford's last one its usually a bit choppy, but for this one, smooth as velvet. No interruption for lagging or anything. That means to me that there weren't many other ******ers. If no ******ers, limited interest. Limited interest, limited buys. but we will see when the numbers come out. Oscar went from 2.5 to 1.5 to hoping for 1 million.

              Mayb people actually paid. Less ******ers. PPV IS DEAD. Just like buying music and movies.

                Maybe they did, but there will always be a certain percent that will ******, and they didn't even show interest. No movie theaters were showing the fight, and bars weren't either here in Atlanta, and we have a healthy latino population that would've supported it. I just don't think the fight was as popular as the promoters thought. Add in the fact its a week before Black Friday and you may be setting yourself up for failure.
